libview 0.6.4 released
2009-01-07 18:34 PST

This release provides some more control to ViewOvBox, and allows us to specify a vertical offset for the widget for cases where we're not guaranteed to be at the top of the GtkWindow. We've also worked around a deprecation error that has kept our users from being able to compile libview with newer GtkMM versions.

Release Notes:

  • Add ViewOvBox_SetVerticalOffset function, which repositions the "over" box at the given vertical offset. This is required for cases where the user wishes to shift the position of the "over" box down from the top of the GtkWindow (case in point: Workstation in multimon mode with different monitor resolutions, bottom-aligned).
  • Due to gtkmm2 using the deprecated GtkType, our users previously needed to compile with --enable-deprecated to get around it. Switching default to --enable-deprecated=yes in configure.ac to be nicer.
libview 0.6.3 released
2008-12-07 15:56 PST

This release fixes some compiler issues and fixes an assertion failure that shouldn't be there with modern GTK+ libraries.

Release Notes:

  • Add AC_PROG_CXX to properly get C++ compiler definitions.
  • Remove an assertion on the result of gtk_grab_get_current which is no longer guaranteed with modern GTK+ libraries.
libview 0.6.2 released
2008-06-17 15:56 PST

This is a small feature addition release that adds a Close function to the AutoDrawer.

Release Notes:

  • Added a Close function to AutoDrawer, which closes the drawer immediately regardless of the location of the mouse pointer.
libview 0.6.1 released
2007-08-21 13:27 PST

This release fixes a breakage in FieldEntry in recent GTK+'s, and also fixes a bug in OvBox in the order in which children are unrealized and their windows destroyed.

Release Notes:

  • FieldEntry should now have a proper minimum size, accounting for any extra spacing.
  • OvBox now destroys its child windows after unrealizing all children, allowing child widgets to reparent their own windows before they're clobbered.
libview 0.6.0 released
2007-01-22 20:16 PST

This release fixes a couple small bugs in the AutoDrawer widget. It also adds API to set an AutoDrawer's horizontal offset, for those cases where you want to control the position exactly.

Release Notes:

  • Fix a bug in AutoDrawer which would spew warnings if menus did not properly set their parent widget.
  • Fix a bug in AutoDrawer which was mucking up the result of ViewAutoDrawer_SetOverlapPixels.
  • Add the capability for an AutoDrawer to be positioned at a certain horizontal offset, rather than just toggled between fill and center.
