GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 441891
Source group look
Last modified: 2008-10-01 17:58:36 UTC
Seeing the new source grouping (http://www.flickr.com/photos/doctau/517877192/), those have a "heavy" feeling and don't look very smooth. In contrast, Gossip and Empathy use another widget for the same thing, which looks better.
Created attachment 88959 [details] Comparison screenshot This shows the widgets used by Pidgin (same as Rhythmbox) and Gossip/Empathy. The separator line in the Empathy case still separates the groups, but doesn't disrupt the visual flow as much as the big bar in Rhythmbox does. The expander widget in Empathy inherits from GtkCellRenderer, the bar is just a separator (which is only shown if the expander is uncollapsed)
This would probably be a good thing to have directly in GTK+.
I totally agree.
Should be fixed in trunk. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 553984 ***
