| **************************************************************************** |
| * Important Behavior Changes * |
| **************************************************************************** |
| |
| - AbstractButton, Control, and Container now calculate their implicit size |
| based on the implicit size of the content item plus paddings, and the |
| implicit size of the background item. This makes it convenient to implement |
| custom controls and buttons, because the implicit size calculation for |
| these abstract/non-visual base types works as expected out of the box, but |
| may cause surprises if an application relies on the old behavior that a |
| custom control does not have any implicit size by default. |
| |
| - Drawers have been changed to follow the same visibility rules than all |
| other types of popups do. This means that drawers no longer stay visible |
| at the window edge in order to intercept input events, because that caused |
| severe conflicts in input handling and stacking order between multiple |
| drawers and other popups. |
| |
| - Popups have been fixed to respect explicitly set width and height. |
| Previously, explicitly set size was accidentally ignored when a popup had |
| implicit size set. |
