Transformation Work

This month, Dmitry Kazakov is spending all his time on the transformation code in Krita. That's the code that does the scaling, rotating, shearing and so on. We always felt that the current situation wasn't all that bad, but a host of bug reports on transformations told us differently!

So, January is Transformation Month! And while not committed yet, Dmitry is already showing some really nice progress in improving the quality of the transformations.

And this shows off how much nicer the rotation interpolation has become:
