= gtk team meeting: 2011-05-10 =
• GtkAssistant design refresh: 648136
- committed, comments still welcome
- required relaxing child properties preconditions, to allow usage
with Glade
- needs theme love, to make it pretty
- ACTION: cosimoc and garnacho to look at theme bits
• GtkLockButton: 62457 (committed, comments still welcome)
- straightforward widget
- albeit a bit specialized
- needs tailored a11y implementation
- needs a demo (possibly w/o Polkit dependency) in gtk-demo
• GeditOverlay: 646841
- UI solution shared among apps: gedit, epiphany, nautilus
- requires input from the design team wrt usage guidelines
- relative positioning using h/v align on GtkWidget
- use child properties
- clean up and document
- requires some more rounds of review
• GtkFontSelection: 407885
- branch from aruiz
- design driven by aday, jimmac and hbons
- implementation is mostly complete
- old API is a problem
- direct access to internal widgets
- option 1: deprecate return value, and potentially break users
- option 2: remove API, and break everything
- option 3: add a new GtkFontChooser* and deprecate GtkFontSelection*
- option 3 wins
- ACTION: aruiz will create new widgets
- reduce the API footprint, but add new functionality (e.g. per-app filter)
• GProperty: 648526
- discussed mainly in bugzilla
- missing at the time of the meeting:
- docs + examples
- cosmetic fixes
- GVariant type
- locking
- needs review from different GObject/GParamSpec users
- will need some janitorial effort to port gtk+ to it and pspec arrays
- branch in git.gnome.org: g-property
• new GTK CSS parser
- rewritten without GScanner
- better conformance to CSS3 spec
- better error reporting
- needs discussion
- branch in git.gnome.org: parser
‣ 3.x deprecations:
• Deprecate v/h variants: 541009
• Deprecate GtkTable / GtkBox and use GtkGrid instead: 648449
• Deprecate GdkColor: 636695
• Deprecate GtkMisc: 645780
• Deprecate GtkAlignment: 645781
- general consensus
- jjardon is working on them
- rgba-text branch merged, so GdkColor is about to be done for
- style properties and style context properties
- box → grid is going to be a big job
- and there are potential issues with nested grids
- all deprecations require migration guides
• gtk website
- Martyn will migrate it shortly
• focus rectangles: 649567
- mclasen has a patch for hiding them when not in keynav
- designer driven, reduces visual clutter
- requires some test drive
next meeting: 2011-05-24
