Release notes for version 3.5 {#news}


[TOC]


New features {#features}


Unlimited mouse buttons {#unlimited_mouse_buttons}


GLFW now has an input mode which allows an unlimited number of mouse buttons to
be reported by the mouse buttton callback, rather than just the associated
mouse button tokens. This allows using mouse buttons with
values over 8. For compatibility with older versions, the
@ref GLFW_UNLIMITED_MOUSE_BUTTONS input mode needs to be set to make use of
this.


EGLConfig native access function {#eglconfig}


GLFW now provides the @ref glfwGetEGLConfig native access function for querying
the EGLConfig of a window that has a EGLSurface.


GLXFBConfig native access function {#glxfbconfig}


GLFW now provides the @ref glfwGetGLXFBConfig native access function for
querying the GLXFBConfig of a window that has a GLXWindow.

actively maintained and available on many platforms.
