Some minor improvements will still +be done, and minor requests may be accepted, so be quick. + +The most notable changes in this release from the previous one are: + + * Transients and queries in too small frames are "unsqueezed" out + of them, unless disabled with `ioncore.set{ unsqueeze = false }`. + + * Some changes in default `cfg_ion.lua`: instead of loading + various other files, just `cfg_default.lua` is loaded instead. + + * `mod_tiling.untile` (available in the context menu) may be used + to decompose tilings into floating frames. (This is the approximate + opposite of `mod_tiling.mkbottom` and the "new tiling" context menu + entry.) + + * Improved context menus. + + * Slightly improved defaults style, using the drawing engine's + added possibility of partial borders. + + * Various fixes and other improvements, in particular in relation + to focus code. + + +ion-3ds-20070203 +---------------- + + * There's been changes in padding/spacing usage in styles. Frames + now surround stuff inside borders not with `spacing` pixels, but + with `padding_pixels`. Spacing is only used to space things within + the borders (all the tabs and the client window from each other). + Consequently, custom styles may need to be updated to reflect this, + by increasing the padding, possibly also altering/removing colour + (to set it to background colour). + + * The use of drawing engine attributes has also changed, and strict + ordering of them in the styles is no longer necessary. Additionally, + much more attributes are supported, including the name of every + statusbar meter. + + * Xinerama support is gone. In addition to being problematic as such, + it had bit-rotted, and I will not waste time fixing it. + + * `ioncore.set` no longer supports the `default_ws_params` parameter + for configuring the default layout. It is replaced by + `ioncore.deflayout("default", { ... })`, which allows configuring + other layouts as well, known by `mod_query.query_workspace` (F9). + Some default layouts are configured in `cfg_layout.lua`. + + * It is now possible to automatically create new workspaces for + windows with the `new_group` winprop. + + ion-3ds-20061223 ----------------
