A TableLayout is a layout manager that allocates its children in rows
and columns. Each child is assigned to a cell (or more if a cell span
is set).
The supported child properties are:
• x-expand and y-expand: if this cell with try to allocate the
available extra space for the table.
• x-fill and y-fill: if the child will get all the space available in
the cell.
• x-align and y-align: if the child does not fill the cell, then
where the child will be aligned inside the cell.
• row-span and col-span: number of cells the child will allocate for
itself.
Also, the TableLayout has row-spacing and col-spacing for specifying
the space in pixels between rows and between columns.
We also include a simple test of the layout manager, and the
documentation updates.
The TableLayout was implemented starting from MxTable and
ClutterBoxLayout.

Layout managers are using the same code to allocate a child while taking
into consideration:
• horizontal and vertical alignment
• horizontal and vertical fill
• the preferred minimum and natural size, depending
on the :request-mode property
• the text direction for the horizontal alignment
• an offset given by the fixed position properties
Given the amount of code involved, and the amount of details that can go
horribly wrong while copy and pasting such code in various classes - let
alone various projects - Clutter should provide an allocate() variant
that does the right thing in the right way. This way, we have a single
point of failure.
Added a new recipe for creating a non-rectangular
actor using ClutterPath (aka "shaped pick") and
the Cogl primitives API.
Also cleaned up XML alignment in the actors.xml
file.
It's a XSL FAQ to be able to chomp text nodes and we just have to copy
and paste a XSLT 1.0 solution from:
http://dpawson.co.uk/xsl/sect2/N8321.html#d11325e833
Let's then empower our cookbook customization layer to chomp text nodes,
children of programlisting.
The generated cookbook files (either HTML or PDF) do not only depend on
clutter-cookbok.xml but also on all the chapters that compose the
cookbook. Add this dependency to the Makefile rules to have make rebuild
the book when a chapter changes.
Since XML_FILES is now the list of source files, move recipe-template.xml
to EXTRA_DIST.
New recipe covering how to animate rotation of
an actor (in all axes).
Covers various factors affecting rotation animation
(like orientation of axes, parent rotation/orientation),
as well as trying to make rotations easier to visualise
(e.g. describing how rotation direction is affected by
those factors, how a rotation can be expected to look
when animated). Uses implicit animations for code examples.
Also refers to a full code example which uses ClutterState.
The simple key press example in the cookbook used a brittle
and incorrect switch statement to test modifier values. Instead,
use logical "&" of the state with the modifiers we're interested
in to check which keys were pressed.

The cookbook should also include fully functional code examples. We can
even XInclude them into the docbook XML itself.
The examples should be built with the coobook, so that we can always
make sure they are up to date.
* elliot/cookbook-include-videos:
cookbook: Tweak so that videos sit inside a paragraph for better spacing
docs: Note the P_() macro in the HACKING file
cookbook: Added support for inline video
Conflicts:
doc/cookbook/Makefile.am
Explains how to make an actor transparent so that other actors
are visible through it.
Also explains a bit more generally about opacity and how
it's computed from the actor, container, and color; and how actor
visibility is affected by depth (fog) and depth order.
Amended Makefile to copy content of videos directory into
installation directories. Also copies videos and images
into the html/ directory during the build, so that the
built cookbook can be viewed locally (for testing without
having to install).
Added an XSLT template to transform Docbook <inlinemediaobject>
elements into HTML 5 <video> elements, with a fallback to
link to the video displayed for browsers without HTML 5 support.
Added note to "Contributing" appendix explaining how to put
video into a recipe.
