We are releasing version 0.15 of the FLNX Fast Light Toolkit. There was
one really big issue fixed: the way FLNX handled the X,Y coordinates for
parent and child windows and widgets. We have changed the coordinate
system to be much like FLTK 1.0.7. Hence, windows and nested windows
work a lot better. In addition, you are able to actually use widgets
that are nested deeply inside multiple FL_WINDOWs.
I also found an issue in Microwindows which basically will not redraw
the pictures on buttons. This is a Microwindows issue and should be
fixed in its next release. A patch has been submitted to the project.
Finally, for the most excited part of this release. Fluid now works
correctly under Microwindows! Yes, now you too can develop your
applications on your 180x180 monochrome PDA screen top. Now if some one
will get toolchains on there, we will be set.
