  Release History
 =================
 
+v2.2.0 (2021-11-30)
+===================
+
+Description
+-----------
+This is a feature and bugfix release to extend the customizability of
+typhos suites and launcher scrips, to fix various issues in control
+layer and enum handling, and to do some necessary CI maintenance.
+
+Enhancements / What's new
+-------------------------
+* Add suite options for layouts, display types, scrollbars, and
+  starting window size. These are all also available as CLI arguments,
+  with the intention of augmenting typhos suite launcher scripts.
+  Here are some examples:
+
+  * ``--layout grid --cols 3``: lays out the device displays in a 3-column
+    grid
+  * ``--layout flow``: lays out the device displays in a grid that adjusts
+    dynamically as the window is resized.
+  * ``--display-type embed``: starts all device displays in their embedded
+    state
+  * ``--size 1000,1000``: sets a starting size of 1000 width, 1000 height for
+    the suite window.
+
+  See `#450 <https://github.com/pcdshub/typhos/pull/450>`_
+
+Fixes
+-----
+* Respect ophyd signal enum_strs and metadata updates. Previously, these were
+  ignored, but these can update during the lifetime of a screen and should be
+  used. (`#459 <https://github.com/pcdshub/typhos/pull/459>`_)
+* Identify signals that use non-EPICS control layers and handle them
+  appropriately. Previously, these would be misidentified as EPICS signals
+  and handled using the ca:// PyDM plugin, which was not correct.
+  (`#463 <https://github.com/pcdshub/typhos/pull/463>`_)
+* Fix an issue where get_native_methods could fail. This was not observed
+  in the field, but it broke the test suite.
+  (`#464 <https://github.com/pcdshub/typhos/pull/464>`_)
