wxMotif CHANGES
---------------
21/9/98
-------
Julian:
- Made makefiles for wxMotif source directory and minimal sample.
- First go at wxApp, wxWindow, wxDialog, wxPen, wxBrush, wxFont,
wxColour, wxButton, wxCheckBox, wxTextCtrl, wxStaticText,
wxMenu, wxMenuItem, wxMenuBar
12/11/98
--------
It's a long time since I updated this file. Previously done:
- wxFrame, wxDialog done.
- wxScrolledWindow done (but backing pixmap not used at present).
- wxBitmap done though could be tidied it up at some point.
- Most basic controls are there, if not rigorously tested.
- Some MDI support (menus appear on child frames at present).
- wxNotebook almost done.
- wxToolBar done (horizontal only, which would be easy to extend
to vertical toolbars).
More recently:
- Colour and font changing done (question mark over what happens
to scrollbars).
- Accelerators done (for menu items and buttons). Also event loop
tidied up in wxApp so that events are filtered through ProcessXEvent.
- wxWindow::GetUpdateRegion should now work.
25/11/98
--------
- Reimplemented MDI using wxNotebook instead of the MDI widgets, which
were too buggy (probably not design for dynamic addition/removal of
child frames).
- Some improvements to the wxNotebook implementation.
- wxToolBar now uses a bulletin board instead of a form, in an attempt
to make it possible to add ordinary wxControls to a toolbar.
- Cured problem with not being able to use global memory operators,
by defining two more global operators, so that the delete will match
the debugging implementation.
- Added wxUSE_DEBUG_NEW_ALWAYS so we can distinguish between using
global memory operators (usually OK) and #defining new to be
WXDEBUG_NEW (sometimes it might not be OK).
- Added time.cpp to makefile; set wxUSE_DATETIME to 1.
- Added a parent-existance check to popup menu code to make it not crash.
- Added some optimization in wxWindow::SetSize to produce less flicker.
It remains to be seen whether this produces any resize bugs.
3/12/98
-------
- Debugged DrawEllipticArc (a ! in the wrong place).
- Added SetClippingRegion( const wxRegion& region ).
- Added wxPoint, wxSize, wxRect versions of SetSize etc.
- Diagnosed but not yet cured a wxTreeCtrl bug (see todo.txt).
4/12/98
-------
- Got further with wxTreeCtrl, fixing wxWindow::Refresh on the way,
and adding Clear(const wxRect&). Mainly the scrolling to sort out now,
and inter-line spacing.
- Fixed some problems with wxListCtrl espec. trying to call m_mainWin
functions when it wasn't initialised. As with the wxTreeCtrl sample,
removed usage of wxTextCtrl as a stream (doesn't seem to agree
with gcc) and the sample is now partially working. Some work
on the scrollbars is required.
- wxListCtrl assumed that one of the args to GetClientSize can be NULL:
corrected.
