This is a large change that + affects many APIs. + - All gtkstyle functions have been changed to take a cairo_t argument + instead of a window + area. + - GdkPixmap is gone. APIs that took pixmaps are being replaced by ones + that take pixbufs or cairo surfaces, or regions (where pixmaps were + used as masks). In background handling, pixmaps have been replaced + by cairo patterns, see gdk_window_set_background_pattern(). + - GdkColormap is gone. It is replaced by visuals, see + gtk_widget_set_visual(). + - The ::expose-event signal on GtkWidget has been replaced by a + ::draw signal. + - gtk_widget_get_snapshot() has been removed. Instead, gtk_widget_draw() + can render a widget onto an cairo_t. + +* The GtkSizeRequest interface has been merged into GtkWidget, and + GtkCellSizeRequest has been merged into GtkCellRenderer. The wrapper + functions have been renamed to include 'preferred', e.g + gtk_size_request_get_width() is now gtk_widget_get_preferred_width() + and gtk_cell_size_request_get_width_for_height() is now + gtk_cell_renderer_get_preferred_width_for_height(). + +* GtkObject has been removed. The ::destroy signal has been moved + to GtkWidget. At the same time, GtkWidgetFlags have been removed, + they already had getters and setters anyway. + +* GtkWidget has gained generic alignment and padding properties: + halign, valign, margin-left, margin-right, margin-top, margin-bottom + These can be used instead of container-specific child properties or + GtkMisc and GtkAlignment widgets. + +* Container widgets can now let GTK+ handle border-width for them, using + gtk_container_class_handle_border_width() + +* The GtkEditableClass struct has been renamed to GtkEditableInterface + +* Mouse wheel scrolling has been removed from GtkNotebook + +* The default policy for scrolled windows has been changed to 'automatic' + +* Global url hooks have been removed from GtkAboutDialog and GtkLinkButton + +* The global window creation hook has been removed from GtkNotebook + +* The error handling in GDK has been modernized and avoids synchronizing + X requests as much as possible + +* Fixed Bugs: + 323904 GtkEditable header is slightly incorrect + 339745 Return value of gtk_link_button_set_uri_hook not usable + 468672 GTK_POLICY_AUTOMATIC should be the default policy... + 486839 Filechooser 'Places' items should not move up and down... + 601731 Drag and Drop from Workspace to Activities Overview + 617316 Move documentation to inline comments: GtkEditable + 621590 Add length to gtk_tree_path_get_indices + 623664 Missing accessors for gtk_menu_get_position_func{,_data} + 628829 Chain get_width_for_height default impl to vfunc... + 629177 Do not use deprecated gtk_widget_get_child_requisition() + 629277 Hanging because do_syntheszie_crossing_event is called... + 629387 Use gint16 for GtkBorder + 629598 Do not use deprecated gtk_widget_size_request() + 629608 Revamp and modernize X error traps + 629733 There is a misprint in the description of the gtk_check_... + 629748 Fails to build without XComposite + 629785 Do not use deprecated gtk_cell_renderer_get_size() + 630033 Improve tests for X error traps, fix two bugs + 630226 Removing tab scrolling from GtkNotebook + 630520 Don't try to unref event->dnd.context unconditionally... + 630521 Remove some remaining API warts from tab dnd api + 630532 invalid drop point in drag-data-received callback + +Updated translations: +Catalan +Czech +Danish +Dutch +German +Gujarati +Japanese +Simplified Chinese + + Overview of Changes from GTK+ 2.90.6 to 2.90.7 ============================================== -- 2.43.2
