Keyboard dragging while holding Control now moves the cursor to the
target square. Shift-Control-arrowkey performs the previous behavior
of Control-arrowkey.
Its absence was breaking the icon build on Ubuntu 14.04, because you
ask convert to map an image into a specific 16-colour palette, and it
does so and _then_ nonconsensually maps those colours in turn through
a colourspace transformation you didn't ask for, causing icon.pl to
fail an assertion when it finds an RGB value not in the palette.
I think I did this in GTK2 on the basis that our server-side cache
pixmap was double-buffering enough for us - any puzzle which erased a
big area with a background rectangle and then redrew over the top of
it would do so only on the off-screen pixmap, and the updates would
only be copied to the visible window after it was all done.
In GTK3, I don't think there's any need - this is all the usual way
things are done anyway, as far as I can see. So I've turned this call
back off, at least until I hear of a reason why I need it again.
In GTK 2, we had a big pile of horrible code to deal with the fact
that it's very hard to open a window in such a way as to make it easy
to resize smaller as well as bigger.
Essentially, we'd open the window with the drawing area's minimum size
request set to the desired _initial_ window size; then we'd wait until
GTK had finished creating other window components (menu bar, status
line) and the window's size allocation had settled down, and finally
reduce the size request to the real minimum size so that now the
window was resizable in both directions. This also involved some
deliberate checking of the Ubuntu Unity GTK extension which steals the
menu bar and put it elsewhere (see commit 8f8333a35), to avoid us
waiting forever for a menu bar that wasn't going to show up.
But in GTK3, this has all become actually sensible! All we now have to
do is to set the window's geometry hints to indicate the drawing area
itself as the base widget (probably a good plan anyway), and then we
can set the initial size using gtk_window_set_default_geometry() and
resize it later using gtk_window_resize_to_geometry(). So now we can
completely condition out all of the previous horrors, and consider
them to be legacy GTK2 compatibility code only. Phew.
This is what GTK 3 uses in place of 'expose_event'. Also I've arranged
here for my internal USE_CAIRO_WITHOUT_PIXMAP setting to be enabled in
GTK3, as well as in GTK2 with deprecated functions disabled.
This also involves setting some "hexpand" properties on the widgets
contained in the GtkGrid, to achieve effects which GtkTable did by
setting flags in gtk_table_attach.
When GDK_DISABLE_DEPRECATED is defined, we now don't have fe->pixmap;
instead we just maintain our client-side window contents in fe->image,
and draw from there directly to the window in the expose handler.
We were packing the GtkTable into the dialog's content area using
gtk_box_pack_end, which had the slightly silly effect that resizing
the config box vertically would keep all the controls aligned to the
_bottom_ rather than the top.
Sometimes, we can get a "configure_area" event telling us that the
drawing area has changed size to the same size it already was. This
can happen when we change puzzle presets in a way that doesn't change
the size, and also sometimes seems to happen as a side effect of
changing the text in the status line.
In that situation, it's a waste of effort - and can cause visible
on-screen flicker - to throw away the window's backing image and
pixmap and regenerate them from scratch. So now we detect a non-resize
and avoid doing all that.
The only thing we retain unconditionally in configure_area is the
midend_force_redraw, because that's the place where a puzzle redraw is
forced when changing presets or loading a new game.
At minimum size (3x3) Galaxies can generate a pre-solved single dot
game.
You have to add and remove a line to get the victory flash which is a
bit weird, so just prevent this.
Apple upgraded me to Xcode 7 yesterday, and now [NSString cString]
gives a deprecation warning, which -Werror turns into a full-on build
failure. Explicitly specify an encoding.
(I mention in a comment that there's an alternative piece of API that
I possibly ought to be using instead, but until I make a concrete
decision about where my backwards compatibility threshold is, I'll
leave it as it is for the moment.)
