Rawtherapee 5 released, congrats to the team!

Congrats to the RawTherapee development team. Thanks to @Dariusz_Duma for his much appreciated effort.

@Morgan_Hardwood

Version 5 from the download page http://rawtherapee.com/downloads is Gtk 3.18 and the themes don’t work.

@TooWaBoo what does “themes don’t work” mean, could you be more specific? Which ones and how?

The TooWaBlue theme is not in the preferences list (wrong naming).

btw: I thought Gtk 3.22 will be the current version.

Congrats on v5!!! It opens in 4 seconds as opposed to the previous 10 seconds it took for 4.2.xxxx (for me anyway)

@Morgan_Hardwood and team,

Here are the OSX builds. Please let me know if I broke anything. Thanks, Partha

They will find a more permanent location once I update my website as well as when they are uploaded to RT website.

@TooWaBoo oh dear… I’ll investigate.

That’s not something we can enforce, it’s up to each builder. Versions 3.16 through 3.18 are recommended because they don’t exhibit the two bugs >=3.20 exhibit.

@partha thanks, did you build from out xz tarball or git?

@Morgan_Hardwood - From the xz tarball as per my discussions with DrSlony.

Also, if anyone is interested, I created portable Windows 64bit builds. They are similar to my portable GIMP builds.

They are not part of the official RT builds and so if one is interested, I can make them available.

Thanks,
Partha

Congratulations!

Definitely interested in your 64bit windows builds, but can’t try them out for a few weeks.

@partha please make them available if they’ve been tested, then I will upload a copy to the website. I saw people asking for them on reddit.

@Morgan_Hardwood, The reason I asked people to contact me is to get volunteers to test. Hopefully they can test and report back to me so that I can fix issues.

Here they are:

@partha,

Thanks for the portable version!
The links are not working.

@dngimage,

Yes, I know. my website is down. The host company is working diligently to get it up and running.

Thanks for your patience,
Partha

Sounds good @Partha. Thanks!

Could you explain the advantage over http://rawpedia.rawtherapee.com/Making_a_Portable_Installation.
Thank you
André

@gaaned92, Well for one, someone has done the work for you, :slight_smile:
Also, it is self contained and includes the option and cache folders within the installation. You unpack the 7z exe file and away you go.

As I said, I made it to test a portable environment. You are free to follow the instructions you posted and build your own. :slight_smile:

Thanks,
Partha

@dngimage and all,

My website is back up and running.

Thanks for your patience.
Partha

@partha

I did a quick test of your portable Gtk3 version. The only issue I’ve found are the missing arrows in front of the folders.
