I am pleased to announce a new release 0.7.0 of Entangle is available for download from the usual location:
http://entangle-photo.org/download/
The main features introduced in this release are a brand new logo, a plugin for automated capture of image sequences and the start of a help manual. The full set of changes is
- Require GLib >= 2.36
- Import new logo design
- Switch to using zanata.org for translations

- Use shared library for core engine to ensure all symbols are exported to plugins
- Add framework for scripting capture operations
- Workaround camera busy problems with Nikon cameras
- Add a plugin for repeated capture sequences
- Replace progress bar with spinner icon
The Entangle project has a bit of a quantum physics theme in its application name and release code names. So primary inspiration for the new logo was the interference patterns from (electromagnetic) waves. As well as being an alternate representation of an interference pattern, the connecting filaments can also be considered to represent the (USB) cable connecting camera & computer. The screenshot of the about dialog shows the new logo used in the application:
I am pleased to announce a new release 0.6.1 of Entangle is available for download from the usual location:
http://entangle-photo.org/download/
This release has primarily involved bug fixing, but one major user visible change is a rewrite of the camera control panel. Instead of showing all possible camera controls (which can imply 100’s of widgets), only 7 commonly used controls are displayed initially. Other controls can be optionally enabled at the discretion of the user and customization is remembered per camera model.

- Fix check for GIO package in configure
- Add missing icons to Makefile
- Follow freedesktop thumbnail standard storage location
- Refactor capture code to facilitate plugin script automation
- Fix bug causing plugin to be displayed more than once
- Make histogram height larger
- Strip trailing ‘2’ from widget labels to be more friendly
- Completely rewrite control panel display to show a small, user configurable subset from all the camera controls.
- Remember custom list of camera controls per camera model
- Hide compiler warnings from new glib atomic opertaions
- Update to newer gnulib compiler warnings code
- Remove broken double buffering code that’s no required when using GTK3

- Allow camera picker list to show multiple lines
- Remove crufty broken code from session browser that was breaking with new GTK versions
- Disable libraw auto brightness since it totally overexposes many images, generally making things look worse
