Agar

Hundreds of bugfixes and improvements were made to the Agar-Core and Agar-GUI libraries.

This is the first stable release of Agar. Several changes were made to the Agar-Core and Agar-GUI APIs, which are now frozen.

This release includes changes to the map system and graphic editor, and GUI fixes. Node attributes can now be set directly from the tile editor. Tiles are now automatically subdivided. Shared graphics were removed and saves now include graphics. Support for multiple map points of view was added and scrollbars were added to map views. Several improvements were made to map rendering. The map tool API was improved and unnecessary tools were removed. Selection of nodes, node elements, and mouse displacement were fixed. Issues with RCS updates were addressed. The "tile-based" rendering mode was removed.

Major UI optimizations have been made. Charset issues have been
addressed. Improvements have been made to the GL mode: the textbox
widget (and others) now render efficiently, widget clipping is now done
correctly, and screenshot support has been added. The hsvpal widget
has been optimized, and now allows graphical alpha selection and pixel
format binding. The menu now supports a toolbar and dynamic items.
The fspinbutton is now able to bind to integer values. Improvements
have been made to the sketch editor, related to selections, vertex
displacements, antialiased lines, line thickness, and textured polygons.
A new "hpane" widget has been added.

All code related to maps has been moved to a
separate library (libmap). The gfx interface
(which manages graphic surfaces) has been
restructured to allow for data such as origin
points, snapping modes, and OpenGL texture
mappings. Several improvements to sketch and
pixmap blending were made. A rotation transform
for sprites was implemented. Minor bug fixes were
made to widgets such as scrollbar and HSV palette.
