Hello,

The new wxGlade release is published now. It's a new major release with a lot of visible and invisible changes - especially the full support of wxWidgets 3 and wxPython 3.

Not supported is Python3.

The standalone edition is available. It has two disadvantages:
 - it's built on Windows XP and may not work correctly on newer 
   Windows versions
 - it's opens a command line windows always

General: 
  - Remove support for old Python import style generally
  - Add missing styles for wxNotebook (Thanks to Udi Fuchs)
  - Use Python logging facility instead of print statements
  - Rework quoting and escaping of special character sequences
  - Rework internal path handling
  - Write always an error log file
  - Improve widget import to be able to import widgets from ZIP files
  - Change configuration default to remember the position and geometry
    of the three main windows. This change effects fresh installations only.
  - adapt GUI to run with wxPython 2.8 till 3.0
  - remove support for wxPython 2.6
  - Disable Lisp for wx 3.0
  - Improve the internal error dialog
  - Unify the code generation of widget specific code
    This change causes some minor changes in the generated code.
  - Add Lisp and Perl support for wxDatePickerCtrl
  - Add support for wxSplitterWindow.SetMinimumPaneSize()

Generated Code:
 - Use SetToolTip() instead of SetToolTipString() for wxPython 3 und wxPerl 3
 - Use configurable indents instead of hard coded tabs in wxFrame code
   for Perl

Bugs:
  - Fix escape sequences in Unicode strings were escaped twice Perl and
    Python
  - Wrong Lisp statement in wxHyperlinkCtrl and wxFrame
  - Prevent code generation from a template file by command line invocation
  - Fix bug in generation of valid hash keys for Perl
  - Fix various issues during transformation from XRC into wxGlade 
  - Fix wrong conditions to generate application start code (sf bug #161)
  - Don't convert first char of a XRC extra property to upper case (sf
    bug #163)
  - Fix incomplete Unicode escaping

Deprecation
 - In place modifications for generated source files will be removed in one
   of the next releases

Documentation:
  - Adapt and extend the documentation

API (for custom widgets):
  - Simplify signature of quote_str(), use quote_path() to quote / escape
    file names or paths
