Pyface 7.1.0 introduces a few new features and fixes to deprecation warnings.
There are also internal cleanups to Qt signal connection logic that should be invisible to users.

Highlights of this release

  • A new pyface.data_view subpackage has been introduced to support visualization of hierarchical and non-hierarchical tabular data. See Pyface DataViews section of the user manual for an introduction. Additional examples are also added to the source distribution. Please note that as of this release the API is provisional.

  • A new pyface.color.Color class and a corresponding pyface.ui_traits.PyfaceColor trait type have been
    introduced to support representing colors via a toolkit independent API. See Trait Types section of the user manual for further details.
