- BREAKING CHANGE: the Windows Bridge for iOS now requires the Windows RS1 SDK (10.0.14393) to work
- Impact: WinObjC build.sln and sample apps included in the SDK will fail to build in case you’re using a previous version of the Windows SDK
- Solution: Install the latest RS1 SDK (10.0.14393) per the instructions here
- Note: this requirement is for developers only and does not impact users who download your applications from the Windows store. The minimum Windows version required to run your applications remains 10586
- KNOWN ISSUE: [x86] CTCatalog - Font Functions - crashes when attempting to change Select nameKey #1865
- We recently shifted Islandwood over to not using queued CATransactions for its UIElement property and hierarchy management; instead we perform the property/hierarchy changes synchronously on the backing Xaml elements as they’re issued by the app
- This change was required to fix several other bugs, and it should also lead to a much more simplified Islandwood implementation layer. It’s worked pretty well so far, but it’s uncovered an interesting issue with ScrollViewer’s ScrollViewerViewChangedEvent”, tracked by #1865
- If you’re running into issues similar to #1865, or if you notice quirky behavior around your animations or UX interaction, please file a GitHub issue to let us know. You can also try to temporarily switch back to legacy batched CATransactions by setting UIApplication.displayMode.useLegacyBatchedCATransactions = YES, but that support will be removed in the future
- New CoreText APIs: CTFontDrawGlyphs, CTFontManagerRegisterFontsForURL, CTFontManagerRegisterGraphicsFont
- Font files in app bundles are now supported so apps including font files can use these fonts on Windows
- Fixed performance issues with CoreText (#1617, #1500)
- Fixed 69 bugs since our last release published on 11/30. Check the full list here
