+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1636963 +++
We already picked up the security fix that drove the 2.10.4 release, but here's the list of changes for 2.10.3.
CHANGES BETWEEN 2.10.2 and 2.10.3
I. IMPORTANT CHANGES
-
New flag `FT_OUTLINE_OVERLAP'. If set, make the smooth rasterizer
do 4x4 oversampling to mitigate artifacts in pixels partially
covered by overlapping contours. Note that this at least
quadruples the rendering time.If a glyph in a TrueType font has the
OVERLAP_SIMPLE' orOVERLAP_COMPOUND' bit set, FreeType automatically selects this
rendering mode.
II. MISCELLANEOUS
-
Using the arcane method of including FreeType header files with
macros like `FT_FREETYPE_H' is no longer mandatory (but retained
as an optional feature for backward compatibility). -
Support for building the library with Meson. Building the demo
programs with Meson will follow in a forthcoming release. -
Minor improvements to the B/W rasterizer.
-
Auto-hinter support for Medefaidrin script.
-
Fix various memory leaks (mainly for CFF) and other issues that
might cause crashes in rare circumstances. -
Jam support has been removed.
-
In
ftview', custom LCD filter values are now normalized and balanced. Unorthodox filters are still available through the-L'
command line option. -
The GUI demo programs can now be resized.
-
Demo programs that accept command line option `-k' can now handle
function keys, too. The corresponding character codes start with
0xF1. As an example, the POSIX shell syntax (accepted by bash,
ksh, and zsh)-k $'\xF3q'
emulates the pressing of function key
F3' followed by keyq'.
