+ <title>New Animations</title>
+ <media type="image" src="figures/new-animations.png"/>
+ <p>New animations have been added for this release, creating a more engaging and smooth experience. The
new transitions are prominent in the Activities Overview, when viewing application launchers and application
folders. Window animations have also been improved for this release, with new transitions when opening,
closing, and minimizing windows.</p>

+ <title>Software Keeps Getting Better</title>
+ <media type="image" src="figures/placeholder.png"/>
+<p>GNOME's new facility for browsing and installing applications has been making major progress in recent
releases, and &gnomeversion; is no exception. The home page, which presents featured and recommended
applications, has been enhanced with an improved layout, increased content, and star ratings. Application
addons are now supported, and can be installed directly from within <app>Software</app>, and many more
applications now provide screenshots and descriptions, to make it easier to find the application you want.</p>
+ </section>
+
+ <section id="theme">
+ <title>Reworked Visual Theme</title>
+ <media type="image" src="figures/adwaita.png"/>
+<p>A huge amount of attention to detail has gone into GNOME &gnomeversion;. The visual theme used by
applications has been overhauled from the ground up, with many subtle improvements. Switches have a different
appearance, have improved animations, and can be slid from one side to another. Progress bars have a new,
more compact appearance. Spinners have a new design, and menus have an improvemd appearance.</p>
+ </section>
+
+ <section id="boxes">
+ <title>Added Useful in Boxes</title>
+ <media type="image" src="figures/placeholder.png"/>
+<p>&gnomeversion; is a big release for <app>Boxes</app>, the GNOME application for virtual and remote
machines. This version introduces snapshots, which allows you to save a virtual machine at a particular
moment in time and return to it later. This is particularly useful for returning to a known working state.</p>
+
+<p>Automatic downloading is another useful feature in &gnomeversion;: just give <app>Boxes</app> the address
to an install image, and it will automatically download and install it for you. This version of
<app>Boxes</app> also includes many other smaller improvements, such as the abitily to run multiple boxes in
their own separate windows, express installation for Debian, user interface improvements, and new keyboard
shortcuts.</p>

+
+ <section id="games">
+ <title>New-Look Games</title>
+ <media type="image" src="figures/placeholder.png"/>
+<p>GNOME's games have continued to modernize for this release. <app>Mines</app> and <app>Sudoku</app> have
both been redesigned, and have new graphics and improved user interfaces. A new game has also been introded
for &gnomeversion;. Called <app>Hitori</app>, this is a number-based puzzle game, similar to Sudoku.</p>
+ </section>
+
+ <section id="yelp">
+ <title>Streamlined Help</title>
+ <media type="image" src="figures/placeholder.png"/>
+<p><app>Help</app>, the GNOME documentation browser, had a major update for &gnomeversion;. Redesigned to be
consistent with other GNOME 3 applications, it is now much more compact and streamlined. The new application
uses a header bar to save space, has an integrated search function, a modern, overlaid find box, and a new
bookmarking interface. Together, these make for a more modern and efficient experience.</p>

+
+ <section id="evince">
+ <title>Modern Evince</title>
+ <media type="image" src="figures/placeholder.png"/>
+ <p>&gnomeversion; includes a redesigned <app>Evince</app>. The new version of the document viewer
incorporates a header bar, to give more space to your documents. When it is launched without a document being
specified, <app>Evince</app> will also show a useful overview of your recent documents.</p>
+ <p>The latest <app>Evince</app> also includes high-resolution display support and enhanced
accessibility, including keyboard navigation of forms.</p>
+ </section>
+
+ <section id="more">
+ <title>Other Improvements</title>
+
+ <list>
+ <item><p><app>Contacts</app> has received a batch of user interface improvements. Contact creation now
happens in-line, rather than in a dialog, and the setup assistant has been improved. Many dialogs have also
been refined to match GNOME 3 design guidelines.</p></item>
+ <item><p>Gedit includes a collection of improvements in &gnomeversion;. Opening documents has been
improved in <app>gedit</app> &gnomeversion; with a new popover, which allows you to quickly search recent
documents. <app>gedit</app> includes a collection of other smaller improvments, including a new header bar
menu and new and updated keyboard shortcuts and mnemonics.</p></item>
+ <item><p><app>Music</app> has gained a powerful new search feature, which allows you to search either
your local music collection or online sources, such as <link href="http://magnatune.com/">Mangatune</link>
and <link href="https://www.jamendo.com">Jamendo</link>. With 3.14, it is also possible to create your own
music playlists.</p></item>
+ <item><p><app>Maps</app> has a new route planning feature for &gnomeversion;. Implemented using the
open source <link href="https://graphhopper.com/">GraphHopper</link>, this allows you to plan journeys by
foot, bicycle or car. It is possible to add points along your desired route, and the route is displayed as a
simple set of instructions.</p></item>
+ <item><p>System search has become even more useful, with the addition of search providers from
<app>Calculator</app> and <app>Clocks</app>. This allows you to find the time for a city or perform
calculations directly from the search box.</p></item>
+ <item><p>When using several monitors, GNOME will now remember which display each window has been
placed on. This is particularly useful for laptops with docking stations.</p></item>
+ <item><p>GNOME's geolocation framework has been improved, by using <link
href="https://location.services.mozilla.com/">Mozilla's Location Service</link> for 3G and network-based
positioning. This results in increased accuracy, which will continue to improve in the future.</p></item>
+ <item><p>Touch screen support has been improved with reliable on-screen keyboard behaviour.</p></item>

<title>CSS Integration for Icons and Assets</title>
- <media type="image" src="figures/placeholder.png"/>
+ <media type="image" src="figures/css-icons-and-assets.png"/>
<p><app>GTK+</app>'s CSS support has continued to expand with 3.14, and now features closer integration
with icon themes and SVG assets. Icons from the icon theme can be called directly from CSS, and SVG assets
can be used to style spinners, arrows, checkmarks, radiomarks and expanders. This can be used to integrate a
<app>GTK+</app> theme with an icon theme for a consistent look and feel, and provides a convenient way to
style symbolic theme elements.</p>
<p>SVG icons and assets can also be styled and transformed with CSS. Symbolic icons can be recolored,
and can have shadows and animations applied. A theme can also specify where regular or symbolic (monotone)
icon variants should be used.</p>

<title>Another Wayland Milestone</title>

+ <media type="image" src="figures/wayland.png"/>
<p>3.14 is another significant milestone on the path to full Wayland adoption for GNOME. Critical pieces
of missing functionality have been filled in, including keyboard configuration, touch screen support, drag
and drop support, functional context menus, tooltips and comboboxes, high-resolution display support, and
window move/resize.</p>
<p>Stability has also been greatly improved over the 3.14 development cycle, and a large number of bugs
have been fixed. As a result of this work, GNOME now provides a usable Wayland experience, which can serve
the basis of further testing and stabilisation work.</p>
<p>Developers are encouraged to test GNOME and their applications with <app>Wayland</app>. Further
details about this, and about GNOME on Wayland in general, can be found on the <link

<title>Gestures</title>
- <media type="image" src="figures/placeholder.png"/>

<p><app>GTK+</app> now includes support for gesture interaction. With 3.14, the majority of common
multitouch gestures are available for use in <app>GTK+</app> applications, such as tap, drag, swipe, pinch
and rotate. Gestures can be added to existing <app>GTK+</app> applications using <code><link

<title>New Default GTK+ Theme</title>
- <media type="image" src="figures/placeholder.png"/>
+ <media type="image" src="figures/widget-factory.png"/>
<p>From 3.14, Adwaita has replaced Raleigh as the default <app>GTK+</app> theme. This ensures that GTK+
has an attractive, complete, and up-to-date default theme for all platforms. Adwaita utilizes all the latest
<app>GTK+</app> CSS features, and supports all of <app>GTK+</app>'s new widgets.</p>
<p>To support this move, Adwaita has been rewritten from the ground up for 3.14. The new version is more
compact, maintainable and flexible, and makes use of more CSS features, such as animations.</p>

<title>Human Interface Guidelines</title>
- <media type="image" src="figures/placeholder.png"/>

<p>GNOME 3.14 includes a new and updated set of Human Interface Guidelines (HIG). These provide thorough
design guidance for the latest <app>GTK+</app>, enabling developers and designers to make the most of the
toolkit. The HIG includes guidelines on layout, writing style, icons, typography and input. It also
incorporates a collection of design patterns, which you can use to construct a fully-featured application
design, as well as design notes on the various GTK+ widgets.</p>
<p>The new version of the HIG is designed to provide guidance for all <app>GTK+</app> users, including
authors of cross-platform applications, as well as those targetting GNOME 3.</p>
