Added
- Added a toolbox panel with common commands (#188, #300, @nbrunett).
- Added support for volume swells (#17).
- Added MIDI playback support for alterations of pace (#18).
- Added new commands (
Note -> Shift String Up
andNote -> Shift String Down
) to shift notes up or down by a string (#20). - Ties, hammer ons, pull offs, and slides can now be created between notes in adjacent systems (#27).
- Added a dark theme for the score view, based on the user's system theme (#286, @mostafa-nabil).
- Left hand fingerings now support thumbs. This is also now supported by the Guitar Pro 6/7 importers (#292).
- The song information can now store a subtitle. This is also now supported by the Guitar Pro 6/7 importers (#297).
- Several improvements to the view filter dialog. In particular, it now displays a list of the players that will be displayed when the filter is used (#295).
- Several improvements to the Guitar Pro 3/4/5 importer:
- It now shares most of its code for converting to the Power Tab format with the GP6/7 importers, fixing a variety of layout / conversion issues.
- Artificial and tapped harmonics are now imported.
- Bends are now imported (#30).
- Musical directions are now imported.
- The initial tempo marker's name and visibility is now imported.
- Wide vibrato, left hand fingerings, and the song's subtitle are now imported.
- Fixed issues where imported tied notes could incorrectly have a fret number of 0 instead of the previous note's fret.
Changed
- The
Position -> Shift Forward
andPosition -> Shift Backward
menu items have been renamed toInsert Space
andRemove Space
, to hopefully reduce confusion with the new string shifting commands (#20). - Unit tests now depend on the doctest library instead of
Catch2
. This is more lightweight (while still providing all of the necessary features) and is more widely available on Linux distros.
Fixed
- Improved the size and alignment of the treble and bass clef glyphs.
- Improved standard notation layout when a note is staccato and also has an accent.
- Improved alignment of accents in the standard notation staff.
- Improved vertical positioning of trills and dynamics symbols.
- Fixed a bug where editing the zoom text caused it to turn black, making it unreadable with a dark system theme.
- Fixed a potential crash in the Edit View Filters dialog when a string pattern was invalid (#295).
