Tix 4.0 b7
Released on Nov 11, 1995
Subject: [Announce] Tix version 4.0b7 is available
I am pleased to announce the availability of Tix version 4.0b7.
Requirement
TK 4.0 + TCL 7.4 or later. Tix 4.0b7 does not work with previous
versions of TK and TCL. Versions of Tix that work with previous
versions of TK and TCL can be found in the FTP directories listed
below.
Getting The Tix Package
You can obtain Tix from my ftp site:
ftp://ftp.cis.upenn.edu/pub/ioi/Tix4.0b7.tar.gz
I have also uploaded the file to the official Tcl site, so in a few
days it will also be available at:
ftp://ftp.aud.alcatel.com/tcl/extensions/Tix4.0b7.tar.gz
ftp://ftp.aud.alcatel.com/tcl/extensions/Tix4.0b7.README
What's New
This is essentially a maintainence release and most of the bugs
that have been reported since June are now fixed.
-
Major overhaul on the Balloon widget. Now it should go away
when you move the mouse cursor out of a client widget or when
you press the mouse button inside a client widget.
-
OptionMenu supports deletion of menu entries.
-
Major improvement of the installation process. Now there is a
graphical program (src/setup) to use as a front-end to the GNU
configure script. Also, the configure script is more
intelligent in locating the TK, TCL and XPM library and header
files. Therefore, this version of Tix should be less hassle to
install than previous versions.
-
Misbehaviors of the FontSet mechanism on monochrome displays
have been fixed.
-
Miscellaneous bugs fixed for FileSelectBox, ExFileSelectBox,
ComboBox, Control, etc. Please refer to the file
docs/Changes.html in the distribution for more details of the
bug fixes.
