sizes of the sizer items to be in the same proportion as the items
proportions to return to the old behaviour.
+- Interpretation of font height in pixels parameter has changed in wxFont
+ ctor and SetPixelSize() in wxMSW: it is now used as character height and not
+ the total cell height. If you previously used negative height to explicitly
+ request character height matching, you may now change your code to use
+ positive value (passing negative height still works but is undocumented and
+ deprecated). If you used positive height before you should retest your code
+ to check if the changes correspond to your expectations. And if you do need
+ the old behaviour please contact us at wx-dev to let us know about it!
+

your code you need to override DoFreeze/DoThaw() instead now.

accordingly, to 2.
+- wxLOCALE_CONV_ENCODING flag has no effect now, catalogs are converted
+ regardless of whether the flag was specified or not. This only affects
+ legacy ANSI builds.

Changes in behaviour which may result in compilation errors

use Find() instead.
+- wxLongLongFmtSpec is now a normal and not wide string so you will need to
+ change expressions of the form wxT("%") wxLongLongFmtSpec wxT("x") to
+ just "%" wxLongLongFmtSpec "x", i.e. simply remove wxT() from the strings you
+ concatenate with it.
+
Deprecated methods and their replacements
-----------------------------------------
- wxValidator::SetBellOnError() incorrectly interpreted its argument (it
disabled the bell when it was true) and was replaced by SuppressBellOnError()
with more expected semantics.
+- wxPORTRAIT and wxLANDSCAPE are now elements of wxPrintOrientation enum and
+ wxPrintData::SetOrientation(int) takes wxPrintOrientation and not int.

to use the vendor name in the paths returned by wxStandardPaths.
+- wxDataViewModel::GetAttr() is now const, as it should have been from the very
+ beginning. You will need to change it to be const in your derived model
+ class too if you override it.
