Upgrades

Photodesk Upgrades

Version 3.08 is now available. This contains several important changes and bugfixes:

• All the sources have been changed from inline Basic Assembler into ObjAsm which allows for easier maintenance & debugging.
• The "high memory address" problem on the Iyonix (and the RiscPC with big memory) has been addressed! This previously sometimes stopped PhotoDesk from running at all. This has also fixed many of the 'not enough memory' errors that various functions frequently failed with. It also has the side effect of improving PhotoDesk's stability on the Iyonix PC.
• PhotoDesk now has a valid AIF header for compatibility with the A9home and RISC OS 6
• The SpecialFX plug-ins "Box Blur" and "Gaussian Blur" no longer overwrite white pixels!
• On the Iyonix 'selecting part of an image' caused the machine to slow down massively making it unusable. This problem, referred to by some as 'Crawling ants', has now been fixed by totally rewriting the method used.
• "Copy" and "Paste" now works.
• The SpecialFX "Shadow Outline" no longer causes crashes.
• The TwainPDIF module is now 32bit, (Thanks druck!)
