4.2.0
-----
2017-07-01 00:58:14 +03:00
Added Complex Text Rendering
============================
Pillow now supports complex text rendering for scripts requiring glyph
composition and bidirectional flow. This optional feature adds three
dependencies: harfbuzz, fribidi, and raqm. See the :doc:`install documentation
<../installation>` for further details. This feature is tested and works on
Unix and Mac, but has not yet been built on Windows platforms.

New Optional Parameters
=======================
* :py:meth:`PIL.ImageDraw.floodfill` has a new optional parameter:
threshold. This specifies a tolerance for the color to replace with
the flood fill.
* The TIFF and PDF image writers now support the ``append_images``
optional parameter for specifying additional images to create
multipage outputs.
New DecompressionBomb Warning
=============================
:py:meth:`PIL.Image.Image.crop` now may raise a DecompressionBomb
warning if the crop region enlarges the image over the threshold

specified by :py:data:`PIL.Image.MAX_IMAGE_PIXELS`.

Removed Deprecated Items
========================
Several deprecated items have been removed.
2020-07-09 21:19:34 +03:00
* The methods ``PIL.ImageWin.Dib.fromstring``,
``PIL.ImageWin.Dib.tostring`` and
``PIL.TiffImagePlugin.ImageFileDirectory_v2.as_dict`` have
2017-07-01 00:58:14 +03:00
been removed.
2017-07-01 00:58:14 +03:00
* Before Pillow 4.2.0, attempting to save an RGBA image as JPEG would
discard the alpha channel. From Pillow 3.4.0, a deprecation warning
was shown. From Pillow 4.2.0, the deprecation warning is removed and
an :py:exc:`IOError` is raised.
2017-07-01 13:30:48 +03:00
Removed Core Image Function
===========================
The unused function ``Image.core.new_array`` was removed. This is an
internal function that should not have been used by user code, but it
was accessible from the python layer.
