| Qt 3.0.1 is a bugfix release. It maintains both forward and backward |
| compatibility (source and binary) with Qt 3.0.0 |
| |
| |
| **************************************************************************** |
| * General * |
| **************************************************************************** |
| |
| - Style Engine fixes |
| Qt 3.0 introduced a new and more flexibile style engine. This |
| release should fix most of the small visual flaws that the new |
| styles introduced. It also greatly improves appearance in |
| right-to-left mode. |
| |
| - MS-Windows XP |
| This is the first release to fully support Windows XP, |
| including the new themable GUI styles. |
| The Windows XP style can only be built as a plugin, which requires |
| Qt to be configured as a shared library. To build the plugin |
| you must install a Microsoft Platform SDK for October 2001 |
| or later. Your INCLUDE and LIB environment variables must |
| point to the respective directories in the SDK installation. |
| |
| - Reverse (right-to-left) layouts |
| Many classes have improved support for right-to-left layouts. |
| |
| - Compile fixes |
| Solaris 7 Intel, g++ version 2.8.1. |
| |
| - Documentation updates |
| Some new and improved diagrams and minor textual revisions. |
| |
| - Mac only: Drag'n'drop |
| Mac only: QDropEvents can decode HFS flavors. |
| |
| - X11 only: Multi-head (multi-screen) improvements |
| Support for different TrueColor depths on each head (screen). |
| Drag'n'drop support across multiple screens. Tooltips always |
| stay on the correct screen. Improved OpenGL support on |
| multiple screens. Qt 3.1 will support different color depths |
| on every screen (e.g. one TrueColor screen, one 8-bit |
| PseudoColor and one 8-bit GreyScale). |
| |
| |
| **************************************************************************** |
| * Library * |
| **************************************************************************** |
| |
| - QAction |
| Fixed a memory leak in conjunction with action accelerators. |
| Turn toggle actions off when toggling is turned off with |
| setToggleAction(FALSE); |
| |
| - QApplication |
| Shared double buffers are cleaned up on destruction. |
| Creating and using multiple QApplications in the same process |
| is supported. |
| - Solaris only: Default to the Interface System font (which is |
| the default for the CDE) |
| - Win32 only: When WM_QUERYENDSESSION is received, _flushall |
| is called to ensure that all open streams and buffers are |
| flushed to disk (or to OS's buffers). |
| Better support for more input methods (e.g. Chinese). |
| Enter events are not propagated to modally blocked widgets. |
| Key_BackTab events are generated rather than Shift+Key_Tab. |
| Floating toolbars are blocked when the application is modal. |
| Move and Resize are disabled in the system menu for |
| maximized toplevel windows |
| - WinXP only: WM_THEMECHANGED messages are handled; widgets |
| are repolished with the appropriate style. |
| - X11 only: Removed misleading warning message for main |
| widgets on heads (screens) other than the default head. |
| Input context: Solved a memory leak in Xlib, and saved a |
| server round trip when updating the microfocushint. |
| Worked around some broken XmbLookupString implementations |
| that do not report buffer overflows correctly. |
| Key events are never given to a widget after clearFocus() |
| has been called for that widget; this is the same behavior |
| as Windows. |
| |
| - QAquaStyle (MacOS X only) |
| More optimizations and several minor visual bugs fixed. |
| |
| - QCanvas |
| Erase any exposed empty space when shrinking the canvas. |
| |
| - QCanvasPixmapArray |
| Initialize the framecount to 0. |
| |
| - QCanvasView |
| Optimize background pixmaps: potentially they were drawn |
| twice, first untranslated then translated. |
| |
| - QClipboard (X11 only) |
| The race conditions that cause KDE to lock-up occasionally |
| should now be fixed. |
| |
| - QComboBox |
| Fixed behavior with non-selectable items. Fixed a crash when |
| calling setCurrentItem(-1). Fixed autoscrolling when dragging |
| the mouse directly after opening the dropdown. |
| |
| - QColor |
| Make invalid named colors return a non-valid QColor (as |
| documented). |
| |
| - QColorDialog (Win32 only) |
| Use WStyle_DialogBorder, since resizing this dialog does not |
| make much sense. |
| |
| - QCommonStyle |
| Respect QApplication::globalStrut() in scroll bars. Support |
| reverse layout in QTitleBar. |
| |
| - QCursor |
| Safer cleanup of cursor shapes (avoids possible free'd memory |
| read) |
| - Win32 only: fixed application override cursor with mouse |
| grabbing. |
| |
| - QDate |
| Fixed some possible overflows. |
| - Win32 only: Improve locale support for short day and month |
| names etc. Initialize milliseconds correctly. |
| |
| - QDateTimeEdit |
| Display AM/PM if set by locale. Improved sizeHint(). |
| |
| - QDockAarea |
| More reliable sizeHint(). Better support for reverse layouts. |
| |
| - QDockWindow |
| Emit the placeChange() signal more reliably. Avoid floating |
| docks popping up everywhere before they have been positioned |
| and laid out. |
| |
| - QDesktopWidget |
| - X11 only: When using normal dualhead (not Xinerama), make |
| sure we report the correct screen number. |
| - Win32 only: refresh on WM_DISPLAYCHANGE. |
| |
| - QFrame |
| New panel styles LineEditPanel and TabWidgetPanel. This was |
| required by the new for Windows XP support. |
| |
| - QFileDialog |
| Show unicode filenames to the user rather than encoded ASCII |
| (e.g. previously latin1 characters were shown as "%XX" |
| escapes). |
| Fixed multiple-selection of FTP files. |
| Emit signal fileHighlighted in existingfile mode. |
| - Mac only: Fixed existingFolder(). Fixed window position so |
| that it will never fall outside the screen. |
| - Win32 only: since files, directories and drives are not case |
| sensitive, we don't add an extra entry in the paths box if |
| the path already exists but with different case. |
| |
| - QFileInfo (Unix only) |
| Make sure that symlinks pointing to invalid/non-existing |
| targets are reported as symlinks. |
| |
| - QFont |
| Ensure a rounded-off value is returned from pointSize(). |
| - x11 only: improved line width calculation. Fixed off by one |
| error in interpreting Xft font extents. Allow the use of |
| both Xft and non Xft fonts in the same application. Make |
| sure fonts are antialiased by default when using |
| xftfreetype. |
| |
| - QFontDialog |
| Prevent re-laying out when the size of the preview label |
| changes. |
| |
| - QFtp |
| In parseDir(), do not compare English month names to |
| shortMonthName(), since the latter is localized. |
| |
| - QGList |
| Make self-assignments work. |
| |
| - QGLWidget |
| Fixed ARGB to RGBA conversion on BigEndian systems. |
| - Win32 only: fixed colormap for 8-bit RGBA GL mode. |
| - X11 only: multiple heads with different color depths fixes. |
| |
| - QHebrewCodec |
| Assume the bidi algorithm is a reversible operation for the |
| visual 8859-8 codec. This is not true for very complex strings |
| but should hold in most cases. |
| |
| - QIconSet |
| Fixed detach() to really detach the internal pixmaps. In case |
| no image formats are installed, show black pixmaps rather than |
| ASSERT. |
| |
| - QImage |
| Allow 16-bit DIBs. Allow > 32767 level PNMs. |
| Fixed smoothscale() for the following bug: whenever |
| (new_width / original_width * 4096) is not an integer the last |
| column of the scaled image is black. |
| |
| - QImageIO |
| Fixed plugin loading in cases where the image format is |
| explicitly defined. |
| |
| - QInputDialog |
| Disable the OK button when input is not Acceptable. |
| (See QValidator.) |
| |
| - QLabel |
| When showing rich text with tables (via QSimpleRichtext), |
| avoid drawing the table background. |
| |
| - QLayout |
| In reverse layout mode: fix off by one error when laying out |
| right to left or bottom to top. |
| |
| - QLineEdit |
| Fixed offset calculation for horizontal scrolling. Invoke |
| validator when the user presses Backspace or |
| Delete. Compression of the undo/redo stack fixed. Security: do |
| not reveal the position of spaces with Ctrl+RightArrow or |
| Ctrl+LeftArrow in password mode. |
| |
| - QListBox |
| Append items at the proper position even after sorting the |
| content. Made QWidget::setBackgroundMode() work correctly. |
| |
| - QListBoxPixmap |
| Use the function pixmap() when drawing the pixmap, so users |
| can reimplement QListBoxPixmap::pixmap(). |
| |
| - QListView |
| Fix misalignment of checkbox click zone. Make the selected and |
| focus rectangles cover the entire column for QCheckListItems |
| if the listview root is not decorated. Make |
| QWidget::setBackgroundMode() on the viewport work correctly. |
| Comply with user interface guidelines: clear the selection |
| when a click is in an empty area unless the Ctrl key is down. |
| Fixed possible crash when starting a rename with a double |
| click. Smarter ensureItemVisible(). Draw listview background |
| in paintEmptyArea() with the current style. Ensure the |
| listview always has a current item. |
| |
| - QMainWindow |
| Better laying out of dockareas when they are all empty. |
| Otherwise an empty QMainWindow looks unappealing in a |
| workspace. Maintain the toplevel layout's resize mode. |
| |
| - QMessageBox |
| Avoid double deletion if the parent is destroyed while the |
| messagebox is open. Support y/n/c shortcuts without needing |
| the Alt key modifier. |
| |
| - QMovie |
| Allow pause() and restart() with MNG. |
| |
| - QMultiLineEdit |
| Remove internal trailing space when returning a textline with |
| textLine(int) and querying lineLength(int). |
| |
| - QPainter |
| The boundingRect() should now work properly for the |
| combination richtext, right-aligned and an empty initial rect. |
| Handle DontClip-flag in the painter's complex drawText() |
| function. Reset the cached composition matrix (and inverse) |
| when reinitialising a painter. |
| |
| - QPicture |
| Fixed the loading of binaries from older Qt versions. |
| |
| - QPixmap |
| grabWidget(): when the widget sets WRepaintNoErase it might |
| erase itself with the non-redirected QWidget::erase(); restore |
| those areas. |
| - X11 only: (with XRENDER extension) when copying a pixmap, |
| bitBlt the entire data into the new pixmap instead of using |
| alpha composition. |
| |
| - QPopupMenu |
| Fixed strange side effects with the menu effects. Support |
| minimumSize() for popups. Fixed a navigation issue where |
| Key_Right under certain circumstances was not propagated to |
| the menu bar. Speedups when disabling/enabling menu items |
| before showing them. |
| - X11 only: Fixed mouse and keyboard grabbing side effects |
| with popup menu effects enabled. |
| |
| - QPrintDialog (built-in dialog) |
| Use the text in the lineedit for the file dialog. |
| |
| - QPrinter |
| Fixed crash when printing with incomplete combined unicode |
| fonts. |
| - Win32 only: fixed a very rare and mysterious crash. |
| |
| |
| - QPSPrinter |
| Make sure the fontPath is read correctly by the postscript |
| driver, and the qtconfig program. Small memory leaks closed. |
| Better support for Asian printing. Limit line length of |
| Postscript DSC comments to 255 chars (as per the postscript |
| specification). |
| |
| - QRichText |
| Fixed handling of  . Support both <qt title="..."> and |
| <title>. Avoid painting \n at the end of lines (these |
| sometimes appeared as an empty unicode box). Fixed find() in |
| "whole words only" mode. Fixed unicode auto alignment. Made |
| cursor movement in BiDi paragraphs compliant with MS-Windows. |
| Fixed paragraph right and center alignments when using <br> |
| tags. Fixed superscript/subscript confusion. |
| |
| - QScrollBar |
| Allow scrolling with modifier keys pressed. |
| |
| - QScrollView |
| Made autoscrolling work with drag and drop. Never generate |
| paintevents that are outside the visible area. |
| |
| - QSettings |
| - Unix only: search paths are valid for individual objects, |
| NOT every object (windows behavior). When reading files, |
| don't replace the old groups with contents of the new |
| groups; merge them instead. Properly escape backslashes and |
| newlines. |
| - win32 only: improved error handling. Fixed subKeyList() and |
| entryList() for empty paths. |
| |
| - QSimpleRichText |
| Correctly transform clipping rectangle. |
| |
| - QSizeGrip |
| Reverted sizeHint() to the old size to avoid making the |
| statusbar a tiny bit too big. Support right-to-left layout. |
| |
| |
| - QSgiStyle |
| Made the combobox arrow look nicer. Fixed disabled combobox |
| drawing. |
| |
| - QSlider |
| Fixed click handling for reverse layouts. |
| |
| - QSpinBox |
| Usability fix: when changing a value with the up/down arrow |
| keys or with the arrow buttons, select the new value. |
| |
| - QSplitter |
| Use the actual QSplitter pointer as documented (and not a |
| QSplitterHandle pointer) as the parameter to the |
| QStyle::sizeForContents() call. Fixed reverse layouts when |
| splitter movement is constrained. |
| |
| - QSqlRecord |
| Fixed double increment of the iterator in certain |
| circumstances. |
| |
| - QString |
| Fixed QString::setLatin1() when the length parameter is 0. |
| - Unix only: Use strcoll() in QString::localeAwareSorting(). |
| - Mac only: clarify that local8Bit() is always utf8(). |
| |
| - QStyle |
| New frame styles for tab widgets, window frames and line edit |
| controls. This was required by the new support for Windows XP. |
| Added SH_ScrollBar_StopMouseOverSlider style hint so that one can |
| turn on (or off) the ability to stop pageup/pagedown when the |
| slider hits the mouse (this is needed for Aqua on MacOS X). |
| |
| - QSvgDevice |
| Many fixes for saving and restoring attributes that are not |
| part of QPainter. Processing of 'tspan' elements. Now uses |
| double instead of int for internal 'path' arithmetic for |
| better scaling results. Supports QPicture's coordinate |
| transformations. |
| |
| - QTabBar |
| Fixed the focus rectangles and spacing with icons and label |
| texts. |
| |
| - QTable |
| Improved layout in right-to-left mode. Fixed adjustRow() when |
| using header items with icon sets. Do not let hidden |
| columns/rows re-appear when adjusting. Update header correctly |
| when changing a table's dimensions. Correctly reset the |
| updatesEnabled flag in sortColumn(). Fixed modifying the |
| contents of a combobox or checkbox table item while it is the |
| current cell. |
| |
| - QTableItem |
| Make sure an item cannot span over a table's maximum number of |
| rows and columns. |
| |
| - QTabWidget |
| Constrain the sizehint to avoid having oversized dialogs. |
| |
| - QTextCode |
| Rename iso8859-6-I to to 8859-6. The old name is still |
| supported for backwards compatibility. |
| - Win32: implemented locale(). |
| - Mac: implemented locale(). |
| |
| - QTextDrag (Win32 only) |
| Performance improvements in encodedData(). |
| |
| - QTextEdit |
| Fixed HTML output. New property tabStopWidth. Fixed append() |
| and made it smarter: it only scrolls to the end if the view |
| was scrolled to the end before. Proper reformatting when |
| switching word wrap policies. Do not blink the cursor when the |
| textedit is disabled. Make isModified() return the new value |
| in slots connected to the modificationChanged() signal. |
| - X11 only: middle mouse selection pasting sets the cursor |
| position. |
| |
| - QTextStream |
| Faster string output in latin1 mode. |
| |
| - QThread |
| - Unix only: initialize threads in non-GUI mode as well. |
| - Win32 only: fixed the initial value of QThread::running(). |
| |
| - QToolButton |
| Fixed unwanted occurences of delayed popup menus. |
| |
| - QUrlOperator |
| Fixed the cache, so that QUrlInfo::name() is set correctly for |
| renamed files. This bug also affected QFileDialog. More |
| careful check whether a file is writable before renaming or |
| deleting it. |
| |
| - QValueVector |
| Make operator==() const. Fixed some sharing issues. |
| |
| - QVariant |
| Fixed a few memory leaks when casting complex values to simple |
| types. Faster operator==(). |
| |
| - QWaitCondition (Win32 only) |
| Fixed wakeAll(). |
| |
| - QWhatsThis |
| Make QWidget::customWhatsThis() work with menu accelerators. |
| Avoid infinite loops with menu effects. |
| |
| - QWidget |
| Fix default focus so that setTabOrder( X, Y ); setTabOrder( Y, |
| Z ); gives focus to X, not Y or Z. Closing a modal dialog with |
| a double click on a widget could result in a mouse release |
| event being delivered to the widget underneath; this has been |
| fixed. |
| Set/Reset WState_HasMouse on DragEnter/DragLeave. |
| - Win32 only: obey WPaintUnclipped. Make reparent() with 0,0 |
| positions do the requested positioning. |
| - X11 only: when reparenting widgets to/from toplevel, make |
| sure the XdndAware property is set. Make input methods work |
| with servers other than kinput2. More fixes for 4Dwm's |
| incompliance with ICCCM 4.1.5 regarding geometry handling. |
| When hiding toplevel windows, we call XFlush() to avoid |
| having popup menus hanging around grabbing the mouse and |
| keyboard while the application is busy. Obey the 'erase' |
| value in repaint(const QRegion& reg, bool erase). |
| |
| - QWindowsStyle |
| Various visual fixes, including fixes for right-to-left |
| mode. Most significantly the light source now comes from the |
| top left also in reverse layout the same as modern versions of |
| Windows. |
| |
| - QWorkspace |
| Support document windows without title bars. Scroll to top |
| left corner when cascading/tiling a scrolled workspace. Define |
| a proper baseSize() for workspace children. Fix some side |
| effects with the workspace's maximize controls on Windows |
| style. Don't raise windows over scrollbars. Clients can now |
| call adjustSize() on the workspace when their sizeHint() |
| changes. When showing two scrollbars, maintain a solid corner. |
| Obey a document window's maximum size when tiling. |
