IrfanPaint Changelog

What's new in IrfanPaint 0.4.13.70

Mar 13, 2012
  • This release fixes a bug in the previous one which made selections not working correctly with the current IV version.
  • It also includes some hacks to make IrfanPaint work better with the new IV selections handling.
  • Note: it's strongly advised to update from .67 and .69 to this release, since the former includes a serious memory leak bug, and the latter makes working with selections almost impossible.

New in IrfanPaint 0.4.13.69 (Mar 13, 2012)

  • This release contains a bug that make working with selections almost impossible. It's strongly advised to install a more recent version.
  • This release just fixes a memory leak in the advanced eraser tool; if the Paint palette was kept open while browsing several images, the advanced eraser tool didn't deallocate the memory for the old backup DIBs; this lead to memory exhaustion, general system slowdown (on old machines) and to instability of IrfanView and IrfanPaint (thanks to Leo Breuss, Homer Seywerd and Irfan Skiljan for reporting and testing).

New in IrfanPaint 0.4.13.67 (Jul 15, 2010)

  • DibSection class almost rewritten.
  • Message cracker macros used in almost all the code.
  • Almost all "normal" pointers replaced by smart pointers.
  • Different exception handling policy (the Retry and Ignore options have Been removed, they proved to be dangerous).
  • New generic text mappings functions used.
  • More precise zoom value obtained from IV (float instead of int).
  • Fixed the "off-screen toolbar" bug.
  • Fixed the bug in the localization of the Edit measurement unit dialog.
