Overview of Changes in 4.13.6, 25-01-2024
=========================================
This release changes the ngl renderer to be the default renderer.
The intent of this change is to get wider testing and verify that
the new renderers are production-ready. If significant problems
show up, we will revert this change for 4.14.
You can still override the renderer choice using the GSK_RENDERER
environment variable.
Since ngl can handle fractional scaling much better than the old gl
renderer, we allow fractional scaling by default with gl now. If you
are using the old gl renderer (e.g. because your system is limited to
GLES2), you can disable fractional scaling by setting the GDK_DEBUG
environment variable to include the gl-no-fractional key.
* GtkColumnView:
- Fix infinite loops in dispose
- Fix problems with weak ref cycles in GtkExpression
* GtkListView:
- Fix some corner cases with sections during insertions and deletions
- Don't double-recycle widgets
* GtkStack:
- Add automatic cleanup for GtkStackPage
* GDK:
- Use standard cursor names for drag cursors
- Enable fractional scaling with gl by default
* GSK:
- Many fixes and improvements to the unified renderers:
- Fix text rendering with the uber shader
- Fix rounding issues with fractional scales
- Fix some memory leaks
- Many text rendering fixes
- Implement subpixel positioning for glyphs
- Support custom fonts in node files
- Add tests for font rendering
- Fix drawing of repeat nodes
- Implement subpixels positioning
- Evict stale textures, glyphs and atlases from the cache
- Some fixes and improvements to the GL renderer:
- Fix problems with GLES on Nvidia
- Avoid a crash in the mask demo
- Respect opacity of the first child node in containers
- Some fixes and improvements to the fallback renderer:
- Fix drawing of repeat nodes
- Make ngl the default renderer
* Wayland:

- Fix change notification for accessible names on some widgets
* Inspector:
- Show the git commit in devel builds

News in 5.11.1, 2024-02-12
--------------------------
This is a development release for GNOME 46.beta
* A new -Dbuild-testsuite configuration option
* Some build options were renamed to follow more closely
what GTK itself uses now.
-Dgtk_doc became -Ddocumentation
-Dinstall_tests became -Dinstall-tests
* Improvements to BuilderBlocks font to support Windows
- This supports FontConfig on Windows currently
- With Pango 1.52.0 it will support win32 font loader
* Fix a rendering issue where the gutter would not highlight
the same as the current-line-highlight.
* An optimization for line number drawing which avoids using
PangoLayout when drawing.
* Ensure the gutter is redrawn when focus leaves text view
* Improved support for input methods when X11 and ibus are
used by making it behave closer to Wayland input methods.
* Ignore the current-line highlight when out of view which
improves the damage area calculation in GTK.

========================================
libdex 0.5.0
============
This is a beta release for GNOME 46.
* Various API now warns about unused results to help avoid unintended
leaks of futures.
* dex_file_query_exists() is a new wrapper for g_file_query_exists()
* Documentation fixes
libdex 0.4.3
============
This release contains a few more followup fixes for fallback scheduling,
particularly on Linux systems without io_uring. We've also enabled CI
to test this situation more closely as we're most likely to run into it
on distribution build systems running older Linux kernels.
* New build options for disabling io_uring and eventfd support which
enable testing more fallback paths in CI.
* Worker threads will now use a GMainLoop instead iterating GMainContext
manually.
* An idle is used for scheduling work items directly onto a worker thread
instead of going through the global work queue when not already running
on a worker thread. Otherwise the lock-free work queue is used.
* A fix for a potential deadlock when failing to create an additional
worker thread.
* Fix a release build warning.

========================================
librsvg
========================================
Version 2.57.91
===============
- #943 - Rsvg-convert now prints a helpful message if you run it
without arguments, to indicate that it is reading from standard
input.
- #902 - Take text orientation into account for 'ch' units
(Mackenzie Morgan).
- For Rust programs, the rsvg crate no longer depends on gdk-pixbuf.
Hopefully this means that your Rust programs will have to link to
one fewer library.
- The C enumeration RsvgUnit now has a RSVG_UNIT_CH variant for "ch"
units. However, this is only used for reporting the size of SVG
documents, which should very seldom come in "ch" units.
- #1055 - Fix unsoundness in the use of the selectors crate.
- Update gtk-rs crates (Bilal Elmoussaoui).
Version 2.57.90
===============
librsvg crate version 2.58.0-beta.0
- Librsvg no longer uses gdk-pixbuf for loading raster images; all
image loading uses Rust code now. Older versions of librsvg would
use the traditional libpng and libjpeg-turbo libraries, and
gdk-pixbuf's own GIF decoder. Starting with this version of
librsvg, it only uses Rust crates for image codecs.
In addition, librsvg will no longer accept any arbitrary image
format that gdk-pixbuf happens to support: the only supported
formats for the <image> element are PNG, JPEG, GIF, WEBP, and SVG.
(The SVG2 specification only mandates PNG and JPEG.)
The reasons for using Rust image loaders are as follows:
- Reduce the attack surface from memory-unsafe libraries. While
libpng/libjpeg-turbo are very well tested and extensively fuzzed,
other gdk-pixbuf loaders are not as well tested. Switching to
memory-safe code sounds like a better idea for the future.
- Make using librsvg easier on Windows and MacOS, where installing
gdk-pixbuf is somewhat tricky.
- Give a chance to the Rust image codecs to improve by having more
people test them from a widely-used code base like librsvg. GNOME
has already uses the Rust image crates in the Loupe image viewer,
and this has led to fixes in the image crates.
- Support SVG2 semantics for referencing other SVG documents in an
<image> element. For historical reasons, librsvg just used
gdk-pixbuf to recurse into itself in that case. Now it handles
SVG sub-images directly.
The normal SVG loader for gdk-pixbuf that librsvg installs is
unchanged; you can still load SVG images with gdk-pixbuf as usual.
The refactoring to load images directly in Rust is based on
Emile Snyder's work from some months ago.
- #902 - Add basic support for "ch" length units in CSS (Mackenzie Morgan).

act as if it were not running on an as-needed, per-app basis with
Ctrl+Alt+Shift+Q. This makes it much easier to use VMs in which
another screen reader is being used as well as self-voicing apps.
Orca should remember what apps are currently in sleep mode so it is
only necessary to enable it once per app in a given session. Note
that Orca does not currently store the setting permanently. This is
intentional, and is the same behavior as NVDA, but an option may be
created in the future to permanently store the setting.
* Orca now has commands to present information about the system without
having to navigate to the bar or widget that displays them:
* Present CPU and memory usage (unbound, requires psutil)
* Present battery status (unbound, requires psutil)
* Table navigation commands now work everywhere; not just in web
browsers and LibreOffice. In addition to the existing commands,
the following commands have been added:
* Orca+Shift+T: toggle table navigation (it's enabled by default)
* Orca+Alt+Shift+Left/Right/Up/Down: move to the final cell in
the specified direction.
In addition, Orca's dynamic header commands from LO should now work
everywhere, including Google Docs and other web-based editors. These
bindings have changed. The new bindings are:
* Orca+Shift+R: Set the cells to be treated as column headers to
this row.
* Orca+Shift+R double-click: Unset the dynamic column headers row.
* Orca+Shift+C: Set the cells to be treated as row headers to this
column.
* Orca+Shift+C double-click: Unset the dynamic row headers row.
* Orca's outdated tutorial message feature has been removed. In its
place is support for customized help messages which application and
toolkit developers can provide via ATK/AT-SPI2's new "help text"
API. At the present time, we are unaware of any implementations
and thus have not enabled these new tutorial messages by default.
Developers seeking to test their implementation can enable Orca's
presentation of tutorial messages in the Orca Preferences dialog.
* We now always use Atspi's device API for Orca commands. This was
initially in place only for Gtk 4 apps, which do not report keystrokes
to us for optional construction. Having addressed the majority of
issues with this new API, we believe it is ready to be used for all
applications and toolkits.
Web and Electron Apps Improvements:
* Include DLs in list navigation and DTs in list item navigation.
Also improve presentation of nested lists.
* Improve presentation of VSCode's selection containers.
* Web: Improve performance of navigation to end of document
LibreOffice Bug Fix:
* Ensure the entire word count dialog is presented when the dialog
is shown.
General Improvements and Fixes:
* Improve performance by identifying and quickly dismissing obsolete
accessible events.
* Improve performance by using AT-SPI2's cache for everything.
* Fix bug causing utterances to be split up unexpectedly
* Announce the has popup state even in non-web contexts.
* Lots of code clean-up and more work to eliminate our dependency
on pyatspi.
