Changes in Sonic Visualiser 1.8
since the previous release (1.7.2):
- Sonic Visualiser now registers as a file
type handler on OS/X, providing better
integration with the desktop generally (Dan
Stowell).
- There is a new function to toggle all Time
Rulers at once (key #).
- The CSV import dialog has been overhauled,
allowing more flexible selection of purpose for
each column.
- Text overlays are now easier to read on dark
backgrounds.
- Hidden layers are now ignored when exporting
an image (Dan Stowell).
- A crash when starting a new session or
exiting the application after loading a session
with saved alignment data has been fixed.
- The duplication of right-button menu
functions when multiple files were loaded has
been fixed.
- The layer-add menu functions now have
shortcuts (Dan Stowell).
- The codebase has been reorganised into
libraries and a configure step added. It should
be easier to build and maintain on OS/X and
Linux than previously, although it won't make
much difference on Windows.
- A Czech translation is now included (thanks
to Pavel Fric).

Visualiser is to be the first program you reach for
when want to study a musical recording rather than
simply listen to it.
