Changelog of @hackage/diagrams-cairo 0.5.0.1

0.5.0.1 : 9 March 2012

• Remove statement in package description that a development version of gtk2hs must be used with GHC 7.4; this is no longer true as of the 0.12.3 release of gtk2hs.

0.5: 9 March 2012

• New features

  • New Diagrams.Backend.Cairo.Text module by Michael Sloan, with functions for creating appropriately sized text objects by querying cairo for the size, and related supporting functions.

  • Basic support for animation, by generating frames sampled at regular intervals.

  • Proper vertical alignment of default text based on font parameters (Michael Sloan).

  • Requesting just a width or height now causes the other to be computed appropriately.

• API changes

  • Move "Diagrams.Backend.Cairo" to "Diagrams.Backend.Cairo.Internal" and export everything. "Diagrams.Backend.Cairo" now just re-exports selected functions from Internal. This allows anyone who wants access to the helper/utility functions to import Internal.

• Dependency/version changes

  • relax cmdargs upper bound
  • GHC 7.4.1 compatibility: update base, filepath, old-time upper bounds

  • #54: Generate warning for missing image files (Ian Ross).
