Kthura release 20.8.11


I've sent in an update of Kthura. A few things are to be taken in order:

  • I noticed that some of the apps I currently write do not always work well on everybody's machine. Missing dependencies is my guess. I currently work in C# and I've noticed that C# is pretty dependency demanding (how impractical). Kthura (and most of my other stuff) will therefore very likely be installer only for the upcoming time, as the Microsoft installation tool I use for this does at least claim that all required dependencies should automatically installed on your PC, and would also only be removed upon removal if the system is sure all applications using them have been removed as well... I gotta see that, but I hope it's true.
    This being said, the raw package will not be updated anymore and may over time even be removed. I hate it too, but I guess I got no other choice here.

  • The texture list has been enhanced a bit. There are still some bugs I gotta cover, but a few annoyances have been taken care of... Hey I fix Kthura while working on other projects in which Kthura is used...

  • Kthura has been expanded with the "StretchedArea" object. It will automatically resize textures to fit in the area you choose. Please note, format ratios be damned so use with care.

  • A bug has popped up in the typing fields, causing a bit of a mess. This is the result of a few enhancements in the underlying TQMG library, and the Kthura editor didn't like that. I already got in mind how I can void these issues causing the bug to be fixed as far as Kthura is concerned, but it ain't gonna be a quick fix, so I had to let it be for now due to scheduling reasons. I hope I'll find time to fix this soon.
