  • List of changes since Clutter 1.18.0

    - Fix the list of dependencies
    Clutter 1.18 depends on Cogl 1.17.5 when building the EGL/KMS backend.

    - Fixes for the Visual Studio build files
    Use the new symbol visibility annotations when building with MSVC.

    - Fix event handling on Windows
    An optimization led to a crash on the Windows backend when delivering
    events without an associated ClutterStage.

    - Ensure that set_child_above/below work on the Stage
    ClutterStage should respect the paint order when using the Actor API.

    - Skip conformance test suite on X11 when DISPLAY is unset
    Instead of bailing out when initializing the test suite we should just
    tell the test suite API to skip the units. This allows the TAP driver
    to catch the skipped tests and avoid warnings.

    - Translation updates
    Danish, French, Indonesian, Greek.
