When running the OpenGL flavor, Clutter requires at least version 1.3
|
|
|
|
or 1.2 with the multitexturing extension. However to build, Clutter
|
|
|
|
requires the latest GL headers which can be obtained from
|
|
|
|
www.khronos.org.

|
|
|
• GTK-Doc >= 1.11
|
2009-07-28 07:19:26 -04:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you are building the Introspection data you will also need:
|
|
|
|
|
2009-11-18 10:11:56 -05:00
|
|
|
• GObject-Introspection >= 0.6.4

|
|
|
|
2009-03-17 09:07:46 -04:00
|
|
|
If you want built in support for profiling Clutter you will also need:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

VERSIONING
|
2009-12-22 13:10:39 -05:00
|
|
|
===============================================================================
|
2007-07-30 12:28:53 -04:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Clutter uses the common "Linux kernel" versioning system, where
|
|
|
|
even-numbered minor versions are stable and odd-numbered minor
|
|
|
|
versions are development snapshots.
|
|
|
|
|
2009-06-05 12:54:21 -04:00
|
|
|
Different major versions break both API and ABI but are parallel
|
|
|
|
installable. The same major version with differing minor version is
|
|
|
|
expected to be ABI compatible with other minor versions; differing
|
|
|
|
micro versions are meant just for bug fixing. On odd minor versions
|
|
|
|
the newly added API might still change.
|
2007-07-30 12:28:53 -04:00
|
|
|
|
2008-01-14 05:39:41 -05:00
|
|
|
The micro version indicates the origin of the release: even micro
|
|
|
|
numbers are only used for released archives; odd micro numbers are
|
|
|
|
only used on the SVN repository.

Release Notes for Clutter 1.2
|
2009-12-22 13:10:39 -05:00
|
|
|
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
2009-10-23 08:38:28 -04:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* ClutterStageManager is now publicly available and documented API.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Clutter now depends on the system copy of JSON-GLib, and will fall
|
|
|
|
back to the internal copy only if JSON-GLib is not installed.

Cogl API changes for Clutter 1.2
|
2009-12-22 13:10:39 -05:00
|
|
|
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
2009-11-03 08:26:58 -05:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* cogl_viewport is now deprecated in favour of cogl_set_viewport which
|
|
|
|
accepts a viewport offset.
|
|
|
|
|
[cogl-clip] deprecate parts and cleanup the API
cogl_clip_push() which accepts a rectangle in model space shouldn't have
been defined to take x,y,width,height arguments because this isn't consistant
with other Cogl API dealing with model space rectangles. If you are using a
coordinate system with the origin at the center and the y+ extending up,
then x,y,width,height isn't as natural as (x0,y0)(x1,y1). This API has
now been replace with cogl_clip_push_rectangle()
(As a general note: the Cogl API should only use the x,y,width,height style
when the appropriate coordinate space is defined by Cogl to have a top left
origin. E.g. window coordinates, or potentially texture coordinates)
cogl_clip_push_window_rect() shouldn't have been defined to take float
arguments since we only clip with integral pixel precision. We also
shouldn't have abbreviated "rectangle". This API has been replaced with
cogl_clip_push_window_rectangle()
cogl_clip_ensure() wasn't documented at all in Clutter 1.0 and probably
no one even knew it existed. This API isn't useful, and so it's now
deprecated. If no one complains we may remove the API altogether for
Clutter 1.2.
cogl_clip_stack_save() and cogl_clip_stack_restore() were originally added
to allow us to save/restore the clip when switching to/from offscreen
rendering. Now that offscreen draw buffers are defined to own their clip
state and the state will be automatically saved and restored this API is now
redundant and so deprecated.
2009-11-04 14:31:43 -05:00
|
|
|
* cogl_clip_push() is now deprecated and new code should use
|
|
|
|
cogl_clip_push_rectangle() instead. The old API wasn't consistent with other
|
|
|
|
Cogl APIs that specify model space rectangles using (x0,y0)(x1,y1) pairs.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* cogl_clip_push_window_rect() is now deprecated and new code should use
|
|
|
|
cogl_clip_push_window_rectangle(). The old API shouldn't have been defined
|
|
|
|
to take floats and the abbreviation wasn't consistent with other Cogl API.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* cogl_clip_stack_save() and cogl_clip_stack_restore() are deprecated, as
|
|
|
|
the functionality is redundant now that offscreen draw buffers own their
|
|
|
|
clip state and switching to/from offscreen rendering will automatically
|
|
|
|
save and restore the clip state.
|
|
|
|
|
2009-11-11 07:50:48 -05:00
|
|
|
* cogl_material_copy() was added. It is advised that developers use
|
|
|
|
this instead of cogl_material_new() when creating a material that is in some
|
|
|
|
way derived from another. This will allow Cogl to track material
|
|
|
|
ancestries/similarities and reduce the cost of GPU state changes.
|
|
|
|
|
2009-11-26 14:06:35 -05:00
|
|
|
* cogl_push_draw_buffer, cogl_set_draw_buffer and cogl_pop_draw_buffer are now
|
|
|
|
deprecated and new code should use the cogl_framebuffer_* API instead.
|
|
|
|
Code that previously did:
|
|
|
|
cogl_push_draw_buffer ();
|
|
|
|
cogl_set_draw_buffer (COGL_OFFSCREEN_BUFFER, buffer);
|
|
|
|
/* draw */
|
|
|
|
cogl_pop_draw_buffer ();
|
|
|
|
can now be re-written as:
|
|
|
|
cogl_push_framebuffer (buffer);
|
|
|
|
/* draw */
|
|
|
|
cogl_pop_framebuffer ();

Release Notes for Clutter 1.0
|
2009-12-22 13:10:39 -05:00
|
|
|
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
2008-10-30 12:37:55 -04:00
|
|
|
|
2008-11-18 10:08:40 -05:00
|
|
|
* The clutter_actor_set_shader_param() function now takes a
|
|
|
|
GValue, which can be set using the clutter_value_set_shader()
|
|
|
|
family of functions. The floating point wrapper has been
|
|
|
|
rename clutter_actor_set_shader_param_float() to match the newly
|
|
|
|
added clutter_actor_set_shader_param_int().
|
|
|
|
|
2008-10-30 13:11:29 -04:00
|
|
|
* The Pango renderer API has been exposed as public API, after
|
|
|
|
a full rename from PangoClutter to CoglPango, to avoid namespace
|
|
|
|
collisions with upstream Pango. The Pango font map, renderer and
|
|
|
|
glyph cache can be used by third party code and depend only on
|
|
|
|
COGL.
|
|
|
|
|
2008-10-30 13:04:34 -04:00
|
|
|
* Both Clutter and COGL only allow including <clutter/clutter.h>
|
|
|
|
and <cogl/cogl.h> directly, respectively. This allows avoiding
|
|
|
|
breaking API every time a type definition is moved across
|
|
|
|
headers, and improves the reliability of third party code against
|
|
|
|
internal refactorings.
|
|
|
|
|
2008-10-30 12:50:07 -04:00
|
|
|
* COGL has an internal Color type, used to store a color definition
|
|
|
|
that can be efficiently used with the least amount of conversions
|
|
|
|
by both the GL and GLES implementations. The COGL API has been
|
|
|
|
changed to drop the usage of ClutterColor in favour of CoglColor.
|
|
|
|
|
2008-10-30 12:37:55 -04:00
|
|
|
* The fixed point API implementation Clutter uses internally has been
|
2009-03-16 12:14:12 -04:00
|
|
|
moved from the Clutter namespace to the COGL one.
|
2008-10-30 12:37:55 -04:00
|
|
|
|
2009-01-27 12:44:49 -05:00
|
|
|
* ClutterLabel and ClutterEntry have been removed from the API, as
|
|
|
|
both have been superceded by the ClutterText actor.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* ClutterCloneTexture has been removed from the API; in its place,
|
|
|
|
there is a generic ClutterClone actor which allows to "clone"
|
|
|
|
any existing actors -- even composite ones -- without using
|
|
|
|
frame buffer objects (FBOs).
|
|
|
|
|
2009-01-28 09:07:23 -05:00
|
|
|
* The ClutterEffectTemplate and clutter_effect_* functions have been
|
|
|
|
superceded by ClutterAnimation and thus removed from the public API.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* The ClutterBehaviourBspline has been superceded by the usage of
|
|
|
|
ClutterPath inside ClutterBehaviourPath, and thus removed from the
|
|
|
|
public API.
|
|
|
|
|
2009-03-16 12:14:12 -04:00
|
|
|
* ClutterColor API has received a much needed review to increase its
|
|
|
|
consistency. This has led to the following changes:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- clutter_color_parse() has been renamed to clutter_color_from_string()
|
|
|
|
and the order of the arguments has been changed
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- the factor argument of clutter_color_shade() has been swapped with
|
|
|
|
the return location for the new color
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- the fixed point entry points have been removed
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- clutter_color_from_hls() and clutter_color_to_hls() do not
|
|
|
|
normalize the values in the [ 0, 255 ] interval but use the
|
2009-07-28 07:19:26 -04:00
|
|
|
correct HLS intervals:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Hue: [ 0, 360 )
|
|
|
|
Luminance: [ 0, 1]
|
|
|
|
Saturation: [ 0, 1 ]
|
2009-03-16 12:14:12 -04:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* The ClutterFixed symbols have been completely removed: fixed-point
|
|
|
|
public entry points now take a CoglFixed.
|
|
|
|
|
2009-06-16 11:41:46 -04:00
|
|
|
* The -x and -u API have been removed. All the pixel-based API now
|
|
|
|
takes a float to allow sub-pixel precision; this is true also for
|
|
|
|
properties. WARNING: functions with variadic arguments (like
|
|
|
|
g_object_set(), g_object_get() and clutter_actor_animate()) do not
|
|
|
|
behave very well when dealing with integers instead of expected
|
|
|
|
floating point values, and vice versa. On 32bit machines it will
|
|
|
|
most likely lead to a crash. So:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
g_object_set (actor, "width", 100, NULL);
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
is incorrect, and should be changed in:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
g_object_set (actor, "width", 100.0, NULL);
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Composite actors that do not implement the Container interface
|
|
|
|
should implement the following virtual functions:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- void map (ClutterActor*)
|
|
|
|
- void unmap (ClutterActor*)
|
|
|
|
|
2009-07-28 07:19:26 -04:00
|
|
|
and chain up to the parent's implementation after calling
|
|
|
|
clutter_actor_map() or clutter_actor_unmap() on their children.
|
2009-06-16 11:41:46 -04:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Actors implementing the Container interface that have private
|
|
|
|
children that are not meant to be added/removed through the
|
|
|
|
Container API should implement the:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- void foreach_with_internals (ClutterContainer*,
|
|
|
|
ClutterCallback,
|
|
|
|
gpointer);
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
virtual function.
|
|
|
|
|
2009-07-01 09:56:13 -04:00
|
|
|
* Actors that perform direct transformations using the COGL API inside
|
|
|
|
their paint() implementation should override the apply_transform()
|
|
|
|
virtual function instead. Implementations of the apply_transform()
|
|
|
|
vfunc must chain up to the implementation of the parent class.
|
|
|
|
|
2009-07-28 07:19:26 -04:00
|
|
|
* The ClutterUnit type and the CLUTTER_UNITS_* conversion macros have
|
|
|
|
been removed: all Actors are now using sub-pixel precision directly
|
|
|
|
throughout the API. The new ClutterUnits type has been added as a
|
|
|
|
generic opaque storage for logical distance values.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Timelines are now fully time-based: all the frame-related properties
|
|
|
|
and methods have been removed. ClutterTimeline::new-frame will provide
|
|
|
|
the elapsed milliseconds since the beginning of the Timeline, instead
|
|
|
|
of the current frame number. The clutter_timeline_new() constructor
|
|
|
|
takes the duration of the timeline in milliseconds, and thus it replaces
|
|
|
|
the clutter_timeline_new_for_duration() variant.
|

Cogl API changes for Clutter 1.0
|
|
|
|
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
Fully integrates CoglMaterial throughout the rest of Cogl
This glues CoglMaterial in as the fundamental way that Cogl describes how to
fill in geometry.
It adds cogl_set_source (), which is used to set the material which will be
used by all subsequent drawing functions
It adds cogl_set_source_texture as a convenience for setting up a default
material with a single texture layer, and cogl_set_source_color is now also
a convenience for setting up a material with a solid fill.
"drawing functions" include, cogl_rectangle, cogl_texture_rectangle,
cogl_texture_multiple_rectangles, cogl_texture_polygon (though the
cogl_texture_* funcs have been renamed; see below for details),
cogl_path_fill/stroke and cogl_vertex_buffer_draw*.
cogl_texture_rectangle, cogl_texture_multiple_rectangles and
cogl_texture_polygon no longer take a texture handle; instead the current
source material is referenced. The functions have also been renamed to:
cogl_rectangle_with_texture_coords, cogl_rectangles_with_texture_coords
and cogl_polygon respectivly.
Most code that previously did:
cogl_texture_rectangle (tex_handle, x, y,...);
needs to be changed to now do:
cogl_set_source_texture (tex_handle);
cogl_rectangle_with_texture_coords (x, y,....);
In the less likely case where you were blending your source texture with a color
like:
cogl_set_source_color4ub (r,g,b,a); /* where r,g,b,a isn't just white */
cogl_texture_rectangle (tex_handle, x, y,...);
you will need your own material to do that:
mat = cogl_material_new ();
cogl_material_set_color4ub (r,g,b,a);
cogl_material_set_layer (mat, 0, tex_handle));
cogl_set_source_material (mat);
Code that uses the texture coordinates, 0, 0, 1, 1 don't need to use
cog_rectangle_with_texure_coords since these are the coordinates that
cogl_rectangle will use.
For cogl_texture_polygon; as well as dropping the texture handle, the
n_vertices and vertices arguments were transposed for consistency. So
code previously written as:
cogl_texture_polygon (tex_handle, 3, verts, TRUE);
need to be written as:
cogl_set_source_texture (tex_handle);
cogl_polygon (verts, 3, TRUE);
All of the unit tests have been updated to now use the material API and
test-cogl-material has been renamed to test-cogl-multitexture since any
textured quad is now technically a test of CoglMaterial but this test
specifically creates a material with multiple texture layers.
Note: The GLES backend has not been updated yet; that will be done in a
following commit.
2009-01-23 11:15:40 -05:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* All drawing functions now use a source material to determine how geometry is
|
|
|
|
filled. The source material is set via cogl_set_source. Or the convenience
|
|
|
|
functions cogl_set_source_color and cogl_set_source_texture.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

"drawing functions" include: cogl_rectangle, cogl_texture_rectangle,
|
|
|

cogl_texture_multiple_rectangles, cogl_texture_polygon (though the

cogl_rectangle_with_texture_coords, cogl_rectangles_with_texture_coords
|
|
|
|
and cogl_polygon respectively.

you will need your own material to do that:

cogl_material_set_color4ub (r,g,b,a);
|
|

cogl_material_set_layer (material, 0, tex_handle));
|
|
|
|
cogl_set_source_material (material);
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
cogl_rectangle will use.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For cogl_texture_polygon; as well as dropping the texture handle, the
|
|
|
|
n_vertices and vertices arguments were transposed for consistency. So
|
|
|
|
code previously written as:
|
|
|
|
cogl_texture_polygon (tex_handle, 3, verts, TRUE);
|
|
|
|
need to be written as:
|
|
|
|
cogl_set_source_texture (tex_handle);
|
|
|
|
cogl_polygon (verts, 3, TRUE);
|
|
|
|
|
2009-03-13 08:20:26 -04:00
|
|
|
* The arguments to cogl_rectangle, cogl_path_rectangle and
|
|
|
|
cogl_path_round_rectangle have been changed - for consistency - from
|
|
|
|
x, y, width, height, to x1, y1, x2, y2.
|
2009-01-29 11:24:24 -05:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* A CoglMatrix type and utility API has been added; this is currently used to
|
Fully integrates CoglMaterial throughout the rest of Cogl
This glues CoglMaterial in as the fundamental way that Cogl describes how to
fill in geometry.
It adds cogl_set_source (), which is used to set the material which will be
used by all subsequent drawing functions
It adds cogl_set_source_texture as a convenience for setting up a default
material with a single texture layer, and cogl_set_source_color is now also
a convenience for setting up a material with a solid fill.
"drawing functions" include, cogl_rectangle, cogl_texture_rectangle,
cogl_texture_multiple_rectangles, cogl_texture_polygon (though the
cogl_texture_* funcs have been renamed; see below for details),
cogl_path_fill/stroke and cogl_vertex_buffer_draw*.
cogl_texture_rectangle, cogl_texture_multiple_rectangles and
cogl_texture_polygon no longer take a texture handle; instead the current
source material is referenced. The functions have also been renamed to:
cogl_rectangle_with_texture_coords, cogl_rectangles_with_texture_coords
and cogl_polygon respectivly.
Most code that previously did:
cogl_texture_rectangle (tex_handle, x, y,...);
needs to be changed to now do:
cogl_set_source_texture (tex_handle);
cogl_rectangle_with_texture_coords (x, y,....);
In the less likely case where you were blending your source texture with a color
like:
cogl_set_source_color4ub (r,g,b,a); /* where r,g,b,a isn't just white */
cogl_texture_rectangle (tex_handle, x, y,...);
you will need your own material to do that:
mat = cogl_material_new ();
cogl_material_set_color4ub (r,g,b,a);
cogl_material_set_layer (mat, 0, tex_handle));
cogl_set_source_material (mat);
Code that uses the texture coordinates, 0, 0, 1, 1 don't need to use
cog_rectangle_with_texure_coords since these are the coordinates that
cogl_rectangle will use.
For cogl_texture_polygon; as well as dropping the texture handle, the
n_vertices and vertices arguments were transposed for consistency. So
code previously written as:
cogl_texture_polygon (tex_handle, 3, verts, TRUE);
need to be written as:
cogl_set_source_texture (tex_handle);
cogl_polygon (verts, 3, TRUE);
All of the unit tests have been updated to now use the material API and
test-cogl-material has been renamed to test-cogl-multitexture since any
textured quad is now technically a test of CoglMaterial but this test
specifically creates a material with multiple texture layers.
Note: The GLES backend has not been updated yet; that will be done in a
following commit.
2009-01-23 11:15:40 -05:00
|
|
|
support describing texture matrices.
|
|
|
|
|
2009-01-24 10:09:43 -05:00
|
|
|
* cogl_alpha_func has been removed, since this is now controlled using the
|
|
|
|
material API via cogl_material_set_alpha_test_function ()
|
|
|
|
|
2009-01-29 11:24:24 -05:00
|
|
|
* A Cogl Vertex Buffer API has been added that allows you to efficiently
|
|
|
|
manage arrays of vertex attributes in buffers that may be stored on
|
|
|
|
the GPU. These allow you to avoid the costs of repeatedy validating
|
|
|
|
vertex data and mapping it into the GPU.
|
|
|
|
|
2009-01-26 17:52:38 -05:00
|
|
|
* cogl_scale now supports scaling on the z axis
|
|
|
|
|
2009-02-12 06:08:00 -05:00
|
|
|
* cogl_clip_set* and cogl_clip_unset have been renamed to cogl_clip_push and
|
|
|
|
cogl_clip_pop respectively so they self document their stacking semantics.
|
|
|
|
|
2009-04-24 13:09:52 -04:00
|
|
|
* cogl_paint_init was renamed to cogl_clear and no longer disables lighting and
|
|
|
|
fogging. cogl_clear also now takes a mask of the auxiliary buffers you want
|
|
|
|
to clear so you can avoid redundant clears of buffers you aren't using.
|
2009-02-12 08:23:20 -05:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* cogl_fog_set was renamed to cogl_set_fog and it now takes a mode argument
|
|
|
|
giving control over the fogging blend factor equation, so that the
|
|
|
|
density argument isn't just ignored. A cogl_disable_fog function was
|
|
|
|
also added.
|
2009-01-29 11:24:24 -05:00
|
|
|
|
2009-02-18 13:54:54 -05:00
|
|
|
* cogl_get_*_matrix were changed to use the CoglMatrix type instead of
|
|
|
|
GLfloat m[16] arrays.
|
|
|
|
|
2009-04-30 17:19:43 -04:00
|
|
|
* cogl_offscreen_blit_region, cogl_offscreen_blit were removed since they were
|
|
|
|
only implemnted for GL, not GLES, and it was assumed no one was using them.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* cogl_offscreen_new_multisample was removed since it only ever returned
|
|
|
|
COGL_INVALID_HANDLE so it wasn't usefull.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* The COGL_MASK_BUFFER type was removed, since there should be nicer ways of
|
|
|
|
exposing color mask if anyone wants it later. It was assumed that no one was
|
|
|
|
using this currently.
|
|
|
|
|
2009-06-16 11:41:46 -04:00
|
|
|
* COGLenum, COGLint and COGLuint which were simply typedefs for
|
|
|
|
GL{enum,int,uint} have been removed from the API and replaced with
|
|
|
|
specialised enum typedefs, int and unsigned int. These were causing
|
|
|
|
problems for generating bindings and also considered poor style.
|
2009-05-12 09:15:18 -04:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* The cogl texture filter defines CGL_NEAREST and CGL_LINEAR etc are now
|
|
|
|
replaced by a namespaced typedef 'CoglTextureFilter' so they should be
|
|
|
|
replaced with COGL_TEXTURE_FILTER_NEAREST and COGL_TEXTURE_FILTER_LINEAR etc.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* The shader type defines CGL_VERTEX_SHADER and CGL_FRAGMENT_SHADER are handled
|
|
|
|
by a CoglShaderType typedef and should be replaced with
|
|
|
|
COGL_SHADER_TYPE_VERTEX and COGL_SHADER_TYPE_FRAGMENT.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* cogl_shader_get_parameteriv has been replaced by cogl_shader_get_type and
|
|
|
|
cogl_shader_is_compiled. More getters can be added later if desired.
|
|
|
|
|
2009-05-26 11:55:11 -04:00
|
|
|
* cogl_enable_depth_test has been renamed to cogl_set_depth_test_enabled and
|
|
|
|
a corresponding cogl_get_depth_test_enabled function has been added.

Release Notes for Clutter 0.8
|
2009-12-22 13:10:39 -05:00
|
|
|
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
2008-03-31 13:15:02 -04:00
|
|
|
|
2008-07-10 07:54:06 -04:00
|
|
|
* The COGL GL wrapper API has been completely overhauled and now
|
|
|
|
contains many new features including new greatly improved texture
|
|
|
|
abstractions (slicing, mipmapping, deformations etc, greatly
|
|
|
|
simplifying ClutterTexture), image loading and abstraction, path
|
|
|
|
based primitive drawing, clipping, and improved FBO and shader
|
|
|
|
support. It is now also fully documented.
|
|
|
|
|
2008-09-25 10:25:11 -04:00
|
|
|
* GL Texture Rectangle ext is no longer used, the regular 2D NPOTS
|
2009-04-30 17:19:43 -04:00
|
|
|
extension is preffered instead but not required.
|
2008-07-10 07:54:06 -04:00
|
|
|
|
2008-06-23 16:26:47 -04:00
|
|
|
* Clutter now has basic suppport for multiple input devices assuming
|
|
|
|
the backend supports it (currently X11 based via XInput and Fruity
|
|
|
|
backends). New API supporting this includes
|
|
|
|
clutter_event_get_device_id, clutter_get_input_device_for_id,
|
|
|
|
clutter_grab_pointer_for_device & clutter_ungrab_pointer_for_device.
|
|
|
|
|
2008-07-10 07:54:06 -04:00
|
|
|
XInput support needs to be explicitly enabled at runtime by calling
|
2009-04-30 17:19:43 -04:00
|
|
|
clutter_x11_enable_xinput () before clutter_init. clutter_x11_has_xinput ()
|
2008-07-10 07:54:06 -04:00
|
|
|
can then be called after to check if XInput extension present and use-able.
|
|
|
|
|
2008-06-14 06:27:01 -04:00
|
|
|
* The functions that return the transformed position of an actor have
|
|
|
|
been renamed to be more explicit about it:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
clutter_actor_get_abs_position - clutter_actor_get_transformed_position
|
|
|
|
clutter_actor_get_abs_size - clutter_actor_get_transformed_size
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Their behaviour has not been changed.
|
|
|
|
|
2008-07-10 07:54:06 -04:00
|
|
|
* To increase portability, Clutter does not strictly depend on
|
|
|
|
GdkPixbuf anymore; this means that you will have to include
|
|
|
|
<gdk-pixbuf/gdk-pixbuf.h> yourself if you are operating with
|
|
|
|
GdkPixbuf objects and not including that header. The GdkPixbuf-based
|
|
|
|
API has been removed from Clutter core:
|
2008-06-14 06:27:01 -04:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
clutter_texture_new_from_pixbuf
|
|
|
|
clutter_texture_set_pixbuf
|
|
|
|
clutter_texture_get_pixbuf
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
are all deprecated functions. It is still possible to load a GdkPixbuf
|
|
|
|
into a ClutterTexture with this sample code:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
clutter_texture_set_from_rgb_data (texture,
|
|
|
|
gdk_pixbuf_get_pixels (pixbuf),
|
|
|
|
gdk_pixbuf_get_has_alpha (pixbuf),
|
|
|
|
gdk_pixbuf_get_width (pixbuf),
|
|
|
|
gdk_pixbuf_get_height (pixbuf),
|
|
|
|
gdk_pixbuf_get_rowstride (pixbuf),
|
2009-07-28 07:19:26 -04:00
|
|
|
gdk_pixbuf_get_has_alpha (pixbuf) ? 4
|
|
|
|
: 3,
|
|
|
|
0,
|
2008-06-14 06:27:01 -04:00
|
|
|
&error);
|
|
|
|
|
2008-07-10 07:54:06 -04:00
|
|
|
ClutterTexture also now has a new filename property and
|
|
|
|
clutter_texture_new_from_file which is intended as an alternate to
|
|
|
|
common previous GdkPixbuf primary usage (i.e loading images from
|
|
|
|
disk).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To read texture data back into a pixbuf or system memory use a combination
|
|
|
|
of clutter_texture_get_cogl_texture & cogl_texture_get_data.
|
|
|
|
|
2008-06-14 06:27:01 -04:00
|
|
|
The clutter-gtk integration library has API for using GdkPixbuf with
|
|
|
|
ClutterTextures (among others).
|
|
|
|
|
2008-07-10 07:54:06 -04:00
|
|
|
ClutterTexture now supports a keep-aspect property which is set to FALSE
|
|
|
|
by default.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* clutter_texture_from_actor will now reparent source actors if they
|
|
|
|
are not parented. This behaviour may change in future releases.
|
|
|
|
There are known not yet fixed issues with source actors that set
|
|
|
|
depth or use clipping.
|
2008-06-13 19:03:45 -04:00
|
|
|
|
2008-06-13 12:57:17 -04:00
|
|
|
* The size negotiation API has been completely changed in order to allow
|
|
|
|
the creation of non-fixed layout managers. These functions have been
|
|
|
|
removed:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
clutter_actor_request_coords()
|
|
|
|
clutter_actor_query_coords()
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
from the ClutterActor API, as well as their virtual functions inside
|
|
|
|
the ClutterActorClass. The size of an actor is now split into two
|
2008-07-10 07:54:06 -04:00
|
|
|
different concepts: the preferred size (width and height
|
|
|
|
separatedly) and the size that has been allocated by the container
|
|
|
|
to which that actor belongs. Clutter still defaults to the fixed
|
|
|
|
layout management (i.e ClutterGroup) of the actors, but supports
|
|
|
|
fluid layout managers written using the new API.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Composite actors (actors with 'private' children not implementing the
|
|
|
|
container interface) now need to implement an allocate method here pass
|
|
|
|
an allocation to any composite children.
|
2008-06-13 12:57:17 -04:00
|
|
|
|
2008-05-29 05:27:21 -04:00
|
|
|
* Clutter now depends on PangoCairo for the font rendering. The PangoClutter
|
|
|
|
API is still considered semi-private and no guarantees are made on its
|
|
|
|
stability.
|
|
|
|
|
2008-04-11 08:00:50 -04:00
|
|
|
* ClutterShader API has been slightly changed: the ClutterStage:bound
|
|
|
|
property, clutter_shader_bind() and clutter_shader_is_bound() have
|
|
|
|
been renamed to :compiled, clutter_shader_compile() and
|
|
|
|
clutter_shader_is_compiled(), respectively. The previously semi-private
|
|
|
|
clutter_shader_release_all() function is now not exported anymore.
|
|
|
|
|
2008-04-04 15:55:05 -04:00
|
|
|
* ClutterStage is not an abstract type anymore: it can be instantiated
|
|
|
|
using clutter_stage_new() and it can be properly subclassed. If the
|
|
|
|
backend supports multiple stages, every stage will be a new window,
|
|
|
|
whose lifetime will have to be managed by the developer. Clutter will
|
|
|
|
still create the default stage, and guarantees that every call to
|
|
|
|
clutter_stage_get_default() will return exactly the same pointer.
|
|
|
|
|
2008-04-04 12:26:45 -04:00
|
|
|
* Actors now have a new 'show-on-set-parent' property set to TRUE by
|
|
|
|
default. With this property set to TRUE, actors will automatically
|
2008-04-04 13:05:34 -04:00
|
|
|
have clutter_actor_show() called on them when a parent is set (i.e
|
|
|
|
added to a container).
|
2008-04-04 12:26:45 -04:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Clutter now features support for multiple stages assuming supported
|
|
|
|
by the backend. See test-multistage.c for example of usage. This
|
2008-04-04 15:55:05 -04:00
|
|
|
does not change the automatic creation of the default stage.
|
2009-04-30 17:19:43 -04:00
|
|
|
A single GL context is used across all stages meaning GL resources
|
|
|
|
are shared.
|
2008-03-31 13:15:02 -04:00
|
|
|
|
2008-07-10 07:54:06 -04:00
|
|
|
* There is now an experimental native iPod Touch/iPhone UIKit backend
|
|
|
|
named 'fruity'.
|
2008-06-13 12:57:17 -04:00
|
|
|
|
2008-03-26 18:22:32 -04:00
|
|
|
* There is now an experimental native Win32 WGL backend.
|
|
|
|
|
2009-04-30 17:19:43 -04:00
|
|
|
* COGL (and therefor Clutter) now optionally features initial support for
|
|
|
|
OpenGL ES 2.0. It features support for shaders.
|
2008-06-13 19:03:45 -04:00
|
|
|
|
2008-03-06 20:00:00 -05:00
|
|
|
* Some more focused timeline unit tests have been added and some tweaks to
|
|
|
|
timeline semantics were made; E.g. For a 10 frame timeline here are some
|
|
|
|
points about the semantics:
|
|
|
|
- When you create a timeline it starts with current_frame_num == 0
|
|
|
|
- After starting a timeline, the first timeout is for current_frame_num == 1
|
|
|
|
(Notably it isn't 0 since there is a delay before the first timeout signals
|
|
|
|
so re-asserting the starting frame (0) wouldn't make sense.)
|
|
|
|
- For a non looping timeline the last timeout would be for
|
|
|
|
current_frame_num == 10
|
|
|
|
- For a looping timeline the timeout for current_frame_num == 10 would be
|
|
|
|
followed by a timeout for current_frame_num == 1 and frame 0 is considered
|
|
|
|
== frame 10.
|
|
|
|
- Asking for a timeline of N frames might better be described as asking for
|
|
|
|
a timeline of _length_ N.
|
2008-03-06 09:12:30 -05:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* The behaviour of clutter_actor_get_opacity() has been slightly changed;
|
|
|
|
instead of returning the composited opacity of the entire parents chain
|
|
|
|
of an actor, clutter_actor_get_opacity() does what you mean, and returns
|
|
|
|
the opacity set with clutter_actor_set_opacity(). The composited
|
2008-06-14 06:27:01 -04:00
|
|
|
opacity value is now returned by clutter_actor_get_paint_opacity().
|
2008-03-06 09:12:30 -05:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Until 0.6, clutter_label_get_color() would have returned a ClutterColor
|
|
|
|
with the alpha component equal to the composited opacity of the label.
|
|
|
|
Now, clutter_label_get_color() returns a copy of the exact color set
|
|
|
|
with clutter_label_set_color().
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* The ClutterEntry actor will automatically handle key events inside
|
|
|
|
a key-press-event handler. This deprecates the usage of
|
|
|
|
clutter_entry_handle_key_event() to update the contents of the
|
|
|
|
entry using the ClutterKeyEvent.
|
|
|
|
|
2008-07-10 07:54:06 -04:00
|
|
|
* The Clutter X11 and GLX backends feature support for wrapping external
|
|
|
|
X Drawables (such as windows as pixmaps) via the 'texture_from_pixmap' GLX
|
2008-09-25 10:25:11 -04:00
|
|
|
extension if available and fallback to slower XGetImage copies if not.
|
2008-07-10 07:54:06 -04:00
|
|
|
|
2009-04-30 17:19:43 -04:00
|
|
|
* ClutterContainer can have per child custom properties via ClutterChildMeta.

Release Notes for Clutter 0.6
|
2009-12-22 13:10:39 -05:00
|
|
|
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
2007-11-15 09:45:27 -05:00
|
|
|
|
2007-12-21 12:19:41 -05:00
|
|
|
* Now that every actor has events, the class signal handlers have been
|
|
|
|
removed from ClutterStageClass and moved into ClutterActorClass.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* The CLUTTER_2BUTTON_PRESS and CLUTTER_3BUTTON_PRESS event types have been
|
|
|
|
removed in favour of the ClutterButtonEvent:click_count counter
|
|
|
|
|
2007-11-15 09:45:27 -05:00
|
|
|
* X11 related called for glx and eglx backends are now shared and moved into
|
|
|
|
a clutter_x11 prefix.
|
|
|
|
|
2007-11-28 09:38:54 -05:00
|
|
|
* Scaling with gravity functionality was replaced by more generic and
|
|
|
|
powerful anchor point.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* The ClutterLayout interface, the ClutterBox and its implementations have
|
|
|
|
been moved outside Clutter core.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* The Effects API has been simplified, and it only requires the final value
|
|
|
|
of the effect instead of both the start and end value.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* The per-axis rotation API has been deprecated in favour of a single
|
|
|
|
pair of accessors, clutter_actor_set_rotation() and
|
|
|
|
clutter_actor_get_rotation().
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Every actor sub-class that is overriding the ClutterActor::request_coords()
|
|
|
|
virtual function *must* chain up to the parent's implementation in order
|
|
|
|
to store the bounding box inside the ClutterActor private data.
|
|
|
|
|
2007-12-21 12:19:41 -05:00
|
|
|
* It is now impossible to call clutter_actor_destroy() on the stage. Backends
|
|
|
|
will have to unset the CLUTTER_ACTOR_IS_TOPLEVEL private flag to actually
|
|
|
|
destroy the stage.
|
2007-11-28 09:38:54 -05:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* The default value of the ClutterLabel:wrap property has been changed from
|
|
|
|
TRUE to FALSE.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* All the behaviours properties have been renamed to match the $PROPERTY-start
|
|
|
|
and $PROPERTY-end convention.
|
|
|
|
|
2007-12-21 12:19:41 -05:00
|
|
|
* The clutter_group_add() function has been "undeprecated" and reimplemented
|
|
|
|
as a commodity macro; a clutter_stage_add() commodity macro has also been
|
|
|
|
added. Both macros just safely wrap clutter_container_add_actor().
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* The ClutterContainer::find_child_by_id() virtual function has been removed;
|
|
|
|
Clutter keeps track of every actor, so there's no need to recurse into
|
|
|
|
containers anymore.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* The unused ClutterActor::set_depth() and ClutterActor::get_depth() virtual
|
|
|
|
functions have been removed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* It is now possible to roundtrip the string created by
|
|
|
|
clutter_color_to_string() to clutter_color_parse().
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* The amount of motion events is now being throttled using the default frame
|
|
|
|
rate setting as the base value to compute the default and maximum frequency
|
|
|
|
of motion events to be delivered to every actor.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* ClutterAngle usage has been removed from the public API: it is an internal
|
|
|
|
optimization, which can be used for faster angle computations; users of
|
|
|
|
ClutterAngle now take a fixed point number in form of a ClutterFixed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* ClutterGravity usage when scaling has been superceded by the anchor point.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* The precision of the clutter_sqrti() algorithm has been improved for small
|
|
|
|
values.
|
|
|
|
|
2008-01-17 10:01:04 -05:00
|
|
|
* ClutterBehaviourScale constructor, scale properties and accessors have
|
|
|
|
been changed to accomodate the scaling factors on both the X and Y axis,
|
|
|
|
matching the clutter_actor_set_scale() function. This also changed the
|
|
|
|
clutter_effect_scale() function, which now accepts the final scale
|
2008-01-30 08:05:10 -05:00
|
|
|
factor on both the X and Y axis. The gravity property has also been
|
|
|
|
removed, as it behaved incorrectly with regards to the anchor point. When
|
|
|
|
scaling an actor using a BehaviourScale, the anchor point should be set
|
|
|
|
before applying the behaviour (remember to adjust the positioning as
|
|
|
|
well by factoring in the anchor point).
|
2008-01-17 10:01:04 -05:00
|
|
|
|
2008-01-25 14:48:26 -05:00
|
|
|
* The clutter_do_event() is now public; it can be used to feed an event to
|
|
|
|
Clutter and let it generate the capture-bubble signal emissions; it should
|
|
|
|
not be used by applications.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* In the X11-based backends, the DestroyNotify event is not propagated to
|
|
|
|
Clutter core if the stage is using a foreign window.
|
|
|
|
|
2008-01-31 09:40:49 -05:00
|
|
|
* To avoid method name collisions between ClutterActor and ClutterEntry
|
|
|
|
in high-level languages, the clutter_entry_set_position() and
|
|
|
|
clutter_entry_get_position() functions have been renamed to
|
|
|
|
clutter_entry_set_cursor_position() and clutter_entry_get_cursor_position()
|
|
|
|
respectively.

Release Notes for Clutter 0.4.0
|
2009-12-22 13:10:39 -05:00
|
|
|
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
2007-08-02 11:09:00 -04:00
|
|
|
|
2007-08-05 09:37:49 -04:00
|
|
|
* clutter_actor_show_all does not recurse for groups at least (this is to
|
2007-08-07 08:06:27 -04:00
|
|
|
match the original group_show_all behaviour). This is like 0.3 but was
|
|
|
|
never noted.
|
2007-08-05 09:37:49 -04:00
|
|
|
|
2007-08-06 16:46:54 -04:00
|
|
|
* ClutterBox API has changed: clutter_box_pack_start() and
|
|
|
|
clutter_box_pack_end() have been removed in favour of the clutter_box_pack()
|
|
|
|
API.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Both clutter_threads_enter() and clutter_threads_leave() have been
|
|
|
|
removed from the API, as they just created confusion and the wrong
|
|
|
|
idea that Clutter is either thread-safe or thread-aware. Full
|
|
|
|
thread-awareness is arriving in the next revision (see bug #429).
|
2007-08-02 11:09:00 -04:00
|
|
|
|
2007-08-07 08:06:27 -04:00
|
|
|
* The ClutterBehaviourRotate and ClutterBehaviourEllsipse APIs have been
|
|
|
|
overhauled.

Release Notes for Clutter 0.3.1
|
2009-12-22 13:10:39 -05:00
|
|
|
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
2007-07-06 07:40:59 -04:00
|
|
|
|
2009-04-30 17:19:43 -04:00
|
|
|
* clutter_actor_apply_transform_to_point() parameters changed to use
|
2007-07-06 07:40:59 -04:00
|
|
|
ClutterVertices.
|
|
|
|
|
2009-04-30 17:19:43 -04:00
|
|
|
* New 'Native API' backend expects EGL implementation to provide a
|
|
|
|
CreateNativeWindow() API call.
|
2007-07-06 10:08:03 -04:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Exisiting X11 based egl backend public API calls now prefixed eglx.

Release Notes for Clutter 0.3
|
2009-12-22 13:10:39 -05:00
|
|
|
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
2007-06-19 09:03:39 -04:00
|
|
|
|
2007-06-22 11:16:40 -04:00
|
|
|
* ClutterTexture changes:
|
|
|
|
+ clutter_texture_set_pixbuf() now takes a GError paremeter.
|
|
|
|
+ clutter_texture_upload_data has been split into two new and
|
|
|
|
more functional versions; clutter_texture_set_from_rgb_data(),
|
|
|
|
clutter_texture_set_from_yuv_data().
|
|
|
|
|
2007-06-19 10:52:19 -04:00
|
|
|
* The GLX specific API has been moved to the GLX backend code and
|
2009-04-30 17:19:43 -04:00
|
|
|
it's now under the ClutterGlx namespace.
|
2007-06-19 10:52:19 -04:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* The priority of the various users of the GLib main loop has been
|
|
|
|
reviewed and changed were necessary. Every paint is queued with a
|
|
|
|
priority of G_PRIORITY_DEFAULT + 10; timelines are allocated with
|
|
|
|
a G_PRIORITY_DEFAULT + 30 priority; events are processed with a
|
2007-06-22 11:16:40 -04:00
|
|
|
G_PRIORITY_DEFAULT priority. This ensures that events are processed
|
2007-06-19 10:52:19 -04:00
|
|
|
before the paints take place.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* The ClutterActor::allocate_coords() has been renamed to
|
|
|
|
ClutterActor::query_coords(), in order to clarify its usage.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Actors overriding ClutterActor::request_coords() and
|
|
|
|
ClutterActor::query_coords() must convert sizes obtained from the
|
|
|
|
public API from pixels to ClutterUnits, using the conversion
|
|
|
|
macros found in clutter-units.h. The conversion will be necessary
|
|
|
|
until the public API will switch over to returning the generic
|
|
|
|
units too.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Users of Intel video cards should find that disabling sync-to-vblank
|
|
|
|
is no longer necessary. In case Clutter applications take really
|
|
|
|
long times for redrawing and appear stuck and unresponsive, the
|
|
|
|
sync-to-vblank feature might still be the culprit; in that case, use
|
2007-06-21 10:52:18 -04:00
|
|
|
"export CLUTTER_VBLANK=none" to disable it and file a bug reporting the
|
|
|
|
video card model, the driver version and the X server version.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* ClutterTimeline objects now share the same timeout pool (see the
|
|
|
|
ClutterTimeoutPool API). This might cause problems with heavily
|
|
|
|
threaded libraries without integration with the GLib main loop.
|
|
|
|
If an application experiences bad behaviours during animations
|
|
|
|
use "export CLUTTER_TIMELINE=no-pool" to disable the timeout pool.
|
2007-06-19 09:03:39 -04:00
|
|
|
|
2007-06-22 11:16:40 -04:00
|
|
|
* clutter_color_parse() now handles color definitions with alpha. Alpha
|
|
|
|
will default to fully Opaque rather than fully transparent if not specified.
|
|
|
|
|
2009-04-30 17:19:43 -04:00
|
|
|
* The Clutter examples/ directory has been removed and replaced with a
|
2007-06-22 11:16:40 -04:00
|
|
|
tests/ directory.
|
|
|
|
|
2007-06-29 10:16:47 -04:00
|
|
|
* The ClutterEvent API has been changed, and specific functions have been
|
|
|
|
removed in favour of event-agnostic ones.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* The ClutterStage::input-event signal has been removed. All the events now
|
|
|
|
emit the ClutterStage::event and ClutterStage::event-after signals, for
|
|
|
|
generic event handling.
|
2007-06-22 11:16:40 -04:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Runtime options now dependant on backend.
|
|
|
|
|
2007-06-29 10:16:47 -04:00
|
|
|
* ClutterGroup API to add, remove and list children has been deprecated in
|
|
|
|
favour of ClutterContainer API. The ClutterGroup::add and
|
|
|
|
ClutterGroup::remove signals have been deprecated:
|
|
|
|
ClutterContainer::actor-added and ClutterContainer::actor-removed should
|
|
|
|
be used instead.
