This week in GTK+ – 23

In this last week, the master branch of GTK+ has seen 146 commits, with 10020 lines added and 16435 lines removed.

Planning and status

• Benjamin Otte worked on clarifying the relationship between various coordinate systems used in GTK+ and in gsk.
• Benjamin is also making changes throughout the tree in preparation for making all widgets window-less.
• Emmanule Bassi is working on finer-grained gsk render nodes for CSS rendering.
• The GTK+ road map is available on the wiki.

Notable changes

• Benjamin Otte added a frame recorder to the GTK+ inspector. See this post for more information.
• Timm Bäder and Benjamin converted more widgets to use indirect rendering with gsk render nodes.
• Matthias Clasen made the GtkTextAttributes structure private, thereby enabling further cleanups and the removal of the deprecated GdkColor type.
• Benjamin removed visuals.
