Clutter 1.7.6                                                        2011-07-26
===============================================================================

  • List of changes since Clutter 1.7.4

    - Accessibility fixes in Cally
    Fix the implementation of the AtkText interface for ClutterText.

    - Depend on the new Cogl windowing system API.

    - Add functions for retrieving the clip boundaries on the Stage
    The clutter_stage_get_redraw_clip_bounds() function is useful for
    window managers (like Mutter) that need to retrieve the clipped
    region used on the Stage.

    - Auto-detect the default flavour when building
    The default flavour used when building should be set depending
    on the platform.

    - Mark the OSX backend as non-experimental
    The OSX backend is being developed, and maintained, so it should
    not be considered experimental.

    - Make sure that Gestures are cancelled when missing release events

    - Correct the rounding for paint volumes
    Try to provide stable results against potential floating point rounding
    margins when projecting 3D paint volumes into screen bounding boxes;
    this should avoid re-creating FBOs and always correctly handle clipped
    redraws.

    - Do not clobber XI2 events data
    This allows to play along with other toolkits using XI2.

    - Fix ClutterSnapConstraint's right edge snapping

    - Deprecations
    ClutterScore, clutter_texture_new_from_actor(),
    clutter_cairo_texture_create*()
