v1.4.0

[wojtryb]

What's new in 1.4.0

Added

• 3 new pie menus for triggering krita actions
• Available labels in ScrollArea are now grouped, similarily to the ways presets are organized in tags
• Behavior when closing a pie with cursor in deadzone can be configured:
  • Do nothing - acts like it did in previous versions
  • Pick top - activates topmost label

    Since now: default for "Pick painting blending modes" and "Pick transform tool modes"

  • Pick previous - activates label previously selected with this pie

    Since now: default for all 4 preset pies

• Label to be selected with two new deadzone modes is marked with border of different color
• Pie menu appearance was modified to fix visual inconsistencies and help to distinguish selected labels
• Pie menus can use colors (background and active pie) from krita theme
• Colors and opacity of all pie menus can be configured globally from Configure Shortcut Composer menu
• Colors and opacity of specific pie menu can be configured locally from its local settings
• Pie configuration can be reset to default with Reset pie preferences button in its local settings

Fixed

• Fix "release key event" not being triggered on non-latin keyboard layouts
• Names of tools and blending modes are now exactly the same as in krita
• Scroll area will no longer expand settings horizontally

Note

This update modifies how key release event is detected. Now, releasing any key (including modifiers like ctrl or shift) will cause all onging actions to end.

This may affect workflows depending on using multiple actions at once, but the new solution is less error-prone and I believe it is a way to go. Thank you for understanding.
