Project News

Version 0.1.2 of sixtyFPS was released last week! Please check out the release blog post for more information.

UI Library

• New Features
  • Allow the sixtyfps-compiler and sixtyfps-viewer to read from stdin ( fe015a )

    By specifying - as a path

  • Add image-scaling property to Images to control how they are scaled ( a03a27 )

    Thanks Ryan Van Gilder @ryban!

  • A Multi-line TextEdit widget was added.
• Changes to the .60 language
  • Parser: make the parentheses around if element optional ( 8d15bc )

    closes #466

  • Allow global singletons to have default callback handlers ( 4d3f08 )

    It's already working, we just need to remove the error handling :-)

    Fixes #467

• Fixes
  • Fix stretch of children of the GroupBox widget ( ec7d9a )

    Apply a vertical stretch in the fluent and ugly style, to match the native style.

    Fixes #487

  • Interpreter: fix comparison of enums ( 4aeb9b )

    We need to normalize native enum to use dashes

• Make it possible to disable the GL backend in the CMake build ( 1fd8c7 )
  • The default backend no more selects a default :-). Instead the Rust API crate, Rust interpreter API crate and the CMake project define the same features and defaults.
  • The C++ crate depends on the interpreter without its defaults.
  • In CMake the X11 and Wayland features become dependent options, that are only show in the CMake configure UI if the GL backend is enabled. This way a GL-disabled build won't also pass --features x11.
• Janitor work
  • Bump usvg & resvg (c142cd)
  • Bump glow & femtovg (9a9475)
  • Bump fontdb (8b5e29)
  • Add RISC-V to the Embedded CI/Test builds (d5bf27, afdb37)

    ghcr.io/sixtyfpsui/sixtyfps/riscv64gc-unknown-linux-gnu:latest is a Ubuntu-20.04 container that can be used for application development with cross and provides all the dependencies needed to build SixtyFPS with X11 and Wayland backend.
