  • List of changes since Clutter 1.9.8

    - Provide symbolic names for pointer buttons
    The primary, middle, and secondary pointer buttons now have simple and
    easy to remember constants that can be used in place of the "magic"
    numbers.

    - Add ClutterActorIter
    A simple API, using a stack allocated opaque structure, for safely and
    efficiently traverse the children of a ClutterActor.

    - Fix regression introduced by the default FixedLayout layout manager
    Existing ClutterActor subclasses using their own layout management should
    now work exactly like in Clutter 1.8.

    - Documentation fixes
    Including introspection annotations fixes.

    - Updates to the Wayland backend
    The Wayland client backend is now up to date with the 0.85 release of
