This appendix describes what's new in Photon for the following releases:
- PgPHookRegister()
- Load a Photon hook module, such as one that rotates the display.
- PxRotateImage()
- Rotate an image.
- PgLayerCaps_t
- The following format types are new:
- Pg_LAYER_FORMAT_YUV_AYUV
- Pg_LAYER_FORMAT_YUV_NV12
- The new format_flags member specifies the packing or
byte order of the format member;
it can be 0, or one of the following:
- Pg_LAYER_FORMAT_PKLE — 16-bit little endian packed
- Pg_LAYER_FORMAT_PKBE — 16-bit big endian packed
- Pg_LAYER_FORMAT_PACK — 16-bit, packing is indeterminate
- Pg_LAYER_FORMAT_BO_BGRA — 32-bit, BGRA byte-order
- Pg_LAYER_FORMAT_BO_ARGB — 32-bit, ARGB byte-order
(Ref# 69322, 69235)
- PgShmemCleanup()
- You can't call Photon functions from signal handlers; we've corrected
the example.
- PhCancelDrag()
- This function returns a non-negative number (≥ 0), not a positive
number (> 0), to indicate success.
- PhWindowEvent_t()
- The Ph_WM_EVSTATE_FORCE event state was added.
- PgSetColorModel() and PgGetColorModel()
- A link was added to a list of supported color models.
- PtHelpTopicTree() and PtHelpUrl()
- A correction was made to the URL in the example.
- PdCreateOffscreenContext()
- Pg_OSC_GF_SID - flag added to the function.
- PhCharacterCursorDescription_t
- Ph_CURSOR_NONE - Hides the cursor.
- PgDrawTextArea*()
- The len parameter specifies the number of bytes
required to store the string.
- PgGetScalerCapabilities()
- You must set vcaps->size to
sizeof(PgScalerCaps_t) before calling this function.
- PgSetFont()
- If the M1 or M2 global alpha values are set, and an anti-aliased font type is supplied
to the function, the resulting text will be blended according to the global alpha values.
- PgSetVideoMode()
- PgSetVideoMode() returns an error if more than one layer is currently active
via the Pg layer family of calls. By default, io-graphics utilizes one layer.
- PgVideoChannel_t()
- Documented as an internal-only type.
- PtInitDnd()
- This function accepts a drag event as well as a pointer event.

An API for handling font names in an organized, portable way has been added.
Previously, we recommended you address a font by the
“stem name” supplied by the font manager (e.g. helv12).
This approach is no longer recommended, since stem names aren't
guaranteed to be static. This is especially true when new
font technology is added to the Photon font subsystem.
The new API provides an interface that eliminates the need to recode in
the future. It includes:
These new functions support language and message databases:
New:
These functions have been renamed; you should use the new name, although
applications that use the old name will still work:
Deprecated:
- ApBitmap_t
- ApDeleteWidget() — you can use
ApDeleteDBWidget()
instead, but note that it deletes the given widget and its children.
- ApFreeBitmapRes()
- ApGetBitmapRes()
The prototype has changed for:
New:
New:
New:
Deprecated:
- PfQueryFont() — replaced by
PfQueryFontInfo(),
which returns a valid stem name when using a scalable font.
The old function is still in the library, so applications that use it
should still work.
New:
Other new features:
- PgSetDrawMode()

New:
Other changes:
- PhEvent_t

events have a new subtype, Ph_EV_RELEASE_OUTBOUND.
- PhInitDrag()
- The prototype has changed; the ptrpos and cursor
arguments have been added.
- PhMakeTransBitmap()

Photon. The meaning of the trans_color argument depends on
the image type.

These functions have been renamed; you should use the new name, although
applications that use the old name will still work:
Other changes:
- PtCreateWidget()
- The parent argument has changed.
It can now be a pointer to the parent widget or one of:
- Pt_DEFAULT_PARENT — use the default parent, which
is the most recently created container.
- Pt_NO_PARENT
- PtFileSelection()
- This function can select directories as well as files.
Enable directory selection with the Pt_FSDIALOG_SELECT_DIRS
flag.
Existing directories can be selected with btn1 (the Open button).
PtFileSelection() can create and delete directories and delete
files.
You can create new directories at any time by pressing the New button.
When the PtFileSel widget has focus, two new hotkeys
are activated: the Insert key creates a new directory
just like the New Directory button, and the Delete key
removes the currently selected item.

- user_data

makes the image transparent, using the detected transparent color and
the image's chroma scheme. There's no need to set the transparent
member of this structure — it's deprecated.
- PxTranslateUnknown()
- Control how unknown encodings are handled
You no longer need to include <photon/PxHelp.h> when
using the help functions.
New:

PhImage_t
structure and calling
PgDrawPhImagemx().

- Instead of using this function, we recommend using a
PhImage_t
structure and calling
PgDrawPhImagemx().
- PhMakeTransBitmap()
