GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 164807
Widget Render to Pixbuf
Last modified: 2005-02-02 02:39:21 UTC
This would be a nice to have feature, if I could ask the widget to render itself to a pixbuf (even if it is unmanaged, un-parented, etc...). The usage I would have to such a feature is Auto-Doc for forms. If I have a form designer that can include explanations for each field, than it can export a document that includes the explanation and the widget- screenshot. This can be done much easily if such an option (widget render to pixbuf) exist.
You can look at the hoops through which doc/tools/doc-shooter has to jump to do this.
