A new cairo release! We are pleased to annouce a new stable release of Cairo that brings many new features and performance improvements, all whilst maintaining compatibility with cairo-1.0 and all releases since. We recommend anyone using a previous release of Cairo to upgrade to 1.12.0. The major feature of this release is the introduction of a new procedural pattern; the mesh gradient. This, albeit complex, gradient is constructed from a set of cubic Bezier patches and is a superset of all other gradient surfaces which allows for the construction of incredibily detailed patterns. In PDF parlance, the mesh gradient corresponds with type 7 patterns. Many thanks to Andrea Canciani for bringing this to Cairo, and for his work on making gradient handling robust. Not content with just adding another procedural pattern, Cairo 1.12 also adds new API to create a callback pattern, cairo_pattern_create_raster_source, that allows the application to provide the pixel data for the region of interest at the time of rendering. This can be used for instance, by an application to decode compressed images on demand and to keep a cache of those decompressed images, independently of Cairo. When combined with the recording surface, it should form a useful basis for a deferred renderer. With the release of cairo-1.12, we also introduce a new supported backend for interoperating with X using XCB. Uli Schlachter, also w available maintainer of awesome and contributor to libxcb, has volunteered to maintain cairo-xcb for us. Thanks Uli! For cairo-1.12, we have also added some common API to address any surface as an image and so allow direct modification of the raster data. Previously, only the Quartz and Win32 backends supported a very narrow interface to allow for efficient pixel upload. Now with cairo_surface_create_similar_image, cairo_surface_map_to_image, and cairo_surface_unmap_image, Cairo exports a consistent method for treating those surfaces as an image and so allow modification inplace. These are the same routines used internally, and should support efficient transfer or direct mapping of the target surfaces as applicable. Another focus over the past year has been to address many performance issues, without sacrificing the composition model. To accomplish the goal, once again the rasterisation pipeline was overhauled and made explicit, giving the backends the freedom to implement their own specific pipeline whilst also providing a library of common routines from which to build the pipeline. For instance, this allows the image backend and the gl backend to composite scan line primitives inplace, and to then implement custom fallbacks to catch the corner cases that do not map onto their fastest paths. Similarly, this allows for the Xlib backend to implement trapezoidation without compromising the other backends, yet still allow for the pipeline to be used elsewhere for testing and fallbacks. Clipping was once again overhauled, so that the common cases for the raster pipelines could be captured and processed with fast paths with the emphasis on performing geometric clipping to reduce the frequency of using multi-pass clipmasks. Stroking was made faster, both by providing specialised fast-paths for simple, yet frequent, cases (such as stroking around a rectangle) and by reducing the number of edges generated by the general stroker. As part of the focus on performance, Cairo 1.12 introduces some antialias hints (NONE,FAST, GOOD, BEST) that are interpolated by the raserisers to fine tune their performance versus quality. Cairo 1.12 also introduces a new observation architecture, cairo_surface_observer_t, which can be used to analyse the amount of time consumed by drawing commands and help identify inefficiencies in both Cairo and the application. Last, but by no means least, the OpenGL backend has seen significant work including the port to GLESv2 and the exploitation of advanced hardware features. Interesting times. As always, I would like to thank everyone who contributed to Cairo, not only through

About PyGObject === GObject is a object system used by GTK+, GStreamer and other libraries. PyGObject provides a convenient wrapper for use in Python programs when accessing GObject libraries. Like the GObject library itself PyGObject is licensed under the GNU LGPL, so is suitable for use in both free software and proprietary applications. It is already in use in many applications ranging from small single purpose scripts up to large full featured applications. PyGObject now dynamically accesses any GObject libraries that uses GObject Introspection. It replaces the need for separate modules such as PyGTK, GIO and python-gnome to build a full GNOME 3.0 application. Once new functionality is added to gobject library it is instantly available as a Python API without the need for intermediate Python glue.

These enhancements are: 1. It offers a way to perform the various clicks without using any hardware button. (Hover Click) 2. It allows users to perform a secondary click by keeping the primary mousebutton pressed for a determined amount of time. (Simulated Secondary Click) These enhancements can be accessed through the Universal Access panel in the GNOME Control Center or through the command-line interface. === Distribution Notes: === Mousetweaks is implemented as a daemon that only runs when one of its features has been enabled. Apart the click-type window that can be used to control the type of the next simulated click, there is no graphical user interface shipping with mousetweaks. Distributions can create their own graphical user interface matching their desktop and use dbus to completely control mousetweaks. = What is new in this release ? = New and updated translations: [pa] A S Alam [pt_BR] Enrico Nicoletto [te] Krishnababu Krothapalli [zh_CN] YunQiang Su Many thanks to all contributors.

Mutter 3.4.0 released
About Mutter Mutter is a window and compositing manager that displays and manages your desktop via OpenGL. Mutter combines a sophisticated display engine using the Clutter toolkit with solid window-management logic inherited from the Metacity window manager. While Mutter can be used stand-alone, it is primarily intended to be used as the display core of a larger system such as GNOME Shell. For this reason, Mutter is very extensible via plugins, which are used both to add fancy visual effects and to rework the window management behaviors to meet the needs of the environment.

GNOME Shell 3.4.0 released
About GNOME Shell = GNOME Shell provides core user interface functions for the GNOME 3 desktop, like switching to windows and launching applications. GNOME Shell takes advantage of the capabilities of modern graphics hardware and introduces innovative user interface concepts to provide a visually attractive and easy to use experience. Tarball releases are provided largely for distributions to build packages. If you are interested in building GNOME Shell from source, we would recommend building from version control using the build script described at: http://live.gnome.org/GnomeShell Not only will that give you the very latest version of this rapidly changing project, it will be much easier than get GNOME Shell and its dependencies to build from tarballs.

What is GTK+
GTK+ is a multi-platform toolkit for creating graphical user
interfaces. Offering a complete set of widgets, GTK+ is
suitable for projects ranging from small one-off tools to
complete application suites.
GTK+ has been designed from the ground up to support a range
of languages, not only C/C++. Using GTK+ from languages such
as Perl and Python (especially in combination with the Glade
GUI builder) provides an effective method of rapid application
development.
GTK+ is free software and part of the GNU Project. However,
the licensing terms for GTK+, the GNU LGPL, allow it to be
used by all developers, including those developing proprietary
software, without any license fees or royalties. GTK+ is the
only 100% free-of-cost open source industrial-strength GUI
toolkit available today.
Since its origins as the toolkit for the GNU Image
Manipulation Program (GIMP), GTK+ has been used in a wide
range of software. Notably, GTK+ is the foundation of the
GNOME desktop.
What's new in 3.4
=
Major new features include:
* Menu support in GtkApplication
* A new color chooser
* Add support for touch devices
- New device types GDK_SOURCE_TOUCHSCREEN and
GDK_SOURCE_TOUCHPAD for direct and indirect
touch devices
- New event GdkEventTouch and GDK_TOUCH_MASK
- New signal GtkWidget::touch-event
* Add support for smooth scrolling
- Scroll events can contain scroll deltas,
obtainable via gdk_event_get_scroll_deltas()
- Scroll direction for such events is GDK_SCROLL_SMOOTH
- To receive scroll events, widgets must now
set either GDK_SCROLL_MASK or GDK_SMOOTH_SCROLL_MASK
* GtkScrolledWindow will do kinetic scrolling
with touch devices
Platform support:
* OS X support has been improved in many aspects:
- Better keyboard handling (use 'Command' and 'Option'
as modifiers)
- Menu support in GtkApplication
- Handle recursive CFRunLoops
* This is the first version of GTK+ 3 that works
well on Windows. Official builds of GTK+ 3.4.0 for
Windows are expected in the near future
* The Wayland backend has been updated to the
current Wayland API, and the backend is much more
complete now, with support for resize grips, grabs,
geometry and window type hints, clipboard and
selection support, etc.
* The Broadway backend has been updated to support
V7+ websockets.
Other improvements:
* Spin buttons have received a new look
* Accessibility: the treeview accessible support
has been rewritten and works much better now
* Theming
- More complete CSS support ('transparent' as color,
'background-clip', 'background-origin', 'background-size'
CSS properties, linear-gradient syntax)
- Support percentages, angles and other units in CSS
- Better notebook tab rendering
- Rounded corners for tooltips
- Unfocused windows can be themed differently

Announcing libsecret
libsecret is a library for storing and retrieving passwords and other secrets. It communicates with the "Secret Service" using DBus. gnome-keyring and ksecretservice are both implementations of a Secret Service. libsecret replaces libgnome-keyring. libsecret works with multiple threads, is introspectable, and uses proper async model. It also has GDBus style proxy objects for various keyrings and items on the server. As time permits I'll be coming around and posting patches for various projects that use libgnome-keyring to migrate them to libsecret. libsecret is not all stable yet. It has a basic password storage and retrieval API, which is (hopefully) stable: http://people.gnome.org/~stefw/libsecret-docs/simple.html There's a more complete API for power users (like seahorse), which isn't stable: http://people.gnome.org/~stefw/libsecret-docs/complete.html The goal is to use this 3.4 cycle to figure out any further issues with the libsecret API, and fix them up. Hopefully we can have something stable by 3.6 Source: http://git.gnome.org/libsecret [1] Documentation: http://people.gnome.org/~stefw/libsecret-docs/ [2] Cheers, Stef [1] Code importation not yet completed, as I want to have the liberty to be able to make drastic changes for the next few weeks...

ATK 2.4.0 released
About ATK = GNOME provides support for accessibility devices using the ATK framework. This framework defines a set of interfaces to which graphical interface components adhere. This allows, for instance, screen readers to read the text of an interface and interact with its controls. ATK support is built into GTK+ and the rest of the GNOME platform, so any application using GTK+ will have reasonable accessibility support for free. Nonetheless, you should be aware of accessibility issues when when developing your applications. Although GTK+ interfaces provide reasonable accessibility by default, you can often improve how well your program behaves with accessibility tools by providing additional information to ATK. If you develop custom widgets, you should ensure that they expose their properties to ATK. You should also avoid using sound, graphics, or color as the sole means of conveying information to the user. The GNOME desktop ships with a number of accessibility tools which enable users with disabilities to take full advantage of their desktop and applications. Applications that fully implement ATK will be able to work with the accessibility tools. GNOME's accessibility tools include a screen reader, a screen magnifier, an on-screen keyboard, and Dasher, an predictive text entry tool.
