Description John Stowers 2013-08-12 10:15:37 UTC 
I would like to be able to define a border around a GtkListBox using css

border-width
border-style 
etc

I guess adding gtk_render_frame in the draw method would be sufficient.

This is to implement the gnome-tweak-tool mockups as seen here

(see extensions and startup applications section of the mockups)

<alex> I don't necessarily disagree. I think all widgets should (be able to) render full css boxes (i.e. bg + border)
<alex> not sure if its right for the proposed design though
<alex> you generally want the frame to be outside the scrolledview, not inside it

(And its only a matter of time before your "small" lists grow and may need to scroll)
Comment 3 Matthias Clasen 2016-01-23 06:44:19 UTC 
it does now
