Show proportional rectangles comparing original image dimensions
(gray) vs target output dimensions (blue). Preview updates live
as the user changes width/height values. Uses first loaded image
for actual dimensions when available.
Upgrade the Add Images step from a plain ListBox to a GtkGridView
with thumbnail rendering. Each item shows a scaled thumbnail with
a checkbox overlay for include/exclude, and filename label below.
Thumbnails load asynchronously using Pixbuf at reduced size.
Uses GObject subclass (ImageItem) for the list model.
Screen readers now announce progress bar value with descriptive
text like "Processing 5 of 47: sunset.jpg" during batch processing,
instead of just reporting the fraction.
The PipelineExecutor now stores thread_count and pause_on_error
fields. When pause_on_error is enabled, the executor sets the
pause flag on failures so the user can review errors. The GUI
reads these settings from AppConfig before starting processing.
Screen readers now announce the purpose and range of brightness,
contrast, saturation, and compression quality sliders. The
watermark position grid frame also has a descriptive label.
A "?" button in the header bar shows an AlertDialog with help
text specific to the current wizard step, explaining what each
step does and key shortcuts available.
Reads image textures from the system clipboard, saves as temporary
PNG files, and adds them to the batch. Shows toast notification
on success or when no image is found.
Escape now goes to previous wizard step (cancel/go back). When
a folder with subfolders is dropped on the images step, an alert
dialog asks whether to include subfolder images. The choice is
remembered for the rest of the session.
- 9-point position grid using ToggleButtons in a Grid layout
- Visual feedback with radio-checked/radio-symbolic icons
- Position label below grid shows current selection name

- Process action checks for included images, not just loaded files
- Settings now has a File Manager Integration group with toggle rows
for each detected file manager (Nautilus, Nemo, Thunar, Dolphin)

- Count label shows "X/Y images selected" when some are excluded
- Processing respects excluded files - only processes checked images
- Clear All also resets exclusion set
- AppState gains excluded_files HashSet for tracking
Add fourth welcome wizard page that detects installed file managers
(Nautilus, Nemo, Thunar, Dolphin) and offers integration toggles for
each. Follows the design doc specification for the first-run experience.
Add What's New dialog accessible from hamburger menu showing version
changelog. Add accessible property labels to step indicator for screen
reader support with current step/total announcements. Add focus
management on step transitions - focus moves to first interactive
element when navigating to a new step.
Add per-format mapping rows in convert step advanced options so each
input format can target a different output format. Move basic
orientation controls (rotate/flip) into the resize step per design doc
specification that these should be folded into the resize step.
Add crop to aspect ratio (8 ratios), trim whitespace, and canvas padding
controls to the adjustments step per design doc. Wire brightness,
contrast, saturation, sharpen, grayscale, and sepia to JobConfig. Add
Select All / Deselect All toolbar buttons to images step. Include new
adjustment operations in output step summary.
Add Photographer mode to metadata step that keeps copyright and camera
model while stripping GPS and software data. Improve compress quality
descriptions with estimated file size reduction percentages.
Workflow step: replace the auto-advancing Custom card with a proper
operation checklist using SwitchRow toggles for each operation (Resize,
Adjustments, Convert, Compress, Metadata, Watermark, Rename). Wired
to job config so selections persist through the wizard.
Output step: show actual file size alongside image count. Refresh
both count and size dynamically when navigating to the output step.
Convert step: replace ComboRow with visual format card grid showing
icon, name, and description for each format. Much more beginner-friendly.
Images step: add per-image remove button on each file row so users
can exclude individual images from the batch.
Shortcuts: use adw::Dialog with structured layout since GtkShortcutsWindow
is deprecated in GTK 4.18+. Add file management and undo shortcuts.
Settings: wire thread count selection to actually save/restore the
ThreadCount config value instead of always defaulting to Auto.
Rename step now shows preview for first 5 loaded files (or fallback
examples) with incrementing counters instead of a single line.
Watermark step gains an advanced expander with rotation, tiling,
margin, and scale options alongside the existing opacity control.

All four configurable steps (resize, convert, compress, metadata) now
have signal handlers that update the shared JobConfig via AppState.
The run_processing function builds ProcessingJob from actual user
choices instead of hardcoded values. Fixed clippy warnings (collapsed
if-let chain, removed needless borrow).
