Pull requests merged
====================

A total of 29 pull requests were merged for this release.

Deprecated classes and functions
--------------------------------

* :pr:`2390`: Removed deprecations up to `v0.13.0`
   - Removed ``get_graph``, ``get_implicit_curve``, ``get_derivative_graph``, ``get_line_graph`` and ``get_parametric_curve`` in favour of their ``plot`` variants
   - Removed ``FullScreenFadeRectangle`` and ``PictureInPictureFrame``
   - Removed ``path_arc`` parameter from :class:`~.SpinInFromNothing`
   - Removed ``set_submobjects`` method from ``opengl_mobject.py``

New features
------------

* :pr:`2341`: Update :class:`~.Text` to use new ``ManimPango`` color setting
   * :class:`~.Text` class now uses color setting introduced in ``ManimPango 0.4.0`` for color and gradient.

* :pr:`2397`: Added ``label_constructor`` parameter for :class:`~.NumberLine`
   Allows changing the class that will be used to construct :class:`~.Axes` and :class:`~.NumberLine` labels by default. Makes it possible to easily use :class:`~.Text` for labels if needed.

Enhancements
------------

* :pr:`2383`: Made :meth:`.Surface.set_fill_by_value` support gradients along different axes


* :pr:`2388`: Added ``about_point`` keyword argument to :class:`~.ApplyMatrix`


* :pr:`2395`: Add documentation for paths functions


* :pr:`2372`: Improved :class:`~.DashedVMobject`
   :class:`~.DashedVMobject` used to create stretched and uneven dashes on most plotted curves. Now the dash lengths are equalized. An option is reserved to use the old method.
   New keyword argument: ``dash_offset``. This parameter shifts the starting point.

Fixed bugs
----------

* :pr:`2409`: Fixed performance degradation by trimming empty curves from paths when calling :meth:`.VMobject.align_points`


* :pr:`2392`: Fixed ``ZeroDivisionError`` in :mod:`~.mobject.three_dimensions`


* :pr:`2362`: Fixed phi updater in :meth:`.ThreeDScene.begin_3dillusion_camera_rotation`


Documentation-related changes
-----------------------------

* :pr:`2415`: Removed instructions on using and installing Docker in README


* :pr:`2414`: Made improvements to the :doc:`/guides/configuration` tutorial


* :pr:`2423`: Changed recommendation to ``mactex-no-gui`` from ``mactex`` for macOS install


* :pr:`2407`: Clarified docstrings of :meth:`.Mobject.animate`, :meth:`.Mobject.set` and :class:`~.Variable`


* :pr:`2352`: Added Crowdin badge


* :pr:`2371`: Added ``dvips`` to list of required LaTeX packages on Linux


* :pr:`2403`: Improved docstring of :class:`~.ApplyMethod` and removed propagated ``__init__`` docstring


* :pr:`2391`: Fixed typo in parameter name in documentation of :class:`~.NumberLine`


* :pr:`2368`: Added note in Internationalization


Code quality improvements and similar refactors
-----------------------------------------------

* :pr:`2408`: Removed various return annotations that were stifling type inference


* :pr:`2424`: Removed ``strings.py``


* :pr:`1972`: Added support for MyPy


* :pr:`2410`: Fixed Flake8


* :pr:`2401`: Fixed type annotations in :mod:`.mobject.three_dimensions`


* :pr:`2405`: Removed some unused OpenGL files


* :pr:`2399`: Fixed type annotations in :mod:`~.mobject.table`


* :pr:`2385`: Made comments in quickstart tutorial more precise


* :pr:`2377`: Fixed type hint for an argument of :class:`~.MoveAlongPath`
