panel. (Temporary until the Font Settings panel in WPrefs is finished).
- Added a check that only %d is used in a font specification in WMGLOBAL and at
most once for each font in a fontset (eliminates a possible security exploit)
- Added README.antialiasing describing the steps needed to get antialiased
fonts working with WINGs/Window Maker.
- Added Sample.XftConfig
are affected. Fixes for old code too.
- Double buffering in WMList. All widgets or apps using WMList and
having user drawing porcedures in place will inherit this double
buffering automatically too.
- New functions in WINGs: WMGetColorAlpha(), WMIsAAFont()
- Misc code cleanups in WINGs and src/dialog.c
flickering.
- Added double buffering when drawing WMList items to avoid flickering
- Shared xft drawable
- Renamed AASystemFont and AABoldSystemFont to AntialiasedSystemFont
respectively AntialiasedBoldSystemFont in WMGLOBAL
- WMCreateFont falls back to normal fonts if antialiased fonts cannot be
created (even if enabled)
WMDrawString() and WMDrawImageString() now take WMColor instead of GC as
arguments. WMDrawImageString() receives 2 colors (text & background).
This is to allow easy extension for Xft/Xrender and hide X low level details
- Added alpha channel to WMColor. 2 new functions also:
WMCreateRGBAColor() and WMSetColorAlpha()
- Miscelaneous code cleanups in wtext.c
- Removed obsoleted acconfig.h and implemented its functionality using
AC_DEFINE and AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED as autoconf 2.5x recommends.
This will definitely enforce the need to use autoconf 2.5x
- fixed a bug and memleak in WMBox code.
- updated some translations
- fixed some bug in the menu code about drawing disabled entries.
- fixed Clip menu not to allow selecting of "Autoraise" if "Keep On Top"
is active.
- Added a "Browse" button to the menu editor in WPrefs where a program to run
is specified (not finished).
- Separated the font caches for normal fonts and fontsets in WINGs (they can
have the same names and collide in the cache giving unwanted results)
- Updated the years in the copyright notices
were managed by wmaker (Valery Kotchiev <aggregator@nospam.dk>)
- Fixed a problem that crashed wmaker when trying to read an unexisting
WMState.<number> file on multihead system.
- Fixed problem with keyboard shortcuts executed an every screen for
multihead systems.
- Also tested the backward compatibility ability of the WINGs proplist code
which seems to work quite well.
Starting with this moment, Window Maker no longer needs libPropList and is
now using the better and much more robust proplist code from WINGs. Also the
WINGs based proplist code is actively maintained while the old libPropList
code is practically dead and flawed by the fact that it borrowed concepts
from the UserDefaults which conflicted with the retain/release mechanism,
making some problems that libPropList had, practically unsolvable without a
complete redesign (which can be found in the more robust WINGs code).
WindowListMouseButton and ApplicationMenuMouseButton.
- Added 4 options to the configuration file for binding workspace actions to
mouse buttons: MouseLeftButtonAction, MouseMiddleButtonAction,
MouseRightButtonAction and MouseWheelAction. They replace the above 3
removed options, but use a different semantic.
- mouse wheel action is runtime configurable now.
