MapTool ChangeLog (by build version): Difference between revisions

Latest revision as of 23:59, 27 April 2023

MapTool ChangeLog (for the source code)

Note: This ChangeLog is for the 1.3 versions of MapTool. MapTool source code is now housed on GitHub. Newer versions of MapTool and their associated changelogs can be found on the GitHub MapTool Page.

This page will attempt to document the on-going changes to the MapTool source code by those individuals who have Commit authority to the Subversion repository on Sourceforge.net.

Ideally, I'd like to see an actual ChangeLog for each build of MapTool as well as an "in my queue right now" list, but the latter is unlikely to be kept up to date (even by me!) so I'll settle for just a ChangeLog. :)

Since the RPTools team has not been using the SourceForge bug tracker for 1.3 there hasn't been a comprehensive list of bugs/features being worked on (long story, but we will be using the Mantis bug tracker for 1.4). I have provided a list of Things I'd Like to See Fixed for 1.3 but there is no guarantee expressed or implied that any of them will come to fruition!

Where to find more information

For information about how to download (a.k.a. checkout) the source code, please see the thread on our forum that discusses that topic: How to get RPTools source via Eclipse and subversion. Another topic worth reviewing is a stream of consciousness thread by Azhrei regarding notes on how to build the application using Eclipse: MapTool build notes for Eclipse.

Loading a campaign now releases all drawables when only eraser drawables still remain after optimization.
Exporting campaign properties didn't properly save table images, so loading them later caused FileNotFound errors. Exported tables work fine. Related to this report? http://forums.rptools.net/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=15452&p=165978#p165955
Better handling of FileNotFound errors in general.
Fix for asset directory disappearing or not being accessible.
Add support for platform-specific image filetypes using conditional Java 6 code. On pre-Java 6 the list of filename extensions remains hard-coded to gif, jpg, jpeg, bmp, and png but Java 6 systems may have additional formats (tiff and wbmp are common).
Modified how performance data is reported by Tools>Collect Performance Data.
Renamed README to README.wri so it opens in Wordpad on Windows (it's still just an ordinary text file).

Allow development version to have any client version connect to it (primarily for developer use).
Renamed PDF of documentation to match MapToolLauncher.exe.
Some fog performance issues cleaned up; hopefully less lag.
non-SnapToGrid tokens on hex map no longer snap to grid.
Add a comment to the chat window (and via popup) when fog toolbar is used the first time with no server running (a warning about using IF features with no server).
Add yes/no confirmation to clear fog when importing a map.
Holding down Shift when mousing over a token prevents stat sheet from being displayed (see window's statusbar help message).
Fixed how duplicate maps are named on import.
jay - InitiativePanel was not being handled properly during campaign load, causing the panel to be cleared sometimes.

CoveredInFish - found a Java bug with the drag/drop support; not going to be fixed in 1.3. Drag the image to your desktop first, then from there to MapTool.

1.3 Final p01 (1.3.b84; released 2011-02-09)

Patchlevel 01:

Fixed NPE when dragging a token on a gridless map (and certain conditions are met).
Updated documentation on Campaign Properties dialog Light tab.
Fixed NPE in setting token name regarding calling isTrusted().
Fix rendering of token names/labels on mouseover.

Updated French translation (see credits)

1.3 Final (1.3.b83; released 2011-02-08)

Removed binary Abeille forms from SVN (not a user-visible change).
The MapExplorer was showing players too much information.
Resizing a rotated object image will ignore the Shift key (which constrains the size); I recommend setting the size first, then rotating.
Changing the token's image via the EditTokenDialog didn't update the token's native width/height.
Fixed "you are not the GM" dialog popping up during copyToken() in a trusted function.
Fix bug in handling of non-existent images dropped onto a map (race condition).
Adding logging in HTMLPane to try to locate why mouseClick events are lost in frames.
Updated display of credits in the About MapTool dialog.
Added lots of comments to English translation file to describe how to do translations.
New Japanese translation added (based on SVN revision 5623 so very current).
Cause light sources and auras to be sorted alphabetically on the right-click menu.
Changed the algorithm that determines if a token may move into a particular location. Only works for square grids. New maps are constrained to a grid size of at least 9 pixels to support the new algorithm.
As part of the previous item, code has been refactored to make it easier to write similar algorithms for gridless and hex maps.
Added error trapping for corrupted campaign files to give users a better message.
Added data from the Collect Performance Data window to log.txt (must be enabled in the XML files that are part of the ZIP download).
Changed typing notification window status so it doesn't interfere with the mouse pointer shape when drawing VBL or templates.

Fixed NPE when working with gridless maps and using the middle mouse button http://forums.rptools.net/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=17340&start=30#p184966
Changed the token editor dialog so that the Size dropdown field has the correct first entry (either Native Size or Free Size depending on whether the token is on the Token layer or another layer)
Fixed bug where the token editor dialog was only initializing the Size field once and populating it with the sizes for the grid type on that map so changing maps to a different grid type showed the wrong sizes!
Added the ability to double-click on the Layout panel image (on the token editor dialog's Config tab) to reset the position and zoom
Added a status bar message when the mouse enters the Layout panel
Fixed currentToken() when multiple tokens with identical names are selected and a macro is executed that has ApplyToSelected active http://forums.rptools.net/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=17442&p=185550#p185550
Fixed bug in table handling that could cause an existing table to be deleted if it were to be renamed and had a syntax error in the range field, then the user Cancel-ed the dialog
Fixed text labels not appearing to players although they show up fine for the GM
Fixed MapExplorer showing NPC information that it didn't previously
Added support for the VisibleToOwnerOnly flag for drag/drop between CharacterTool and MapTool (implemented in MapTool only)

Token movement now occurs below fog so it's not visible to players unless the fog has been exposed
Data from "export screenshot" saved correctly in campaign file (previous fix was incomplete)
Fixed drag/drop of files from desktop onto map on Linux/OSX (now allows multiple files to be dropped at once)
Fix NPE when selected token is deleted by macro then moved by user without unselecting and re-selecting
Fix NPE when Impersonation panel tries to refresh without a map visible
Fix NPE when loading campaign from 1.3b45 (bug in macro button handling)
Change getInfo() so the light source information is more detailed when campaign is the topic being queried (should add preferences somewhere as well)
Fix fog-of-war not being updated when a token was copy/pasted from another map
Entries in i18n.properties for slash commands now use the same key format as menu items (not a user-visible change)
All forms converted from .jfrm to .xml (not a user-visible change, but please report any display problems with dialog boxes)
Fix copy/paste of tokens so that relative offsets between tokens are preserved; works whether source or destination maps are gridless
Added audio feedback: Copy and Cut beep when no (owned) tokens are selected and Paste beeps if no tokens have yet been copied or cut
Change to allow token editor dialog's Properties tab to resize with the dialog window; this is a Java6-only change! We need a Java5-compatible method of doing this before 1.3 Final
Halo colors are updated to the same list as button and font colors
aku - huge number of strings have been localized and now appear in the i18n.properties translation file
aPown - updated German translation
Natha - updated French translation
patoace - updated Spanish translation

Fix token.readResolve() so that pre-1.3b66 tokens (those without a CaseInsensitiveHashMap) can be read properly (warning: ugly backward compatibility code!)
Updated getInitiativeList() (and wiki) so that it checks for trusted context; includes small performance optimization
Fixed NPE in InitiativeListCellRenderer.java (line 174) so that the init panel doesn't try to render a token that doesn't exist
