show-expanders and level-indentation properties
- Allow to embed the search popup
- Better search popup positioning
* GtkFileChooser:
- Communication with backends is now asynchronous to avoid
blocking on file system operations. Due to the required interface
changes, the GTK+ ABI version has been bumped to 2.10.0. Third-party
file system backends have to be ported to the new interface, other
modules, such as theme engines, input method modules or pixbuf loaders
have to be rebuilt so that they are installed in the right place
for GTK+ to find them.
- The location entry (popped up by C-L) has been integrated in the
main dialog.
* Reworked hex Unicode input now requires Ctrl-Shift-U
* Animations can now be globally controlled by settings
* The gtk-touchscreen-mode setting controls a number of changes
that make GTK+ work better on touchscreens
* Password entries can optionally show the last entered character
for a short while, controlled by the password-hint-timeout setting
* GTK+ can now consult an additional fallback icon theme before
falling back to hicolor
* Improved themability:
- GTK+ supports symbolic colors, which can be set system-wide
using a setting, and can be modified and used in rc files
and theme engines
- GTK+ sets window type hints on override-redirect windows to
help compositing managers apply proper bling
- Paths in rc files can now refer to all subclasses of a class
- GtkRange steppers will appear insensitive when the slider
is at the end; applications which need to handle this case
(e.g. to extend the range) can opt out of this.
- GtkRange::activate-slider style property allows themes
to draw sliders differently while they are being dragged
- GtkNotebook::tab-overlap and GtkNotebook::curvature style
properties allow more flexible notebook theming
- The spacing of buttons around children can be themed with
the GtkButton::inner-border style property. Apps can override
this per-widget using the corresponding inner-border property
- GtkMenu has acquired a horizontal-padding style property
- There are style properties for the color of hyperlinks,
GtkWidget::link-color and GtkWidget::visited-link-color
- GtkTreeview row hinting now takes the selection into account
- Scrolling menus can be forced to always display both arrows,
using the GtkMenu::double-arrows style property
- Separators can be themed using the wide-separators, separator-width
and separator-height style properties
- GtkTreeView allows more flexible theming with the row-ending-details
property
- The pixbuf theme engines supports customized drawing of expanders
and resize grips
* GDK changes:
- OS X backend
- DirectFB backend
- Closing displays works
- gdk_screen_is_composited to check for running compositing manager
- Support for Super, Hyper and Meta modifiers
* gdk-pixbuf changes:
- Supports saving tiff
- Supports loading 16-bit pnm
- Doesn't load entire gif animation to get first frame
* Bug fixes
- Too many to list them here

Overview of Changes in GTK+ 1.3.1:
* GTK+ now uses the Pango library for text manipulation. All
strings in GTK+ now are in Unicode, languages written
from right-to-left, and complex-text languages are now supported.
* The gdk-pixbuf library for image loading and manipulation is
has been integrated with GTK+.
* The GTK+ object system has mostly been moved to GLib, separating
it from the GUI code. Many significant enhancements have been
made as part of this.
* A new text widget is now included. This started as a port
of the Tk text widget, and includes such features of the Tk
text widget as tags, marks, and unicode text support. It
has been enhanced to support model-view operation and the
full power of Pango.
* The GDK library has been extensively revised to support multiple
windowing systems. The only fully functional backend in 1.3.1
is the X11 backend, however, ports to Win32, Linux-framebuffer,
Nano-X, BeOS, and MacOS exist in various states of completion,
and at least some of these will be finished and integrated in
before the final GTK+-2.0 release.
* 32-bit coordinates are now supported throughout GDK and GTK+
(they are emulated where not supported by the windowing system.)
* Many minor bug fixes and enhancements. Incompatible changes
are documented in docs/Changes-2.0.txt
Overview of Changes in GTK+ 1.2.8:
* GNU Make 3.79 bug workaround
* FAQ and tutorial updates and improvements
* Miscellaneous bug fixes: CList, Calendar, rc-files, FontSelection
Overview of Changes in GTK+ 1.2.7:
* More header cleanups.
* Fixed activation bug for insensitive widgets.
* Locale fixes to RC file parsing code.
* Miscellaneous bugfixes for Item Factory, CList, CTree, X Selections,
HScale, VScale, Pixmap, Viewport, OptionMenu, Entry and Notebook.
* Upgrade to libtool 1.3.4.
Overview of Changes in GTK+ 1.2.6:
* container queue_resize fixes
* gtk[vh]scale: minor fixups
* rename idle to idle_id in testgtk to avoid conflicts with
broken libs
* More consistent naming of gtkrc files
* Added language support: ro, uk
Overview of Changes in GTK+ 1.2.5:
* more GtkCTree and GtkWindow bug fixes.
* more redraw/resize queue fixes, better expose event
discarding code.
* more miscellaneous bugs fixed
* new configure.in option --disable-rebuilds to completely disable
rebuilds of autogenerated sources.
* check for 5.002 now, to avoid failing autogeneration build rules due
to old perl versions.
* fonts (and fontsets) are cached now.
* more autogeneration make rules and dependency fixups, we should be
save with autogeneration up to make -j12 now ;)
* new window position GTK_WIN_POS_CENTER_ALWAYS, which will recenter the
GtkWindow on every size change.
* major rework of window manager hints handling code, fixed a bunch of
races with the new resizing code.
* the new wm hints and resizing code is absolutely perfect and bug free now,
it only lacks testing ;)
* fixed up various rc style memory problems.
* gtk_widget_modify_style() now properly changes the style of realized widgets
and references the style passed into it. if people worked around this bug,
this will introduce a slight memory leak in their code.
The code should typically look like:
GtkRcStyle *rc_style = gtk_rc_style_new ();
[...]
gtk_widget_modify_style (widget, rc_style);
gtk_rc_style_unref (rc_style);
* fix problems with positioning menus offscreen.
* GtkText fixes for some crashes and drawing errors.
* Better handling for unexpected window destroys in GDK and GTK+.
This should make it possible to use a GtkPlug and catch the
case where its parent socket is randomly killed.
* FAQ updates.
* FileSelection i18n patches, RadioButton fixups.
* many translation improvements.
* miscellaneous other bugs fixed.
Overview of Changes in GTK+ 1.2.4:
* DnD improvements (drags can be canceled with Esc now).
* suppressed configure event reordering in Gdk.
* rewrite of Gtk's configure event handling.
* major improvements for the object argument system (Elena Devdariani).
* major bugfixes for threading, GtkNotebook, GtkItemFactory, GtkCList and
GtkCTree.
* tutorial/FAQ updates, new file generation.txt on autogenerated sources.
* configure's --with-glib= is "officially" unsupported.
* upgrade to libtool 1.3.3.
* various buglets fixed.
Overview of Changes in GTK+ 1.2.3:
* Upgrade to libtool 1.3

* Bug fixes and leak plugs for the Gdk IM code.
* Added gtk_object_get() facility to retrieve object arguments easily.
The var args list expects ("arg-name", &value) pairs.
* Fixed mapping for GdkInputCondition<->GIOCondition, this should fix
problems where closed pipes were no longer signaling GDK_INPUT_READ on
systems with a native poll().
* Some cleanups to GtkLabel's memory allocation code (shouldn't leak memory
anymore).
* We don't attempt to lookup xpm color "None" anymore, this should prevent
eXodus (commercial X windows server) from popping up a color dialog every
time a transparent pixmap is created.
* Fixed bug where Gtk timeout/idle handlers would execute without the global
Gdk lock being held.
* Other minor bug fixes.
Overview of Changes in GTK+ 1.2.1:
* Many Bug fixes have been applied to the menu and accelerator code.
* GtkItemFactory can "adopt" foreign menu items now and manage their
accelerator installation. This is often required to get GtkItemFactory
like accelerator propagation between different windows with the same
menu hierarchy and for centralized parsing and saving of accelerators.
* GtkCList/GtkCTree buttons should always display correctly now.
* Miscellaneous other bug fixes.
What's New in GTK+ 1.2.0 (since 1.0.x):

widget->requisition is always what the widget requested,
unmodified by the usize. See Changes-1.2.txt for details.
This correct various bugs with gtk_widget_set_usize().
* Fixes for XIM on X11R5 systems
* Don't allow cut-and-paste of text in password-style entries
* --enable-debug is now on by default for the development release.
(When compiling for "production", use --enable-debug=minimum)

* Fixes for memory leaks
* CList and CTree fixes
* Bug fixes for drawing problems.
* Miscellaneous bug fixes to GtkLabel, GtkCList, GtkCTree,
GtkColorsel, Focusing, DND
* Tutorial improvements
Overview of Changes in GTK+ 1.1.15:

gtk_menu_set_title()
gtk_toggle_button_get_active()
* Some locale fixups in gtkrc code
* Fixes to make gtk_radio_button_set_group() keep only
one radio button in the group active
* Foreign windows are now always treated as viewable; this fixes
a problem where updating didn't occur properly in GtkPlug
* DND fixes for 64 bit architectures, and for specifying operations
with modifier keys.
* Major revisions to GtkLayout: avoid having to create window
for NO_WINDOW children, adjust allocations of children as
scrolled so queued draws work, and a resize is queued instead
of allocating directly in a put() or move()
What is new in GTK+ 1.1.13:
* Dnd and selection bug fixes and memory purification.
* Widget sensitivity fixups.
* Tooltips windows are now named "gtk-tooltips" so rc file rules
can match tooltips windows. Fixed interaction of tooltips and NO_WINDOW
widgets.
* Spin buttons now update their values upon value retrieval.
* Overhaul of the resizing vs. redrawing logic to reduce redrawing needs
a lot. Gtk makes full use of the draw_area coalescing code now, which
got minorly improved as well.
* Containers map their Gdk windows after their children now to reduce
expose event generation.
* Gdk event queue fixups, this solves the double-click problems people were
recently having.
* Account for the fact that GSource's are only properly reentrant from
within dispatch(), thus we don't do Gdk event processing from within
check() or prepare() anymore.
* Rc files feature a bg_pixmap value of "<none>" now.
* Improved session management support in Gdk.
* Automatic disabling of NLS if no gettext is found should work now.

mechanism for speed and reusability. Child/object arguments don't
need to be preceded by the "GtkType::" portion anymore.
* Removed GtkAcceleratorTable in favour of GtkAccelGroup, accelerator display
is now performed by a new widget GtkAccelLabel.
* Overhaul of the resizing code. Resizing behaviour can now be specified
on GtkContainer basis, so the underlying algorithm isn't only available
for GtkWindows.
* GtkTables are now fully resizable.
