If you need to rest your hand on it or read an article, to understand how it works, that's a major fail in the design.

AFAICT, it isn't "Windows", but "Windows 10 only". Is this correct?

Against which toolkit did you compile? Carbon, Cocoa or X11?

Strange nobody mentioned wxWidgets so far which gives you true native apps, so I'll do it: http://wxwidgets.org It provides API layer which compiles to Win32 API on Windows, Gtk2 on Linux and Carbon/Cocoa on Mac OSX. Q

> Rotates and scales about the center of images You can specify the rotation point in SDL2. Calculating corner coordinates is simple trigonometry. But the rest seems useful. Thanks.

I looked at the demos and I still fail to see the point of using this over SDL2. SDL2 is already high performance and uses DirectX / OpenGL underneath. What exactly does this library bring to the table?

The Stanley Parable? I mean, without the script and voice acting, it would seem pretty dull.

If they made Ctrl-E work when you load the file for the first time, none of this would be the problem.

by babuskov 10y ago
There isn't one. Ctrl-shift-e is "Export As" which opens a save dialog. Ctrl-e doesn't show up until you save the file manually at least once.

by babuskov 10y ago
Ctrl-E is not available on newly opened .png files. You need to save at least once for it to work. (At least on Mac version of Gimp).
