File Release Notes and Changelog

Release Name: Woopsi Source 0.27

Notes:


Changes:
  - Fixes:
     - Renamed "font" to "sysfont".
     - Moved font includes out of "all_gfx.h".
     - Removed font inheritance (problematic with many gadgets).
     - Made font an optional parameter in all gadget constructors.
     - Removed font from constructors of window border gadgets that do not use a
       font.
     - Woopsi height based on top screen offset instead of an arbitrary number.
     - Private class members set to protected where appropriate.
     - "Gadget::setBorderless()" now invalidates rect cache.
     - Removed "Gadget::removeGadget()" function (request 1846590).
     - "Window::createBorder()" sets border focus correctly.
     - Window border gadgets base their colour on the parent's active flag
       rather than by abusing the focus system and their own active flags.
     - GraphicsPort was using SCREEN_WIDTH instead of _bitmapWidth when blitting
       bitmaps.
     - Fonts work with const u16* bitmap data instead of plain u16*.
     - Woopsi clears its background correctly when a screen closes.
     - Gadgets draw only those regions not obscured by children (previously
       broken by switch to region caching).
     - Gradient cache uses new instead of malloc.
     - Removed support for external bitmaps from SuperBitmap.
     - Renamed Gadget::getRectClippedToParent to
       Gadget::getRectClippedToHierarchy.
     - Making a gadget invisible makes its children invisible.
     - Fixed off-by-one error in Gadget::checkCollision() functions.
     - Fixed gadget-space to display-space co-ordinate problem in GraphicsPort
       clipping routines.
     - Removed GraphicsPort::clipXORRect() and replaced with bugfixed
       alternative.
     - Various functions in Gadget class now check isVisible() instead of
       _flags.visible.
     - focus() functions ignore the call unless the gadget is not active.
     - GraphicsPort will no longer draw to deleted/invisible gadgets.
     - Tidied up ambiguities in Gadget::closeChild().
     - Gadget::closeChild() function setting the active gadget pointer to top
       gadget in the stack, but the top gadget could have been the gadget
       being closed.
     - Fixed same problem in Gadget::hideChild().
 
  - New Features:
     - Added static system font routines to Woopsi class.
     - Gadgets automatically use system font if no font specified (bug 1846003).
     - Added "floodFill()" function to SuperBitmap (request 1816931).
     - Added "drawBitmap()" function to SuperBitmap (request 1813792).
     - Added "newBitmapGraphicsPort()" function to SuperBitmap.
     - Added "setFont()" function to Text.
     - Split Screen class into ScreenBase, AmigaScreen and SimpleScreen classes.
     - Added "permeable" flag to gadgets - if set to "true", child gadgets can
       be dragged to exceed the borders of their parents (ie. windows can be
       dragged off-screen).
     - Gadget::getRectClippedToHierarchy clips to entire ancestor tree.
     - Gadget::moveTo() enforces permeability of parent gadgets.
     - Gadget::resize() enforces permeability of parent gadgets.
     - Window::resize() enforces permeability of parent gadgets.
     - Changed VBL events so gadgets must register with Woopsi to receive them
       (request 1847147).
     - Centralised gadget deletion queue handling into static Woopsi functions.
     - Added Gadget::hideChild() function.
     - Added VBL counting and static getVBLCount() function to Woopsi class
       (request 1847147).
     - Split Window class into WindowBase, AmigaWindow and SimpleWindow classes.
     - Added text output methods with colour parameter to GraphicsPort and
       SuperBitmap classes.
