GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 121851
Tab widgets of GtkNotebook don't receive mouse events
Last modified: 2011-02-04 16:12:10 UTC
From the description of the docking functionality I've read, it doesn't seem to be working in the Win32 port of GIMP. Expected results: 1. Click on something, be able to drag it and have a window dock. Actual results: 1. Click everywhere, try dragging everywhere, try all mouse buttons and combinations of shift, alt and ctrl, but no docking. Can't be too much more specific because I haven't tried a working version of the docking, sorry.
We simply put GtkEventBoxes into the tabs so we can catch clicks and show tooltips for the tabs. Changing summary accordingly and reassigning to GTK+
Tried with gtk+ 2.2.3 and gtk+ 2.2.4 Win32, both from Tor's download site: http://www.gimp.org/~tml/gimp/win32/downloads.html
Is there any simpler test program than the GIMP that could be used to debug this problem?
I'm just guessing based on the summary, but could this be related to http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=118575
Correct guess! The suggested fix for #118575 also makes the drag-and- drop and docking behaviour of GIMP 1.3.20's dialogs work beautifully. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 118575 ***
Awesome! Great catch.
