We just released egui 0.33.0!
Highlights:
- `egui::Plugin` a improved way to create and access egui plugins
- [kitdiff](https://github.com/rerun-io/kitdiff), a viewer for
egui_kittest image snapshots (and a general image diff tool)
- better kerning (check the diff on
[kitdiff](https://rerun-io.github.io/kitdiff/?url=https://github.com/emilk/egui/pull/7431))

egui is an easy-to-use immediate mode GUI for Rust that runs on both web
and native.
Try it now: <https://www.egui.rs/>
egui development is sponsored by [Rerun](https://www.rerun.io/), a
startup building an SDK for visualizing streams of multimodal data.
Highlights from this release:
- `egui::Plugin` a improved way to create and access egui plugins
- [kitdiff](https://github.com/rerun-io/kitdiff), a viewer for
egui_kittest image snapshots (and a general image diff tool)
- better kerning
As a step towards using [parley](https://github.com/linebender/parley)
for font rendering, @valadaptive has refactored the font loading and
rendering code. A result of this (next to the font rendering code being
much nicer now) is improved kerning.
Notice how the c moved away from the k:

We've added a new trait-based plugin api, meant to replace
`Context::on_begin_pass` and `Context::on_end_pass`.
This makes it a lot easier to handle state in your plugins. Instead of
having to write to egui memory it can live right on your plugin struct.
The trait based api also makes easier to add new hooks that plugins can
use. In addition to `on_begin_pass` and `on_end_pass`, the `Plugin`
trait now has a `input_hook` and `output_hook` which you can use to
inspect / modify the `RawInput` / `FullOutput`.
At rerun we have a ton of snapshots. Some PRs will change most of them
(e.g. [the](https://github.com/rerun-io/rerun/pull/11253/files)
[one](https://rerun-io.github.io/kitdiff/?url=https://github.com/rerun-io/rerun/pull/11253/files)
that updated egui and introduced the kerning improvements, ~500
snapshots changed!).
If you really want to look at every changed snapshot it better be as
efficient as possible, and the experience on github, fiddeling with the
sliders, is kind of frustrating.
In order to fix this, we've made
[kitdiff](https://rerun-io.github.io/kitdiff/).
You can use it locally via
- `kitdiff files .` will search for .new.png and .diff.png files
- `kitdiff git` will compare the current files to the default branch
(main/master)
Or in the browser via
- going to https://rerun-io.github.io/kitdiff/ and pasting a PR or
github artifact url
- linking to kitdiff via e.g. a github workflow
`https://rerun-io.github.io/kitdiff/?url=<link_to_pr_or_artefact>`
To install kitdiff run `cargo install --git
https://github.com/rerun-io/kitdiff`
Here is a video showing the kerning changes in kitdiff ([try it
yourself](https://rerun-io.github.io/kitdiff/?url=https://github.com/rerun-io/rerun/pull/11253/files)):

- `egui::Mutex` now has a timeout as a simple deadlock detection
- If you use a `egui::Mutex` in some place where it's held for longer
than a single frame, you should switch to the std mutex or parking_lot
instead (egui mutexes are wrappers around parking lot)
- `screen_rect` is deprecated
- In order to support safe areas, egui now has `viewport_rect` and
`content_rect`.
- Update all usages of `screen_rect` to `content_rect`, unless you are
sure that you want to draw outside the `safe area` (which would mean
your Ui may be covered by notches, system ui, etc.)
* Part of https://github.com/emilk/egui/issues/4019
As part of the work on adding a custom `Border` to everything, I want to
make sure that the size of `RectShape`, `Frame` and the future `Border`
is kept small (for performance reasons).
This PR changes the storage of the corner radius of rectangles from four
`f32` (one for each corner) into four `u8`. This mean the corner radius
can only be an integer in the range 0-255 (in ui points). This should be
enough for most people.
If you want to manipulate rounding using `f32`, there is a new
`Roundingf` to fill that niche.
Since ui's initial sound is a "y", it should be "a ui", not "an ui".
Replaced case-sensitively using regex `([aA])n ([uU][iI])` replacement
`$1 $2`
* [x] I have followed the instructions in the PR template
This is a refactor on the way to add support for opening context menus
on touch screens via press-and-hold.
This PR changes what `InputState::button_clicked` does (it was ver badly
named before), and also changes `Response::clicked_by` to no longer be
true if clicking with keyboard (i.e. a widget has keyboard focus and the
user presses Space or Enter).
Hello. I would like to maintain egui_glium. I have already updated my
fork to the newest version of glium. You can find it at:
https://github.com/fayalalebrun/egui_glium
Let me know about next steps regarding access to crates.io.

Please read the "Making a PR" section of
[`CONTRIBUTING.md`](https://github.com/emilk/egui/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md)
before opening a Pull Request!
* Keep your PR:s small and focused.
* If applicable, add a screenshot or gif.
* If it is a non-trivial addition, consider adding a demo for it to
`egui_demo_lib`, or a new example.
* Do NOT open PR:s from your `master` branch, as that makes it hard for
maintainers to add commits to your PR.
* Remember to run `cargo fmt` and `cargo cranky`.
* Open the PR as a draft until you have self-reviewed it and run
`./scripts/check.sh`.
* When you have addressed a PR comment, mark it as resolved.
Please be patient! I will review you PR, but my time is limited!
