Example of a better button (in pygtk)

This is my idea of a new button.

It is in pygtk, because I don't speak c, but it should be easily translateable. For the evolution toolbar it of cource has to be RELIEF_NONE, but it still works very well I think.
Comment 2 André Klapper 2008-02-07 09:41:25 UTC
can you provide a screenshot?
it's probably not easily translatable because evolution's toolbar uses bonobo.
Comment 3 Thomas D Ahle 2008-02-07 11:02:31 UTC
This is probably a duplicate of 338289.
I don't know anything about bonobo.
Comment 4 Matthew Barnes 2008-10-22 19:18:11 UTC
Folding this into bug #552010.

Once BonoboUI is dropped, we can use a standard GtkMenuToolButton, which I'm already doing on my "kill-bonobo" branch.  See [1] for more details.
