glyph-brush-draw-cache-0.1.2

• Optimise empty cache cache_queued calls by bundling texture data into a single upload.

glyph-brush-draw-cache-0.1.1

• Require ab_glyph 0.2.2.

glyph-brush-layout-0.2

• Rework crate switching from rusttype to ab_glyph.
  • Layout returns SectionGlyphs which contain section_index & string byte_index.
  • Drop support for Color which didn't affect layout & can now be associated to sections without built-in support.
  • Glyph bounding boxes are no longer used at all during layout. This means invisible glyphs, like ' ', are now generally included.

glyph-brush-draw-cache-0.1

• Port rusttype gpu cache to ab_glyph.
• Use exact texture rect position, adjusted for different sub-pixel matches.
• Use rayon for concurrent outline calculation & rasterization.
• Use crossbeam-channel for channelling.
• Implement local batch work stealing for rasterization tasks improving population performance by 1.1x.

glyph-brush-0.7

• OpenType (.otf) fonts are now supported in addition to .ttf fonts. They're just as fast as .ttf fonts too.
• Rework crate switching from rusttype to ab_glyph. ab_glyph is re-exported to glyph_brush::ab_glyph,
  rusttype types are gone, e.g. all usage of rusttype::Scale is replaced with ab_glyph::PxScale.
• New Section struct redesign replaces VariedSection & the old Section supporting generic extra data & builder syntax.

  // 0.7: Optional builder style, one API for simple & varied sections
  Section::default().add_text(Text::new("Hello").with_scale(25.0))

  // 0.6
  Section { text: "Hello", scale: Scale::uniform(25.0), ..<_>::default() }

• Section color & z are now part of an Extra struct which is the default extra type. This allows previous usage to continue but also downstream users to use different Extra data.
  This data is provided to the vertex generator function.
• To aid with refactoring from the previous version some equivalent versions of legacy structs are available
  legacy::{VariedSection, Section, SectionText}. So in some cases you can just slap legacy:: in front of the old
  code and fix some PxScale usages and away you go. I'll deprecate and eventually remove this module.

  // 0.7
  legacy::Section { text: "Hello", scale: PxScale::from(25.0), ..<_>::default() }

• pixel_bounds has been removed, use glyph_bounds instead. Pixel bound info is not available for OpenType glyphs without calculating outlines. I've found it's almost always better to use glyph_bounds instead anyway, if not please open an issue with your use case.
• Rename gpu_cache_* methods to draw_cache_*. Also note, overriding the default position_tolerance may be less necessary as the new
  draw cache features subpixel position error correction.

  // 0.7
  GlyphBrushBuilder::using_font(font).draw_cache_position_tolerance(0.1).build()

  // 0.6
  GlyphBrushBuilder::using_font(font).gpu_cache_position_tolerance(0.1).build()

• Rename cache_glyph_drawing to cache_redraws for clarity.
• New crate glyph_brush_draw_cache takes rusttype's gpu_cache module into the ab_glyph world and starts to improve upon it.
• New glyph_brush_layout now providers section_index & byte_index for all laid out glyphs. It no longer relies on any pixel bounding box info, which isn't fast to query with .otf fonts. This also means invisible glyphs, like ' ', are now generally included and hence will be returned by GlyphCruncher::glyphs.
• Add GlyphBrush::is_draw_cached which can be used to tell if a given queued & processed glyph is visible or not.
• It's faster. ~1.07-1.64x faster than 0.6 (particularly in the worst case full-layout performance).
  Rasterization is also ~2-7x faster using ab_glyph_rasterizer.

gfx-glyph-0.17

• OpenType (.otf) fonts are now supported in addition to .ttf fonts.
• Rework crate switching from rusttype to ab_glyph. See glyph_brush changelog.

glyph-brush-layout-0.1.9

• Fix consistency of section bounds by removing usage of glyph pixel bounds during word layout, instead always relying on advance width.
• Fix possible floating point errors when using section bounds that exactly bound the section.

glyph-brush-0.6.3

• Fix section color & alpha frame to frame changes to be incorrectly optimised as alpha only changes.

glyph-brush-0.6.1

• Require glyph_brush_layout 0.1.8 to help ensure rusttype dependency convergence.

glyph-brush-layout-0.1.8

• Update rusttype -> 0.8. Compatible with rusttype 0.6.5 & 0.7.9.
