clutter 1.7.4



About Clutter
=============

Clutter is an open source software library for creating fast,
portable, compelling and dynamic graphical user interfaces. Clutter
uses OpenGL (and optionally OpenGL|ES for use on Mobile and embedded
platforms) for rendering, but with an API which hides the underlying
GL complexity from the developer. The Clutter API is intended to be
easy to use, efficient and flexible.

  • List of changes since Clutter 1.7.2

    - Unify the GLX and EGL backends to be a single code base
    The GLX and EGL backends shared most of their code, and with the split
    out Cogl, we can unify the code base into a single backend. The API as
    well as the ABI are preserved.

    - Restore a wider range of Z values for actors
    The computation for the near and far planes given the perspective
    transformation used to set up the viewport was broken in 1.7.2, and
    the distance from the focal point was greatly reduced. This has now
    been fixed.

    - Bump up the dependency of Cogl
    New windowing system API in Cogl required bumping the minimum version
    to the latest development snapshot, 1.7.2.

    - Add ClutterDropAction
    The ClutterDropAction is an action for allowing ClutterActors to react
    when an actor being dragged through ClutterDragAction crosses, or is
    dropped over, them.

    - Add a performance test suite
    This suite is an addition to our conformance and interactive test
    suites; the infrastructure can be used by buildbots and report tools
    to track performance regressions across various commits.

    - Documentation and annotation fixes

    - Build fixes
