GTK+3 Completes Its Rendering Clean-Up
Posted by Michael Larabel on October 02, 2010
Just days after the release of GNOME 2.32, focusing on GNOME 3.0 development for next March has now regained center stage. It was in August that GTK+ began using more of Cairo for its tool-kit drawing and then dropped DirectFB support, but with today's release of GTK+ 2.91.0 (the latest GTK+ 3.0 snapshot) the rendering clean-up of GNOME's tool-kit is complete.
As a result of this rendering clean-up to GTK+, parts of the API has changed with GtkStyle functions being changed to use Cairo arguments, eliminating the GdkPixmap, and many other changes.
All of the latest changes to GTK+ 3.0 can be found in this release announcement.
