Changes for version 5.70
- Significant upgrade! Texture fills and hatch fills have been added.
- Documentation updated to reflect the new features.
- Fills for primitives has been optimized further. It's a bit faster. This has the side effect of also decreasing the TrueType rendering time.
- Polygon fills are fixed, and so are the filled pies.
- "replace_color" has been significantly optimized. It's faster in memory mapped mode and file handle mode.
- TrueType Font rendering now has the ability to rotate the text on an arbitray angle. Box calculation isn't perfect. Trying padding with spaces, should you have issues.
- Example scripts changed to demonstrate new features.
- Imager is preloaded "Imager->preload" for more thread friendly use. It didn't have issues before, but this is safer, and according to its documentation, it should be done.
