  • List of changes since Clutter 1.24

    - Improvements in the evdev input backend for Clutter-based compositors

    - Allow changing the Cogl driver sequence
    It's possible to select the Cogl driver (GL, GL3, GLES2) at compile time
    and run time, with the ability to specify the sequence of drivers to be
    selected on failure.

    - Allow changing the Clutter backend sequence
    It's possible to fall back at run time to a different backend if the current
    one is not supported.

    - Allow non-editable, selectable Text actors
    The editability and selectability of text inside Text actors have been
    decoupled.

  • List of changes since Clutter 1.25.6

    - Avoid spamming accessibility state changes in clones
    Clones of unmapped actors will cause a temporary mapping of their source,
    which will result in spurious accessibility events.

    - Ignore GDK deprecation compiler warnings

    - Resync build configuration for Windows

    - Translation updates
    Serbian, Swedish, Catalan, Occitan, Greek, Latvian, Russian, Danish

  • List of bugs fixed since Clutter 1.25.6
