Hello,
Im still learning GTK, et al. in my spare time, so please be patient
with me if Ive totally missed something. ;)
I am playing around with GTK themes, and I have some UI ideas that I
would like to implement -- specifically visual feedback to the user
based on "mouse-over" events. I can use the PRELIGHT state in RC files
to accomplish what I want for buttons, menu items, panes, ...; but I
would like to extend this behaviour to all click-able widgets
(specifically GtkNotebook). I have no problem writing my own theme
engine to accomplish this, but it is my understanding that the relevant
widgets must be changes to recognize "mouse-over" events at the GTK
level first.
Please comment on this request. If implementation is trivial, point me
where, and I will do it myself. If non-trivial I would need some
direction first.
Cheers,
Ryan
Well, I personally like the idea, but I have no say in anything in GTK.
WinXP has prelight on notebook tabs, so to make something look more
like WinXP this change would be required. I think that everything you
would need is in gtk+/gtk/gtknotebook.c. I would guess that it won't be
completely trivial, but nothing worthwhile is :-). That said, the GTK
code is generally very well written and so easy to understand.
