Jdenticon Net Versions Save

Bug fix:

• Hues property was not correctly serialized on IdenticonView by WinForms designer in .NET Core projects.

Bug fix:

• Icons were not correctly rerendered after resizing an IdenticonView in a Windows Forms application.

Features

• Added support for SourceLink.
• Added NuGet symbol packages.
• Added support for nullable reference types (only for .NET Core).

General

• Breaking change: Identicon.Draw() now includes padding (previously it was the only method not including padding).
• Breaking change: Renderer.SetBackground() now requires a parameter for the icon rectangle.
• Upgraded sharpcompress to version 0.24.0 (only .NET Standard < 1.3).
• Bug fix: fixed tiny rendering artifacts in circles in large icons (> 400px).

ASP.NET Core

• Bug fix: fixed IndexOutOfRangeException thrown when serving identicons with the bundled middleware.

WPF

• Added .NET Core build.
• Added styling support.
• Padding specified by identicon style is now included in the rendered icon.
• Shapes of the same color are now rendered in a single step to avoid ghost lines.
• Bug fix: IconGenerator property was not used.
• Bug fix: background was not rendered in the correct location.
• Known issue: in .NET Core projects, ColorLightness, GrayscaleLightness and Hues cannot be set in the Property Window in Visual Studio designer. You can however set those properties in XAML.

Windows Forms

• New NuGet package Jdenticon.WinForms containing IdenticonView control. Also supports .NET Core.
• Known issue: in .NET Core projects, ColorLightness, GrayscaleLightness and Hues cannot be set in the Property Window in Visual Studio designer. You can however set those properties in code behind.

GDI

• Breaking change: No longer clears the context before rendering the icon. However it will still paint the background color, so if the background color is opaque, there is no change.
• Shapes of the same color are now rendered in a single step to avoid ghost lines.

Bug fixes:

• Artifacts were produced when rendering icons with no padding (#4)

Improvements:

• New package for ASP.NET Core support: Jdenticon.AspNetCore.
• Added async method overloads to Identicon.
• Jdenticon.Gdi now runs on .NET Standard 2.0.

Bug fixes:

• Identicon.SaveAsSvg closed the stream before leaving control to the parent.

Changes:

• The following methods were deprecated since they don't do what their names say they do:
  • Color.FromArgb (use Color.FromRgba instead)
  • Color.ToArgb (use Color.ToRgba instead)
• IdenticonStyle.Saturation is now deprecated. Use IdenticonStyle.ColorSaturation instead.

Improvements:

• New IdenticonStyle options: ColorSaturation, GrayscaleSaturation, Hues.
• New Identicon.DefaultStyle property.
• New Color.FromHsl overload accepting an alpha value.
• New methods Color.Parse and Color.TryParse able to parse most CSS color strings.
• New methods Color.FromHwb, Color.FromRgba, Color.ToRgba.
• @Html.Identicon and @Url.Identicon overloads taking an Identicon instance no longer requires a size, since the Identicon instance already contain a size.
• Improved error handling in @Html and @Url extension methods.

Bug fixes:

• Some circle shapes were rendered slightly larger than the JS and PHP version.
• Smaller circles were rendered very badly to PNG in smaller sizes.
• Padding is now rounded instead of truncated to nearest integer to avoid floating point rounding errors.

Breaking changes:

• Now licensed under the MIT license. This change was done to simplify using Jdenticon in businesses utilizing list of allowed open source licenses.

Improvements:

• Improved performance for the PNG icon renderer.

Fixed bugs:

• Removed small rendering artifact caused by PNG renderer while rendering partially covered pixels.

Bug fixes in PNG generation:

• Incorrect color of antialiased pixels in custom icons with multiple semitransparent layers.
• Unhandled exception while rendering custom icons if any polygons were located to the right of the viewport.
• Cascading overlapped polygons in custom icons caused rendering artifacts.

• Bug fix: MVC HtmlHelper extension generated invalid HTML markup.
