Changes in FLTK 1.4.0 Released: ??? ?? 2017
General Information about this Release
- FLTK 1.4.0 is based on FLTK 1.3.4 (released Nov 15 2016),
see CHANGES_1.3 for more information.
- CMake is the primary supported build system in FLTK 1.4.0 and later.
CMake can be used to generate Makefiles, IDE project files, and
several other build systems by using different "generators" provided
by CMake (for instance Ninja, CodeBlocks, Eclipse, KDevelop3, etc.).
See README.CMake.txt for more information.
- autoconf/configure is still supported by the FLTK team for backwards
compatibility with older systems that lack CMake support.
New Features and Extensions
- New method Fl_Tabs::tab_align() allows to set alignment of tab labels,
particularly to support icons on tab labels (STR #3076).
- Added '--enable-print' option to configure effective under X11 platforms
and with 'yes' default value. Using '--enable-print=no' removes print
and PostScript support from the FLTK library, thus reducing its size.
- Added Fl_Surface_Device::push_current(new_surface) and
Fl_Surface_Device::pop_current() to set/unset the current surface
receiving graphics commands.
- X11 platform: Added support for drawing text with the pango library
which allows to draw most scripts supported by Unicode, including CJK
and right-to-left scripts. The corresponding CMake option is
OPTION_USE_PANGO. The corresponding configure option is --enable-pango.
This option is OFF by default.
New Configuration Options (ABI Version)
- FLTK's ABI version can be configured with 'configure' and CMake.
See documentation in README.abi-version.txt.
1.4.0 ABI FEATURES
- None. FLTK 1.4.0 has a new ABI, breaking 1.3.x ABI.
Other Improvements
- (add new items here)
- Separated Fl_Spinner.H and Fl_Spinner.cxx (STR #2776).
- New method Fl_Spinner::wrap(int) allows to set wrap mode at bounds if
value is changed by pressing or holding one of the buttons (STR #3365).
- Renamed test/help.cxx demo program to test/help_dialog.cxx to avoid
name conflict with CMake auto-generated target 'help'.
- Many documentation fixes, clarifications, and enhancements.
Bug Fixes
- (add new items here)
- Fix Fl_Tabs label drawing for Fl_Window children (STR #3075).
- Fix line number alignment in Fl_Text_Display/Editor (STR #3363).
- Fix ignored buffer pre-allocation (requestedSize) in Fl_Text_Buffer.
See fltk.general "Fl_Text_Buffer constructor bug" on Dec 5, 2016.
- Fix build with configure --enable-cairo --enable-cairoext,
