   1 wxWindows Release Notes
   2 -----------------------
   3
   4 2.1.12
   5 ======
   6
   7 - New wxDateTime class to replace millenium-uncompliant wxTime
   8   and wxDate classes.
   9
  10 - New wxCalendarCtrl class and sample.
  11
  12 - New wxCmdLineParser class.
  13
  14 - wxHTML printing and other improvements.
  15
  16 - Life sample added.
  17
  18 - TIFF support added to wxImage.
  19
  20 2.1.11
  21 ======
  22
  23 - wxMenu no longer takes a wxFunction argument: either use
  24   event handlers in the menu's host window or set WXWIN_COMPATIBILITY
  25   to 1 in setup.h, and recompile.
  26
  27 - wxMotif still lags behind other ports but is in much better
  28   shape than the 2.0.1 distribution.
  29
  30 - Clipboard/drag and drop is still not implemented in wxMotif.
  31
  32 - The new wxGrid implementation is in beta, but the original
  33   implementation can be restored by setting wxUSE_NEW_GRID
  34   to 0 (in wxMSW) or passing --disable-newgrid to configure
  35   (wxGTK/wxMSW). Pass --enable-newgrid to configure to enable
  36   the new implementation.
  37
  38 - wxHTML is partially working in wxMotif. The About sample
  39   works, but the others exhibit refresh problems. So light
  40   use of wxHTML is recommended on wxMotif.
  41
  42 - The wxHTML helpview application crashes on exit if
  43   using VC++ 6 in release mode and loading a large amount of
  44   HTML (such as the wxWindows manual generated using Tex2RTF).
  45   This may be a compiler problem and will be investigated
  46   for 2.1.12.
  47
  48 - wxHTML printing has spacing problems under Windows, and may not
  49   work fully under Unix. Hopefully this will be resolved for 2.1.12.
  50
  51 - wxStaticBox under Windows obscures controls placed within it:
  52   this will be fixed in 2.1.12.
  53
  54 - wxStaticBitmap under Windows doesn't respect the transparency mask.
