GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 100751
Revise frame implementation instructions for GNOME 2.6
Last modified: 2020-12-04 18:19:00 UTC
The section "Technical Details for Proper Layout" should just be deleted. People should just use GtkFrame and hope that GtkFrame is fixed in future to comply with the HIG.
Created attachment 12897 [details] [review] hig_gtkframe.patch
The instructions are commented out. I'm leaving this open with the summary changed to "Revise..." instead of "Remove..."
Should this section be ignored now? It doesn't seem to match up with the diagram above it. For example, the "technical details" specify "Set the Spacing on the GtkHBox to 6," but the diagram shows a horizontal spacing of 12 between label and control.
The technical details section should be completely updated for GNOME 2.6, which will be able to use the indented GtkAlignment from GTK+ 2.4. I doubt that there will be any HIG release before then, so I wouldn't worry until then.
Retitling.
We removed the offending section several years ago :)
