  • List of changes since Clutter 1.12

    - Add ClutterTapAction, a gesture recogniser for single touch taps.

    - Add ClutterSwipeAction::swipe
    This new signal has a boolean return value, and brings the SwipeAction in
    line with the rest of the GestureAction sub-classes. The ::swept signal
    has also been deprecated.

    - Enable XInput 2.x support by default
    Instead of using Xlib core events. The clutter_x11_enable_xinput() function
    now does not do anything; it's possible to disable XInput support by using
    the CLUTTER_DISABLE_XINPUT environment variable.
