0.7: 9 August 2013

• New features

  • New renderCairo function for more convenient use of the cairo backend.
  • Lots of Haddock documentation improvements.

• New instances

  • Show instance for Options Cairo R2.

0.6: 11 December 2012

• New features

  • New --list option for multiMain to list all available diagrams

  • Major documentation improvements

  • New modules:

    • Diagrams.Backend.Cairo.Ptr, for rendering directly to buffers in memory

    • Diagrams.Backend.Cairo.List, for rendering to a list of lists of pixels.

• API changes

  • Removal of StyleParam from Diagrams.Backend.Cairo.Text, change functions in that module to accept Style R2. Usage can be fixed by applying these style functions to mempty.

  • GTK rendering has been split out into a new package, diagrams-gtk.

  • The Diagrams.Backend.Cairo.Gtk module is now Diagrams.Backend.Gtk in the diagrams-gtk package.

  • The CairoOptions record has a new boolean cairoBypassAdjust option; when set, the backend should bypass calling adjustDia2D.

  • The GTK output type is gone.

  • There is a new RenderOnly output type, for when you don't care about the IO action but only want the cairo Render action.

• Dependency/version changes

  • Upper bounds relaxed to allow base-4.6, unix-2.6, cmdargs-0.10, split-0.2.*, mtl-2.1

  • Add a dependency on time, and conditional compilation to use either ClockTime or UTCTime depending on the version of the directory package

  • Add dependency on colour

  • Lower bound on cairo raised to 0.12.4

• Bug fixes

  • Fixed looped compile mode, which was repeatedly trying to compile when the code contained errors, instead of trying once and then waiting for a change.

  • Fix a bug where default attributes were not being set when using the "bypass" mode used by the gtk backend. (#16)

0.5.0.2 : 13 May 2012

• Allow building under mtl 2.1.*

0.5.0.1 : 9 March 2012

• Remove statement in package description that a development version of gtk2hs must be used with GHC 7.4; this is no longer true as of the 0.12.3 release of gtk2hs.

0.5: 9 March 2012

• New features

  • New Diagrams.Backend.Cairo.Text module by Michael Sloan, with functions for creating appropriately sized text objects by querying cairo for the size, and related supporting functions.
  • Basic support for animation with animMain function, by generating frames sampled at regular intervals.
  • Proper vertical alignment of default text based on font parameters (Michael Sloan).
  • Requesting just a width or height now causes the other to be computed appropriately.

• API changes

  • Move Diagrams.Backend.Cairo to Diagrams.Backend.Cairo.Internal and export everything. Diagrams.Backend.Cairo now just re-exports selected functions from Internal. This allows anyone who wants access to the helper/utility functions to import Internal.

• Dependency/version changes

  • relax cmdargs upper bound
  • GHC 7.4.1 compatibility: update base, filepath, and old-time upper bounds

• Bug fixes

  • #54: Generate warning for missing image files (Ian Ross).

0.4: 22 October 2011

• New features:

  • Support for drawing directly to Gtk widgets
  • Support for path fill rule attribute

• New/improved examples

• Improved documentation

• Bug fixes:

  • Warning for unsupported image types (#41)

0.3: 18 June 2011

• Some new/improved examples

• New features:

  • simple text support
  • simple support for external PNG images

0.2: 3 June 2011

• add Typeable and other instances for Cairo type

• generalize Result type to (IO (), Render ()), so programs that don't want to generate a file but just want a Render operation (e.g. to use to paint a gtk window) can use the second component.

• add support for opacity attribute and path clipping

0.1.2: 18 May 2011

• link to new website

0.1.1: 18 May 2011

• fix tic-tac-toe example

0.1: 17 May 2011
