## 2.4.4
### Fixed
* Rendering of bitmap fonts with Freetype >= 2.11
(https://codeberg.org/dnkl/fcft/issues/29).
## 2.4.3
### Fixed
* Bitmap/aliased font glyphs being mirrored on big-endian
architectures.
* Color font glyphs having wrong colors on big-endian architectures.
* Crash when destroying a font that failed to load (typically happens
when there are no fonts available at all).
## 2.4.2
### Fixed
* Rare crash when one thread was doing a glyph cache lookup, while
another was resizing the cache.
## 2.4.1
### Changed
* Log messages are now printed to stderr instead of stdout.
* `fcft_grapheme_rasterize()` now sets a minimum grapheme column count
of 2 when the cluster ends with an Emoji variant selector (codepoint
0xFE0F).
### Fixed
* Compilation error when fallback definition for `FCFT_EXPORT` was used
in `meson.build`.
### Contributors
* [emersion](https://codeberg.org/emersion)
* [craigbarnes](https://codeberg.org/craigbarnes)
## 2.4.0
### Added
* Example program. Very simple bare bones Wayland program that renders
a user provided string with user configurable fonts and colors. No
proper error checking etc. To build, configure meson with
`-Dexamples=true`.
* `fcft_log_init()`. This function enables, and configures logging in fcft.
* `fcft_text_run_rasterize()`: new API that uses HarfBuzz to shape a
text run (i.e. a whole string). Note that HarfBuzz is (still) an
**optional** dependency, see
[README](README.md#user-content-building).
* `fcft_text_run_destroy()`: new API that frees a rasterized text-run.
* `FCFT_CAPABILITY_TEXT_RUN_SHAPING` added to `fcft_capabilities()`.
* `antialias` and `subpixel` members to `struct fcft_font`.
### Changed
* fcft logging must now be enabled explicitly (see `fcft_log_init()`).
* Internal logging functions are no longer exported by the shared library.
* The pixel size passed from FontConfig to FreeType is now rounded
instead of truncated (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/456).
### Fixed
* Internal logging functions have been renamed, from generic `log_*`
names to fcft specific `fcft_log_` names.
* Apply pixel-size fixup to glyphs advance width/height, but **only**
if we estimated the fixup ourselves (otherwise the advance
width/height is already scaled).
## 2.3.3
### Fixed
* Cloned fonts not being properly freed in library destructor.
## 2.3.2
### Added
* Limited support for _"fontfeatures_" . fcft is still not a layout
engine, but with this we can support e.g. _stylistic sets_
(HarfBuzz-enabled builds only).
### Deprecated
* `tags` argument in `fcft_grapheme_rasterize()`. It is now being
ignored, and will be removed in a future release.
### Fixed
* Hang in library destructor when system has no fonts installed
(https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/174).
### Contributors
* [birger](https://codeberg.org/birger)
## 2.3.1
### Fixed
* `fcft_grapheme_rasterize()` now makes use of the optional
`tags`. These were previously ignored.
* Compilation error when text shaping was disabled.
## 2.3.0
### Added
* `fcft_set_scaling_filter()`: new API that lets the calling
application configure the filter to use when downscaling bitmap
fonts (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/fcft/issues/9).
* `fcft_grapheme_rasterize()`: new API that uses HarfBuzz to shape a
grapheme cluster. Note that HarfBuzz is an **optional** dependency,
see [README](README.md#user-content-building).
### Changed
* Increased timeout in tests, from 4s (the default), to 60s
(https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/120).
## 2.2.7
### Changed
* Use lanczos3 filtering when downscaling bitmap fonts. This improves
the quality of e.g. color emoji fonts.
### Fixed
* Compilation with `-pedantic`
## 2.2.6
### Fixed
* Set LCD filter. This fixes **severe** color fringes when FreeType
has been built with `FT_CONFIG_OPTION_SUBPIXEL_RENDERING` (i.e. the
old ClearType-style subpixel rendering, instead of the newer Harmony
LCD rendering).
## 2.2.5
### Changed
* `fcft_glyph_rasterize()`: improved performance in threaded
applications by guarding the glyph cache with an _rwlock_ instead of
a _mutex_.
### Fixed
* fcft now checks for memory allocation failures.
* Compilation errors in 32-bit builds.
## 2.2.4
### Added
* Unicode license file, for `UnicodeData.txt`
## 2.2.3
### Added
* Missing [LICENSE](LICENSE) file
* [LICENSE](LICENSE), [README.md](README.md) and
[CHANGELOG.md](CHANGELOG.md) are now installed to
`${datadir}/doc/fcft`.
### Fixed
* Assertion in debug builds when resizing the glyph cache
## 2.2.2
### Fixed
* `fcft_kerning()` was not threadsafe
* Rare crash in `fcft_glyph_rasterize()` caused by a race between a
successful glyph cache lookup and a glyph cache resize.
## 2.2.1
### Changed
* Color bitmap glyphs with a pixel-size fixup factor other than 1.0
are now pre-scaled. Previously, fcft would only set a pixman scale
transform on the glyph, causing actual scaling to occur **every**
time the glyph was blended. This improves the performance when
rendering color emojis.
## 2.2.0
### Changed
* Internal representation of the primary and fallback fonts.
* Do not load a fallback font if it does not contain the requested glyph.
### Deprecated
* `fcft_size_adjust()`
## 2.1.3
### Fixed
* Advance width and height of scaled bitmap fonts.
## 2.1.2
### Changed
* Glyph cache now resizes dynamically. This fixes a performance
problem when loading **a lot** of glyphs, as we ended up scanning
very long lists when looking up a glyph in the cache.
## 2.1.1
### Changed
* Prefer user-provided `charset`. This can be used to e.g. limit a
fallback font's usage to a custom Unicode point range.
### Fixed
* LCD RGB/BGR modes were reversed.
## 2.1.0
### Added
* When looking for a glyph in the fallback fonts, don't discard
(destroy/unload) the fonts that did not contain the glyph. This
improves performance massively when loading lots of glyphs that does
not exist in the primary font, or in the first fallback font(s).
* Synthetic bold and italics (FontConfig's _embolden_ and _matrix_
properties).
* `fcft_precompose()` - combines a base- and a combining wide
character into a single pre-composed character.
### Changed
* `fcft_from_name()` and `fcft_size_adjust()` no longer calls
`setlocale()` to set a suitable locale for `FcParseName()`, as this
was not thread safe. The caller is responsible for ensuring
`LC_NUMERICAL` is set to a locale that correctly recognizes _x.y_
decimal values.
### Fixed
* `fcft_from_name()` was not thread safe
* `fcft_clone()` was not thread safe
* `fcft_size_adjust()` was not thread safe
* `fcft_destroy` was not thread safe
## 2.0.0
### Changed
* API: `font_` prefix changed to `fcft_`.
* API: renamed `struct font` to `struct fcft_font`.
* API: renamed `struct glyph` to `struct fcft_glyph`.
* API: internal members of `struct fcft_glyph` removed.
* API: renamed `enum subpixel_order` to `enum fcft_subpixel`, and
`ORDER` was removed from the enum values.
* API: renamed `fcft_glyph.x_advance` to `fcft_glyph.advance.x`, and
added `fcft_glyph.advance.y`
* API: renamed `fcft_font.max_x_advance` to `fcft_font.max_advance.x`
and added `fcft_font.max_advance.y`.
* API: renamed `fcft_font.space_x_advance` to
`fcft_font.space_advance.x` and added `fcft_font.space_advance.y`.
* API: renamed `fcft_glyph_for_wc()` to `fcft_glyph_rasterize()`.
* Require meson >= 0.54.
* Use `meson.override_dependency()`.
### Fixed
* `fcft_kerning()` did not scale the returned kerning distances with
the font's pixel size fixup multiplier.
## 1.1.7
### Fixed
* LCD RGB/BGR modes were reversed
