Upcoming Version

• 1.0.0 - First stable release!

  • Capture signal.WINCH, use it for window size detection

  • Remove/rework focus system

    • it really only exists for InputField, which doesn't need it anymore
    • Widget.selected_index should be used instead, or there should be deeper implementation

  • look into making mouse events callback-based (see winman)

    • add support for multiple events reporting at the same time

  • Rework Widget.click()

    • targets should be found using Widget.get_target()
    • target.click() can then be called directly
    • add Widget.hover(target: MouseTarget)

  • Rework width & height systems

    • instead of forced_width, there should be a combination of an overflow & a size policy
    • overflow/expand -> current no forced width behaviour
    • overflow/clip -> shorten lines to fit width

Future versions

• 2.0.0 - The stylish update!

  • Add color methods
    • gradient ([<@141], [<141], [>@141], get_gradient(including: int))
    • complement (get_complement(color: int))
  • Add support for newlines in break_line

  • make MarkupFormatter more dynamic:

    • there should be a way you can incorporate depth information into a code
    • this needs parser support however
    • e.g.: [@{30 + {depth} * 36}]this is a gradient of depth

  • add background styles

• unnamed (order irrelevant)

  • WindowManager tiling layout

  • maybe make MarkupFormatter serializable?

  • maybe clean up how Widget "enum" attributes are written
