[Flightgear-devel] plib update: gui themes pink input fields, PUSTRING_MAX

2005-11-11 Thread Melchior FRANZ
Those using the alternative dark GUI theme may want to update plib/cvs.
All packagers should IMHO do that in any case. This fixes two problems:

- The maximum length of entries in the property viewer was changed
  from 80 to 256. The old value affected a few longer entries, like
  the METAR string.

- The combobox and selectbox input field color can be changed, which
  makes them Yeukky Yellow[TM] in the alternative gui style, rather
  than Yeukky Pink.

Not in yesterday's update, but another reason to update, especially
for creators of binary 0.9.9 packages. This was added after the last
stable plib release 0.8.4:

- bitmap fonts (alternative gui style) don't disappear if their
  reference point is moved out of the view (x  0). 

There have no problems been reported for plib cvs/head.

This is not the only reason why it makes sense to have a new PLIB
release. FreeBSD portability fixes for example were ignored for the
1.8.4 and, as Steve Baker wrote a day after the release:

 Once we've gotten the thing to the point where it's basically releasable,
 doing a new version is a 10 minute job - and version numbers are a very
 cheap commodity.

Who's going to push him to a 1.8.5 release !?  ;-)

Cheers,
Martin.
