Release notes for 3.20
|
||||
======================
|
||||
|
||||
* The way theming works in GTK+ has been reworked pretty fundamentally
|
||||
in this release, to be able to implement many more CSS features and
|
||||
generally give themes more power. As a result, custom CSS that is
|
||||
shipped with applications and third-party themes will need adjustments.
|
||||
Widgets now use element names much more than style classes; type
|
||||
names are no longer used in style matching. Every widget now documents
|
||||
the element names it has and the style classes it uses. The GTK+
|
||||
inspector can also be helpful in finding this information.

|
||||
|
||||
* GTK+ now uses internal subobjects (also known as gadgets) for allocating
|
||||
and drawing widget parts. Applications that subclass GTK+ widgets may
|
||||
see warnings if they override size_allocate and don't chain up. The
|
||||
proper way to subclass is to chain up in size_allocate. If you don't
|
||||
want to do that for some reason, you have to override draw as well.

well.
|
||||
|
||||
* Several fixes for window sizing and placement with client-side
|
||||
decorations may affect applications that are saving and restoring
|
||||
window sizes. The recommended best practice for this which is known
|
||||
to work with client-side and server-side decorations and with older
|
||||
and newer versions of GTK+ is to use gtk_window_get_size() to save
|
||||
and gtk_window_set_default_size() to restore the window size. See
|
||||
https://wiki.gnome.org/HowDoI/SaveWindowState for a detailed example.

|
||||
|
||||
* GtkDrawingArea used to implicitly render the theme background before
|
||||
calling the ::draw handler. This is no longer the case. If you rely
|
||||
on having a theme-provided background, call gtk_render_background()
|
||||
from your ::draw handler.
|
||||
|
||||
* The GtkFileChooser interface pre-requisite changed from GtkWidget
|
||||
* The GtkFileChooser interface prerequisite changed from GtkWidget
|
||||
to GObject, allowing non-widget implementations of this interface.
|
||||
This is a minor change in ABI, as apps are no longer guaranteed
|
||||
that a GtkFileChooser interface also supports all GtkWidget methods.
|
||||
However, all previously existing objects still derive from GtkWidget,
|
||||
so no existing code should break.

|
||||
|
||||
* The way in which GtkLevelBar determines the offset to apply was
|
||||
a bit inconsistent in the past; this has been fixed. Applications
|
||||
that are using custom offsets should double-check that their
|
||||
levels look as expected.
