Log Message:
Update gtk3 to version 3.8.2
Rename patch-gtk_a11y_gail.c to patch-gtk_a11y_gtkaccessibility.c
Many improvements, bug fixes and translation updates:
https://git.gnome.org/browse/gtk+/tree/NEWS?id=3.8.2
Highlights:
* Deprecations and removals:
- Custom CSS properties have been deprecated
- Support for color schemes has been removed
- gtk_style_provider_get_style, gtk_style_provider_get_icon_factory
- GtkGradient and GtkSymbolicColor
- All the padding style properties in menus
* CSS improvements:
- Add cycle detection to color resolving
* A lot of filechooser button fixes
* The print dialog now shows printers that are discovered
using avahi, if configured with --enable-avahi-browsing
* We now support the Window Manager frame synchronization protocol draft (when
running under a WM that supports it). This means applications will throttle
their drawing cycle to what the compositor is drawing, and the compositor
will never render half-updated windows, for seamless resizing and improved
smoothness in drawing.
See https://mail.gnome.org/archives/wm-spec-list/2013-January/msg00000.html
and the articles at http://blog.fishsoup.net/ for more details.
* We now support setting an opacity to any GtkWidget, not just toplevels:
gtk_window_set_opacity has been deprecated in favor of gtk_widget_set_opacity.
* GtkIconTheme gained asynchronous loaders for GtkIconInfo objects
* GtkIconInfo has changed from being a boxed type to a GObject. This
is technically an ABI change, but basically all existing code
will keep working if its used as a boxed type, and its not
possible to instantiate GtkIconInfos outside Gtk, so this is not
expected to be a big problem.
* GtkTreeView and GtkIconView allow single-click activation
* GtkImage can be set from a resource
* GdkWaylandDisplay is now public
* gdk_window_set_fullscreen_mode: new function to let windows
be fullscreened across multiple monitors
* We now use state flags for text direction: GTK_STATE_FLAG_LTR/RTL.
gtk_style_context_set_direction() has been deprecated.
* We install headers for accessible implementations of GTK+ widgets.
This makes it possible to implement accessibility for third-party
widgets by subclassing the proper GTK+ implementation. To do this,
include gtk/gtk-a11y.h.
* Invisible widgets now return a size of 0x0. This is an experimental
change that makes GtkWidget::visible essentially behave the same way
that "display: none" does in CSS. If you want the effect of CSS's
"visibility: hidden", you can use a GtkNotebook with an empty page.
* GtkFrame now draws a background.
* The Broadway backend now installs a separate server: broadwayd.
* GtkBuilder now lets you refer to external objects from a ui
file if the objects have been exported with the new function
gtk_builder_expose_object()
* Font handling has been improved:
- The default font is no longer handled like a custom style sheet
that overrides everything, but as the initial value. This is the
same behavior as in web browsers.
- It is now possible to set font-family and font-size like other
CSS properties, and relative font sizes are supported. Font
sizes in CSS can be specified as numbers or with keywords
like xx-small, medium, smaller, larger,...
* GTK+ now uses proper Unicode ellipses in strings.
