Since we are trying to eliminate the ClutterGeometry type, we should
replace the only entry point still using it: the ::cursor-event signal
of ClutterText.
Instead of passing the cursor geometry, we should add an accessor
function.
The combination of signal and getter for the cursor geometry means that
we can deprecate ClutterText::cursor-event, and mark it for removal in
Clutter 2.0.

The target size is not always enough, there are cases where the offset
used to paint the target must also be available for developers
implementing an OffscreenEffect.
The get_target_rect() method returns the rectangle used to paint the
target, with the offsets in the ClutterRect:origin and the texture size
in the ClutterRect:size fields, respectively.
The get_target_size() method should be deprecated, given that its
replacement is generally more useful.

Being able to set a marker at a normalized point on a timeline, instead
of using a specific time, is a nice fit with the current Timeline class
API.

Export the last event received for each touch point in its entirety,
instead of duplicating ClutterEvent accessors one at a time.
examples/pan-action.c has been updated to show the type of the event
that's causing the panning.

TapAction is a GestureAction-subclass that handles clicks and
tap gestures. It is meant to provide a replacement for ClickAction
using GestureAction:
• it handles events trasparently without capturing them, so that it
can coexists with other GestureActions;
• the ::tap signal is not emitted if the drag threshold is exceeded;
• building upon GestureAction the amount of code is greatly reduced.
TapAction provides:
• tap signal, notifying users when a tap has been performed.
The image-content example program has been updated replacing its
ClickAction usage with TapAction.

The ClutterEventSequence structure is a fully opaque type; on X11, it is
just an unsigned integer that gets converted into a pointer, but in the
future it may become a fully fledged data structure.
Obviously, we cannot tell people to just dereference the pointer into an
integer in order to use it, and still retain the ability to change the
type; for this reason, we need a proper accessor function to convert the
EventSequence into a touch detail, to be used with the XInput API.
PanAction is a GestureAction-subclass that implements the panning
concept for scrollable actors, with the ability to emit interpolated
signals to emulate the kinetic inertia of the panning. PanAction provides:
• pan signal, notifying users of the panning gesture status;
• pan-stopped signal, emitted at the end of the interpolated phase
of the panning gesture, if enabled;
• pan-axis property, to allow constraining the dragging to a specific
axis;
• interpolated property, to enable or disable the inertial behaviour;
• deceleration property, to customize the rate at which the momentum
of the panning will be slowed down;
• acceleration-factor property, applied to the inertial momentum when
starting the interpolated sequence.
An interactive test is also provided.

Add some accessors to simplify common tasks for GestureAction users:
• clutter_gesture_action_get_motion_delta() to get the delta
on the X and Y axis in stage coordinates since the last motion
event, and the scalar distance travelled;
• clutter_gesture_action_get_velocity() to get an estimate of the
speed of the last motion event along the X and Y axis and as a
scalar value in pixels per millisecond.

Allow setting a ClutterRect on the drag action and force the
dragged actor's position to be always within that rectangle (relative
to the actor's parent).

The :transform property controls the modelview matrix of an actor; it
can be used to set a custom modelview matrix on the actor, as opposed
to the decomposed transformations (rotation, scaling, translation)
provided by the ClutterActor class.
Another progress function from the CSS3 Transitions specification, using
a parametrices cubic bezier curve between (0, 0) and (1, 1) with two
control points.
(sadly, no ASCII art can approximate a cubic bezier, so no graph)
The cubic-bezier() progress function comes with a bunch of preset easing
modes: ease, ease-in, ease-out, and ease-in-out, that we can map to
enumeration values.
The CSS3 Transitions specification from the W3C defines the possibility
of using a parametrized step() timing function, with the following
prototype:
steps(n_steps, [ start | end ])
where @n_steps represents the number of steps used to divide an interval
between 0 and 1; the 'start' and 'end' tokens describe whether the value
change should happen at the start of the transition, or at the end.
For instance, the "steps(3, start)" timing function has the following
profile:
1 | x
| |
| x---|
| ' |
| x---' |
| ' |
0 |---' |
Whereas the "steps(3, end)" timing function has the following profile:
1 | x---|
| ' |
| x---' |
| ' |
x---' |
| |
0 | |
Since ClutterTimeline uses an enumeration for controlling the progress
mode, we need additional API to define the parameters of the steps()
progress; for this reason, we need a CLUTTER_STEPS enumeration value,
and a method for setting the number of steps and the value transition
policy.
The CSS3 Transitions spec helpfully also defines a step-start and a
step-end shorthands, which expand to step(1, start) and step(1, end)
respectively; we can provide a CLUTTER_STEP_START and CLUTTER_STEP_END
enumeration values for those.
This patch brings 'enter-event' and 'leave-event' generation for touch
based devices. This leads to adding a new API to retrieve coordinates
of a touch point.

This reverts commit 7f6b17bc50.
ClutterLayoutManager implementations should just defer the easing state
set up to the child, and not try to impose a global one.
We need an alternative to the translation performed by the anchor point,
one that possibly applies to all three axes and is relative to the
pivot-point.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=677853
For some transformations we need to be able to set the Z component of
the pivot point.
Unlike :pivot-point, the Z coordinate is not normalized because actors
are 2D surfaces.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=677853
Given that the rotation transformations are now affected by the pivot
point, the Actor class should provide an accessors pair only for the
angle of rotation on a given axis.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=677853
The pivot point is a point in normalized coordinates space around which
all transformations revolve.
It supercedes the anchor point and the per-transformation center points
as well as the gravity settings, and tries to sort out the mess that
is the modelview matrix set up in ClutterActor.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=677853
The ClutterActor:depth property has always been a bit of a misnomer:
actors are 2D flat surfaces, so they cannot have "depth"; the property
defines the position on the Z axis.
Another side effect of the :depth property is that it decides the
default paint and allocation order on insertion, and that setting it
will call the ClutterContainer.sort_depth_order() method. This has
proven to be a fairly bad design decision that we strung along from the
0.x days, as it gives a false impression of being able to change the
paint and allocation order simply by changing the position on the Z
axis — something that, in reality, requires depth testing to be enabled
during the paint sequence of an actor's parent.
For 2.0 we need a clean break from the side effects, and a better
defined interface.
ClutterActor:z-position is essentially what ClutterActor:depth is, but
doesn't call into ClutterContainer, and has a more apt name.

It can be useful to check whether a ClutterActorIter is currently valid,
i.e. if the iterator has been initialized *and* if the actor to which it
refers to hasn't been updated.
We can also use the is_valid() method in the conformance test suite to
check that initialization has been successful, and that changing the
children list through the ClutterActorIter API leaves the iterator in a
valid state.
ClutterContent implementations may allow repeating their contents when
painting; we should provide the repeat policy on the actor, like we do
for scaling filters and content gravity.
ClutterGridLayout is port of GtkGrid to a Clutter layout manager. All
the logic is taken from gtkgrid.c, so all the credits should go to
Matthias Clasen for writing this nice piece of code.
ClutterGridLayout supports adding children with it's own methods
GridLayout.attach() and GridLayout.attach_next_to() as well as
Actor.add_child() and friends. The latter adds children in a similar
fashion to ClutterBoxLayout

The plain C bytes array, while convenient from a C perspective, is not
well handled by language bindings: the length of the array is not
specified, and it's only just implied by the image data size, rowstride,
and pixel format.
GBytes is a read-only bytes buffer that has an implicit length; we can
use it as the storage medium so that language bindings can actually
function correctly.
It's similar to to the implicit animation API of ClutterActor and
compatible to deprecated API of ClutterBoxLayout and
ClutterTableLayout.
It adds :use-animations, :easing-mode, :easing-duration and
:easing-delay properties to control animations when allocation of a
child has changed. Layout manager implementers should call
use_animations = clutter_layout_manager_get_easing_state (manager,
&mode,
&duration,
&delay);
from the allocate() virtual function to access these values.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=676827
Instead of going through clutter_event_get_state() and checking if the
modifier mask is set, we can provide simple convenience functions to do
it for us.
The :x-expand and :y-expand flags on ClutterActor are used to signal
that an actor should expand horizontally and/or vertically - i.e. that
its parent's layout management policy should try to assign extra space
to the actor when allocating it.
The expand flags are automatic: when set on a leaf node in the actor
tree, they will bubble up through the parent and grandparents up to the
top level actor; during allocation, the actors with children will lazily
compute whether their children needs to expand.
