Glade 3.9.2 Released

[news 28]

Hi,

This is the third instalment on the Glade 3.9 cycle

leading up to Glade 3.10 and it depends on GTK+3 (currently

GTK+ version >= 2.99).

 

Highlights in this release include:

- Off screen rendering of project widgets, fancy selection drawing

- All project widgets are viewable in the same workspace widget

(scroll through the workspace and see every widget in your project).

- GtkComboBoxText support and a fancy little editor to easily edit

the items added to a GtkComboBoxText

- GtkFileFilter and GtkRecentFilter, now setup a list of patterns

and mime-types to add to your filters.

 

What is Glade?

============

Glade is a RAD tool to enable quick & easy development of user

interfaces for the GTK+ toolkit and the GNOME desktop environment.

The user interfaces designed in Glade are saved as XML, and by using

the GtkBuilder GTK+ object these can be loaded by applications

dynamically as needed.

 

By using GtkBuilder, Glade XML files can be used in numerous

programming languages including C, C++, C#, Vala, Java, Perl,

Python, and others.

 

===========

Glade 3.9.2

===========

- Added signal for IDEs to track created signal editors,

Johannes Schmid.

- Stop installing catalog .xml.in files, Emilio Pozuelo Monfort.

- Fixed various memory leaks.

- Removed GtkTreeSelection from the palette, it's only available as

the internal child of a GtkTreeView

- Fixed Drag'n'Drop image drawing with cairo for signal editor,

Johannes Schmid with help from Benjamin Otte.

- Fixed crashes and memory leaks in the GladeBaseEditor (the editor

used for menu editing and treeview editing and the like).

- Edit->Preferences is now File->Properties

- Removed option for project naming policies, object ids in

GtkBuilder are always unique across the whole file.

- Render project widgets in the workspace offscreen, this gives us

more power over the widgets (combo boxes can now be selected,

selection drawing is now enhanced), Juan Pablo Ugarte.

- Added support for GtkComboBoxText with a customized editor to

edit the combo box items.

- Added GtkRecentFilter and GtkRecentManager to the palette,

GtkRecentFilter can specify patterns, mime-types and applications

for the filtering.

- Added support to edit patterns and mime-types for GtkFileFilter

- Added to the plugin backend,

we now use this to better police user activities in Glade

(notably, you cannot paste a widget that is not a GtkToolItem

to a GtkToolBar or the like).

- Renamed various things from glade-3/glade3 to 'glade'

(the Glade icon, the bugzilla database, the git repository etc,

help from Javier Jardón).

- Glade now uses GtkApplication and is a single instance application.

- Added support for editing a GtkOffscreenWindow

- Changed the workspace to now include all toplevel project objects,

selecting an object from the inspector causes the workspace to scroll

to the selected widget, Juan Pablo Ugarte.
