The FLTK Team is proud to announce the release of FLTK 1.1.7,
a cross-platform C++ GUI toolkit for UNIX(r)/Linux(r) (X11),
Microsoft(r) Windows(r), and MacOS(r) X. FLTK provides
modern GUI functionality without the bloat and supports 3D
graphics via OpenGL(r) and its built-in GLUT emulation.
FLTK 1.1.7 fixes many bugs, adds some new example programs, and
adds many new improvements to the FLUID software including
multi-level undo, syntax highlighting in all code fields, widget
alignment and sizing guides, dialog templates, widget subclasses,
and printing and testing of user interfaces within FLUID.
FLTK is provided under the GNU Library Public License with
exceptions that allow for static linking.
Changes since FLTK 1.1.6 include:
- Added Fl::screen_count() and Fl::screen_xywh() APIs to
support multi-screen displays.
- Added Greg Ercolano's simple Fl_Input_Choice widget
which is a combination of the Fl_Input and
Fl_Menu_Button widgets (STR #650)

multi-level undo, templates, comments, live code view,
live UI test, alignment/sizing guides, printing, and
widget subclassing!
