Lannotex v0.2.0

Viewing, speed and layout: sharp zoom on large images, instant navigation, and a
workspace you can arrange yourself.

Added

• Full-resolution viewing. Zooming in past the preview loads the original pixels in the
  background, so large images stay sharp at any zoom. Only the visible region is drawn.
  Detail decoding is capped at 64 MP to protect memory.
• Instant next/previous. Neighbouring images are decoded ahead of time.
• Minimap (M) for orientation and click-to-jump, and a pixel grid (G) from
  1200% zoom upwards.
• Zoom controls: actual pixels (Ctrl+1), zoom in/out (Ctrl+= / Ctrl+-) up to
  6400%. The zoom readout now shows true pixel scale, so 100% means actual pixels.
• Image adjustments: brightness, contrast and gamma in a new Image view panel. They
  change the display only, never your files, and are applied just to the visible region, so
  they stay fast on large images.
• Dockable panels: Dataset, Inspector and Image view can be moved, tabbed, floated onto
  another monitor, or closed. Your layout is remembered between sessions. Use
  View → Panels to bring a panel back or apply a preset (default, or all panels on the
  right). Focus mode hides every panel and restores your exact layout afterwards.
• Thumbnails in the image list, generated in the background with the rows you can see
  first. They're cached on disk in your user cache folder, not the project, so reopening a
  project is instant. The cache is capped at 512 MB. Toggle them under View → Show
  thumbnails in image list.
• Icons: a consistent line-icon set for the toolbar, navigation and Home screen,
  redrawn for light and dark themes, plus the Lannotex logo as the window icon. Icon-only
  buttons have tooltips and screen-reader names.
• Command palette (Ctrl+K): type part of any menu command, for example "zoom",
  "export" or "layout", and press Enter to run it.
• Number keys 1–9 choose the drawing label, which relabels the selected shape, or
  toggle classes in classification projects.
• Project → Import LabelMe folder… imports a whole folder, including subfolders.

Changed

• LabelMe import keeps going.
  • Circles and rotated rectangles are converted to polygons.
  • Points, lines and masks, which Lannotex can't draw yet, are skipped and counted in the
    import summary instead of rejecting the whole file.
  • Invalid shapes are dropped one at a time.
  • A malformed JSON file no longer stops the rest of the folder.

Fixed

• PySide6 6.12.0 is excluded. On Linux with Python 3.11 it over-releases references on every
  background job, which made Lannotex abort on exit. Versions 6.8.3–6.11 are unaffected.

Lannotex v0.1.1

Changed

• YOLO export is ready to train with Ultralytics: images/ (hard-linked when
  possible, otherwise copied), matching labels/, and a data.yaml with class names.
  Images that haven't been annotated yet are left out, so they don't become false
  negatives.

Lannotex v0.1.0

First public release on PyPI: pip install lannotex or uv tool install lannotex.
Standalone builds for Windows, macOS, and Linux are attached to the GitHub release.

Added

• Documentation site (MkDocs Material) with install, quick start, user guide, CLI
  reference, and a LabelMe migration guide; deployed to GitHub Pages.
• Issue forms, pull request template, Dependabot, and CITATION.cff.

Fixed

• pip install / uv tool install failed on Python 3.14: runtime dependencies are now
  ranges (PySide6-Essentials>=6.8.3,<7, Pillow>=11.1) instead of exact pins. The
  smaller PySide6-Essentials replaces the full PySide6 bundle.
• Buttons and menus showed "Save next" and "Keyboard preferences": & is now escaped.
• Test runs added temporary folders to the real recent-projects list. Settings are now
  stored in an INI file, so tests can isolate them. Earlier preferences are not migrated.
• Fonts follow the operating system instead of a hard-coded Segoe UI.
• The class list no longer clips rows on newer Qt versions.
• Version strings in exports, the team server, and window titles come from one place.

Changed

• CI tests Python 3.11–3.14 and checks a uv tool install on every OS.
