More rewrites.. Now, all of the loading and storing code has been rewritten. The XML
reader/writer is not very optimized at this point, and could have trouble reading
data that is not written by vAGI itself. It will be fixed later on.
As well, a slew of bugfixes.
2002-05-15:
Added DRAG AND DROP of patterns. Just click and drag in the sequence editor. You can even drag
between resources, and between applications! ;)
Added help texts on every menu item, as well as in the pattern editor. Look in the status bar.
Added more code to the Manage Pattern dialog. It's actually useable now.
Fixed some more bugs, as always...
2002-05-08:
Rewrote the Sound Editor classes, now the two edit modes share the same base class (pheeew...)
Added some code in the Manage pattern dialog
Added OLE clipboard support in Sound Editor. You can now copy and paste patterns between resources.
Added picture resource. Mostly renders at this point, even though most of the code is done "behind".
Fixed _loads_ of bugs.
2002-04-27:
Fixed some scrollbar issues
Added some logic editor syntax coloring code
Added some view editor code (right now only in debug, so you won't see anything ;)
2002-04-24:
Fixed some serious errors with exported resources.
Added instrument selection when exporting MIDI file.
Added the resource properties dialog.
2002-04-23:
Added noise editing. I have yet to see an AGI resource using noise, but it is done according to AGISpecs.
Added rudimentary MIDI export
Fixed bug with scrollbars when importing a resource (thanks Joel!)
2002-04-22:
Fixed tempo bug when exporting resources. (how come no-one discovered this one? ;)
Added some code for the Logic resource. Right now it's just a simple text editor.
2002-04-21:
Fixed numerous bugs in the file import routine (thanks Joel!)
Added pattern properties dialog (to be able to change pattern name/rows)
Began adapting the application for future use with other resources (view, picture etc.)
2002-04-15:
First public release of the rewritten sound editor.
