  • List of changes since Clutter 1.13.8

    - Fix a typo in the ClutterTimeline::stopped signal declaration
    The "stopped" signal was using the ClutterTimelineClass.completed virtual
    function pointer slot, instead of the correct .stopped one, thus making
    subclasses of ClutterTimeline unable to override the default handler for
    the signal.

    - Use the XKB groups state when computing key modifiers on X11
    This allows getting the correct key symbol for high order groups.

    - Fixes for the Visual Studio build

    - Documentation and introspection fixes

    - Add a function to disable accessibility
    This allows using Clutter with an embedding toolkit that is also using
    ATK, like GTK+, without confusing the accessibility infrastructure.

    - Performance improvements
    ClutterActor now tries to minimize the amount of redraws queued on
    unmapped actors, unless the actors have Clones, or are part of a cloned
    branch of the scene graph.

    - Translation updates
    Uyghur, Belarusian, Catalan, Indonesian, Assamese, Portuguese, Danish,
    Catalan.
