News in ffDiaporama 1.4:

Reframing:
- It exists different standard for geometry of photos: 3/2, 4/3, 16/9 ...This ratio is calculated as follows: width / height
- The problem was that this calculation was not still just, so, according to the manufacturer, of 3/2 can be 1.5 or 1.49 or 1.51 etc... because the sensors photos are not every same. This small delta seems low but it generated errors in previous version.
- To there, the styles were static. That is I had used the photos of a CANNON to predefine all the styles. But, with photos of other manufacturers, I had lines in more or less.
- I thus saw revised all the system to not use any more static styles but dynamic styles (formulae mathematical rather than pre-calculated values).
- That is why I have of to delete the possibility of creating user styles for coordinates and framing because the user cannot enter formulae.
- This change causes modifications in the option, edition of slides and edition of image dialogs.

Forms of shape:
- Other big modification concerns the addition of about 60 additional forms for the image and video masks and the blocks of text.

Other :
- Added 1 Gb memory profile for Windows Vista/7
- Changed image and video icons in Slide edit dialog: display workspace zone and effect zone and enlarged the icons a notch
- Deleted framing style management in Image edit dialog and replaced geometry locking combo and the 3 default framing buttons with a new combo containing a lot of predefined styles
- Did what was needed for framing always apply when rotation is changing in Image edit dialog when a predefined non custom style is selected
- Replaced old combo for framing style with the new one in Slide edit dialog when a block is of type image or video
- Replaced the couple button of style/name of the coordinate styles in the Edit slide dialog by one combo containing styles by default (deleted the possibility of creating personalized coordinate styles)
- Reviewed option dialog to use new framing and new coordinates styles
- Improve the precision of the rulers of the interactive zones of Edit Image and Edit Slide dialogs
- Added the possibility to use .wmv video
- Added a lot of new shape forms and modfied combo of selection of shape forme in Edit Slide dialog to a Custom Combo
- Bug fixed of "Add project" button which did nothing
