Xfce4 Screenshooter 1.4.90

Xfce4 Screenshooter 1.4.90 est sorti ce matin, il contient tous les changements que j'avais annoncé dans mon précédent billet. Cette version est normalement plutôt stable, il manque surtout des traductions donc la 1.5.0 devrait sortir bientôt.

Les sources sont disponibles ici et il y a un nouveau site Internet.

Changelog en anglais

The application is now named "Xfce4 Screenshooter", the adress of the SVN trunk has changed and the one of the website too. See the README file. xfce4-panel dependency has been bumped to >= 4.4.

Bugfixes:

• correctly grab active windows. In particular, menus are grabbed now (bug #4611).
• correctly save the preferences, even if ~/.config/xfce4 does not exist. Thanks to Nick Schermer for the explanations.
• when saving the screenshot fails, show an error dialog explaning why it failed.
• fix some remaining crashes when taking a screenshot of the active window.
• only read the preferences file once when opening the application.
• don't automatically set filenames in the file chooser, as user set ones are overriden (bug #4748).

Enhancements:

• Use -V for the version CLI option.
• Add possibility to copy the screenshot to the clipboard, thanks to David Collins.
• Add possibility to define region to be captured using the mouse, thanks to David Collins.
• Add CLI options for the region selection and to open the screenshot with an application.
• The dialog for the plugin preferences and the application has been totally rewritten to improve the user interface: it should look cleaner and tooltips have been added. Work started by David Collins.
• When using delay, detect the area to screenshot after the delay, and not before, as it caused weird results in some cases.
• Add a documentation accessible from the application and the panel plugin.
