Description Matthias Clasen 2004-02-26 22:20:46 UTC
of the popup window, which is a regression against gtkcombo....
Comment 1 Matthias Clasen 2004-02-29 01:34:36 UTC
Positioning is now more or less done; the list popup is pushed
horizontally into the screen.

Comment 3 Matthias Clasen 2004-03-01 19:09:49 UTC
Whats still missing in terms of positioning is to move the list popup
above the entry/cellview if there is too little space below.
Comment 4 Matthias Clasen 2004-03-02 18:54:58 UTC
Positioning is done now.
Comment 5 Philip Langdale 2004-05-30 01:13:53 UTC
Is anything happening with this one? It makes the appear-as-list mode completely
useless when there's more items than will fit between the widget and the
top/bottom of the screen. Combine that with the hopelessness of the menu mode
when there's more items than will fit on the screen at once, and you're left
with a crippled widget that is a huge usability regression from GtkCombo.

Mass changing gtk+ bugs with target milestone of 2.4.2 to target 2.4.4, as
Matthias said he was trying to do himself on IRC and was asking for help with. 
If you see this message, it means I was successful at fixing the borken-ness in
bugzilla :)  Sorry for the spam; just query on this message and delete all
emails you get with this message, since there will probably be a lot.
