Description Christian Persch 2006-03-29 15:40:09 UTC 
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #335945 +++

about dialogue doesn't disappear when clicking the Close button, when using gtk+ HEAD (see gtk+ bug 333360).

This applies to the panel's own about dialogue, and to the included applets' about dialogues.

Comment 2 Christian Kirbach 2006-04-04 14:53:45 UTC 
seems to work o.k. with GTK+ 2.8.15
Comment 3 Christian Persch 2006-04-04 15:15:22 UTC 
That's because it's a problem with gtk+ HEAD only :)

(Trying to move a few more bugs out of the UNCONFIRMED state, and if this has several duplicates it should probably be confirmed arleady)

Could you clarify why this cloned report is needed?  It seems like GTK needs to be fixed or is the change in GTK merely exposing a previously unnoticed flaw?
Comment 6 Christian Persch 2006-04-14 18:32:52 UTC 
This is not a gtk bug; I just referenced the gtk bug where this was *changed*, necessitating apps to adapt. (Cloning just makes mass-filing easier, you don't have to fill in all the text again.)
Comment 7 Vincent Untz 2006-04-15 08:29:03 UTC 
Hrm. One issue here is that it's not possible to change the screen of the about dialog with gtk_show_about_dialog(). Any idea on how to do this?
Comment 8 Christian Persch 2006-04-15 18:54:18 UTC 
If parent != NULL, the about dialogue should show on the same screen as the parent (I haven't checked it actually does; if it doesn't that'd be a gtk+ bug IMO). If parent == NULL, gtk+ uses only one global about dialogue... I guess a RFE for gtk_show_about_dialog_on_screen would be needed?
Comment 9 Christian Persch 2006-12-24 21:42:29 UTC 
This seems to have been fixed ?

Btw, I filed bug 385950 for gtk_show_about_dialog_on_screen.
Comment 10 Christian Persch 2009-04-08 13:59:40 UTC 
This is fixed.
