LGI

This version added tooltip support and a hand cursor, sped up the rendering of text, added more HTML documentation, and fixed some screen update issues in the edit control. The HTML table layout algorithm was rewritten, a drag and drop bug was fixed, and the GFile object was improved to handle files larger than 2 GB. The directory code now works with files of between 2 and 4 GB correctly. PNG transparency support was fixed, header sniffing support was added to the image loader, and GSocketImpl::Accept was fixed.

Buffer overruns and memory leaks were fixed along with minor bugs in the edit and tree widgets. Support for the KDE crash handler was added, the behavior of sockets under Linux was improved, a lot of Doxygen-generated API documentation was added, and the code was reorganised into a Unix library style directory layout. Cursor support was added to the Linux port and all of the widgets were moved into their own files.

This release cleans up some of the headers, class
implementations, and code. It adds a skinning library interface
with a default skin and a multi-column menu layout. The
library initialization code is now much faster. Some bugs were
fixed in the network code, as were some focus appearance
issues. Drawing text into bitmaps of a different bit depth to
the screen was fixed. More classes are binary compatible
between versions. Most controls were changed to cache the
layout and glyph substitution of text, yielding better
performance.
