This is a stable release of Dynamic Windows version 2.5. The current Dynamic Windows source base is considered stable on: OS/2, Mac, Windows, Linux, FreeBSD and Solaris. Known problems: Boxes with no expandable items will have their contents centered on GTK2 instead of top or left justified on the other platforms. GTK3 due to changes in the core architecture does not support widgets that are smaller than what is contained within them unless they use scrolled windows. GTK2 and other platforms do. In Unicode mode on OS/2 there are some bugs in the input controls, minor bugs in entryfield based controls and major bugs in the MLE. The text displays properly but the cursor and selection jumps around oddly when passing over multibyte characters. Known limitations: It is not safe on all platforms to operate on widgets before they are packed. For portability pack widgets before operating on them. Future features: OS/2 is currently missing the HTML widget because the system does not support it by default. Looking into importing functionality from available libraries (Firefox, Webkit, Qt, etc). Changes from version 2.4: Added dw_window_set_focus() to focus a widget after the window is shown. Added DW_FCF_TEXTURED flag on Mac, which enables textured backgrounds which had been the default on Mac prior to 2.5. Added keyboard support for non-entryfield controls on Mac. Added tab support for notebook controls on Windows and OS/2 and in the process rewrote and optimized the existing tab code. Added bitmap button support for dw_window_set_bitmap(). Added full alpha channel support for bitmaps from file on GTK2. Added support for handling Mac application menu Quit and dock Quit. Use DW_DESKTOP as window handle to dw_signal_connect(). Improved transparency support for pixmaps/bitmaps from file on OS/2. Fixed tab support for bitmap buttons which broke in 2.4 on Windows. Fixed a notebook crash early in creation on Mac. Fixed unusable scrollbars on Ubuntu Linux when overlay scrollbars are enabled. We now disable overlay scrollbars when creating. Fixed dw_window_function() not working on non-toplevel windows on Windows and OS/2. Fixed building 64bit with Visual C 2012 and MINGW gcc on Windows. Dynamic Windows Documentation is available at: http://dbsoft.org/dw_help.php I would like to dedicate this release to my father, James Smith. He passed away this summer and was the most amazing individual I have ever had in my life. Without him this software would not be able to exist in so many different ways. Love you Dad.
