Description Stefan Sauer (gstreamer, gtkdoc dev) 2005-08-11 17:17:30 UTC 
As the HIG suggest the document title should be used as the window title.

I currently face the situation of having docs for gstreamer version 0.8 and 0.9
installed and it would help to see the document title in the window title (or as
part of the window title). The document title is part of the .devhelp file
(title attribute of the book tag).

I committed a change now from bug #144452, that uses the html title as window
title. I'm not sure if that helps this case, probably not.
Comment 2 Stefan Sauer (gstreamer, gtkdoc dev) 2005-09-29 14:55:23 UTC 
Thanks a lot Richard. I'll have a look what gtkdoc puts in there and see if this
can be improved so that it reads:
'<Page title> : <Document title>'
'GtkWidget : Gtk+-2 Reference Manual'

ciao

While talking about gtk-doc additions, there is also
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=134336 which asks for the version of
the book. I guess it should be possible to use the version of the library somehow?
Comment 4 Richard Hult 2005-10-03 20:46:15 UTC 
Stefan, I think it's probably better to leave the title as it is and use the doc
name + html title for the window instead. Otherwise it's difficult to get just
the short title if we need it.

oh yes, thats much better!
Comment 6 Richard Hult 2005-10-05 17:39:49 UTC 
Fixed in CVS.
