Version 3.1.12
--------------
Time for a new release that provide bugfixes and new features.
- De-icoification of the full-screened windows have been fixed. They
will appear now in full-screen without border or title.
- Non wanted qjackctl and medias icons have been fixed. They should
not appear any more as we can control those programs from the
music button and menu.
- Restrict Fullscreen to non FvwmButtons windows. It was possible to
bring the buttons in full screen, and this is not wanted.
- Unification of the desktop geometry. All the recipes have now
the same 8 pages by 1 geometry. This fix the lost window issue
whit recipe changes. The "Clean vertival" recipe has been removed
in the process, but it was the same than Vertical anyway.
- The Icon-Launcher is now available in all the recipe through a
new preference setting: Desktop manager -> Thunar.
This is the same setting than "None", but with icons for all
the mounted partitions. Clicking on those icons will open
Thunar at the corresponding mount point. Simple and fast.
- Some styles order fixes.
- Last but not least, the font preferences have been fully rewritten.
They are now under the form of a Font Selector that provide
all the old settings into one dialog. Font styles support have
been added, and the selected font is shown with its selected
size and style. Of course, the example string can be edited,
saved for later use and restored to its default value.
This Font Selector is a FvwmScript with full xft and GetText suppot.
That make it much easier to use than old style Fvwm font selectors
using the core font. Xft support imply also full UTF-8 suport.
This was already the case with Fvwm-Crystal old font preferences
sytem, but this new font selector is just the best.
- Help needed with more translations, colorsets, decoration and
whatever you can think about. Please considere to contribute.
Version 3.1.7
-------------
A long wanted release that provide both new features and bugfixes.
- Font and Font Size preferences. That's a big change!
- Full rewrite and debugging of the different maximize functions,
including the full-screened mode. Fullscreen have been extended
with a Disapear function, which give us one of the best feature
of the Amiga OS, the ability to cycle trough the full-sceened
applications and the workbench (dekstop). See that as another way
to cycle trough desktop space.
A new Minimize is includded as well. It will reduce the window size.
- The Amiga recipe is almost fully rewritted.
It provide a double top bar that is more AmigaOS like (mac users
will like it too). The notification aera is moved near the media
button. The swallowing of the trayer application is fixed.
The buttons at the bottom are now in a range, with the possibility
to show only some of them.
- NumLock Fix for the focus policies. The NumLonk interferences on the
Amiga, FVWM-Crystal with raise and MSWindow focus policy styles should
be history now.
- New Wing-Commander recipe by Peter McConnell. Nice and fonctionnal.
- New Fullscreen recipe. A work in progress but still usable, if you
like to have nothing on your desk.
- A lot of style loading order fixes. The FvwmForm and FvwmIdent
windows doesn't need anymore a restart to be readable.
- A few new colorsets and windows decorations.
- The mixer controls are moved into a unique file.
- Music controls in 2 parts, 1 file for the common functions of the
players, and one file per player for their specific functions.
- Media preferences moved to the media button or menu.
- Unified media button with recipes that support it.
- The MPlayer control use now dvdnav. DVB support and capture of MPEG
sources have been added. Capture use the standard MPlayer "c" key.
- Some environment variables, including some preferences, have been
comverted to the new InfoStore FVWM variables. FVWM-Crystal will
check the user preferences and convert them when needed at startup.
- FVWM versions older 2.6.5 are not supported anymore.
- Launch of Info browser using xemacs, tkinfo or pinfo from the developer
menu.
- Fixed the icon generation of fvwm-crystal.generate-menu. Some of
the icons was producing libpng warnings at stderr.
- Dropped habak support, which produced X BadValue Errors at restart, in
favor of feh. As feh is huge, hsetroot is now the first avaible choice.
