When setting the lines property, the label will be ellipsized
to that many lines, with the ellipsis only appearing in the
last line. This is different from how ellipsization of multi-line
labels normally works in GTK+.
I'm currently working on porting view::FieldEntry (from libview) to C for use in
upstream GTK+. FieldEntry is a widget which allows users to enter structured
text such as IPv4 addresses or serial numbers. The way that FieldEntry
delineates the fields within the entry is with tabstops, using PangoTabArray
entries to precisely position the fields and delimiters. Because GtkEntry
rebuilds its internal PangoLayout fairly frequently, this requires a property in
the entry that will set the tabs on the layout whenever that happens. This API
looks very similar to one in GtkTextView.
Patch by David Trowbridge <trowbrds@gmail.com>. Updated for Gtk+ 3.10.

... to make it possible to insert rows in the middle of the list without having
to fiddle with the sort functions. One of the first users is going to be Glade.

Add a boolean property that controls whether a window close button
will be shown in the header bar or not. Doing this in the toolkit
will ensure consistency of the visual apperance.

We rename the gtk_widget_class_bind_template_child{_internal}
macros by appending a _private to their name. Otherwise, it
would be too magic to pass the 'public' names as arguments,
but affect a member of the Private struct. At the same time,
Add two new macros with the old names,
gtk_widget_class_bind_template_child{_internal} that operate
on members of the instance struct.
The macros and functions are inconsistently named, and are not tied to
the "template" concept - to the point that it seems plausible to use
them without setting the template.
The new naming scheme is as follows:
gtk_widget_class_bind_template_child_full
gtk_widget_class_bind_template_callback_full
With the convenience macros:
gtk_widget_class_bind_template_child
gtk_widget_class_bind_template_child_internal
gtk_widget_class_bind_template_callback

Add a new example to the getting started part of the docs. The focus
of this example is on 'new stuff': GtkApplication, templates, settings,
gmenu, gaction, GtkStack, GtkHeaderBar, GtkSearchBar, GtkRevealer,
GtkListBox, GtkMenuButton, etc.
It is being developed in several steps. Each step is put in a separate
directory below examples/: application1, ..., application8. This is a
little repetitive, but lets us use the code of all examples in the
documentation.
We should mention that newly written code should not have the private
data pointer in the instance structure, and that private data should be
added using the new GObject macros.

Currently you can only set the current filename, but not
get it. It's useful to be able to get it in save
dialogs, where the user has typed the desired filename
and you are not in a real directory (recent used, for
example).

I notice that a reference to GtkStrengthBar had been left in this file
when it was renamed to GtkLevelBar. On closer inspection, it looks like
it's been unused for 13 years. To quote docs/reference/ChangeLog:

> [...] Removed objects_grouped.sgml from gtk-docs.sgml for now, it
> doesn't seem useful anymore.

Rename our internal GActionMuxer, GActionObserver and GActionObservable
classes and interfaces to have names in our own namespace.
These classes were originally intended for GIO but turned out to be too
special-purpose to be useful there, so we never made them public API but
have just been copying them around (without bothering to properly rename
them). Now that other people will be copying them out of Gtk, it's even
more important to prevent this namespace abuse from spreading further.
Newer versions of GCC/binutils must have the source file come before the
preprocessor and linker flags on the compiler command line, and this is
also compatible with previous versions.

This commit implements the needed machinery for GtkWidget
to build it's composite content from GtkBuilder XML and
adds the following API:
o gtk_widget_init_template()
An api to be called in instance initializers of any
GtkWidget subclass that uses template XML to build it's components.
o gtk_widget_class_set_template()
API to associate GtkBuilder XML to a given GtkWidget subclass
o gtk_widget_class_automate_child()
API to declare an object built by GtkBuilder to be associated
with an instance structure offset and automatically set.
o gtk_widget_get_automated_child()
API for bindings to fetch a child declared to be automated by
gtk_widget_class_automate_child(), for the case where bindings
do not generate GObjects under the hood and cannot use structure
offsets to resolve composite object pointers.
o gtk_widget_class_declare_callback[s]()
Declare static functions to be used in signal callbacks from
a given class's template XML
o gtk_widget_class_set_connect_func()
API for bindings to override the signal connection machinery
for a given GtkWidget derived class.
In preperation for composite objects, for better encapsulation
the following APIs are added to allow handling of signals declared
in the XML with callbacks declared statically.
o gtk_builder_add_callback_symbol[s]()
Adds a symbol to the internal symbol hash
o gtk_builder_lookup_symbol()
Looks up a symbol, exposed in case added symbols are used
in conjunction with gtk_builder_connect_signals_full()
The default implementation of gtk_builder_connect_signals() now
does not have a strong requirement on GModule (or a strong requirement
on symbols being declared in the global namespace). Instead GModule
is used as a fallback in the case that symbols are not declared
explicitly.
It's more logical to have the GtkTextAttributes and GtkTextAppearance
structs together. And it creates a separation between gtk_text_tag and
gtk_text_attributes functions.

Themes may want to render handles differently depending on whether
the widget is in selection mode (2 handles enclosing a selection) or
cursor mode (one handle pointing out the insertion cursor).
Make the main (and only) entry-point to gtkmodelmenu.c the now-public
gtk_menu_shell_bind_model().
Move the convenience constructors (gtk_menu_new_from_model() and
gtk_menu_bar_new_from_model()) to their proper files.
Remove the private header file.
Simplify the code a bit by making the initial populate part of the
bind() call.

This is a helper object to allow text widgets to implement
text selection on touch devices. It allows for both cursor
placement and text selection, displaying draggable handles
on/around the cursor and selection bound positions.
Currently, this is private to GTK+, and only available to
GtkEntry and GtkTextView.
It's too close to the release so we'll keep _set_menu() around, but
deprecate it, pointing to the new API. It will be removed (and the name
reused) before the 3.6.0 release.

This allows adding a GActionGroup with a given name at an arbitrary
point in the widget tree.
This patch also adds an internal _get_action_muxer() API. Calling this
will create a GActionMuxer associated with the widget. The parent of
the muxer will be the muxer of the widget's conceptual parent. For
non-menus, that is the normal parent. For menus, it is the attach
widget.
In this way, we end up with a hierarchy of GActionMuxer that largely
reflects the hierarchy of GtkWidget, but only in places that the action
context has been requested. These muxers are the ones on which the
inserted actions groups are installed.
A following patch will add a user of this API.
