This week in GTK+ – 25 – GTK Development Blog

In this last week, the master branch of GTK+ has seen 167 commits, with 8048 lines added and 6858 lines removed.

On the master branch:

The default value of the GtkFileChooser:local-only property is now FALSE, which means that file selections dialogs will automatically show non-local resources.
Benjamin Otte introduced the GtkSnapshot API, which works as a GskRenderNode builder for widgets, and aims to replace the immediate mode gtk_render_* family of functions.
Benjamin also changed the GtkDrawingArea API, which now works using an explicit callback function, instead of a the generic GtkWidget::draw signal.
Finally, Benjamin has implemented support for 3D CSS transformations in GTK+.
The GDK API to read back the contents of a GdkWindow into a GdkPixbuf have been removed, as their behavior and result are platform-dependent.
Matthias Clasen updated the GTK+ 3.x → 4.x porting guide, and the API reference, with the newest API additions.
Simon Steinbeiss updated the CSS styling for GtkProgressbar to add the empty and full classes when the progress is set to 0.0 or 1.0, respectively.
