Hello, Batik 1.5beta1 is available! This is the first release since 1.1.1.
The release name increment (from 1.1.x to 1.5x) is due to the much improved support for scripting in this new release. Batik now supports modification of SVG graphics through scripting which allows dynamic updates to SVG documents in response to user events and even animations of graphical elements. Specifically, Batik now provides extensive support for DOM Core (modification of 'x' or 'y' attributes on a <rect>, for example), and for DOM Events (such as mouse events or attribute modification events). This release does not yet support dynamic updates of CSS properties nor SMIL animation. The new release contains examples of these features in the samples directory and in the samples/tests/spec/scripting directory. The new build is available at: 1. Binary distribution: http://xml.apache.org/batik/dist/batik-1.5beta1.zip 2. Source distribution: http://xml.apache.org/batik/dist/batik-src-1.5beta1.zip The README on the download page recaps the changes in the various developer releases since 1.0beta1. If you'd like to report bugs or request API changes/improvements, you can either post to the developer list or enter a bug in Bugzilla under the Batik project at: http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/ Thanks. Vincent Hardy, for the Batik Team. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
