GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 540829
Overridden defaults for properties not documented
Last modified: 2018-02-10 04:40:19 UTC
The default values for xalign, yalign, xpad and ypad in GtkCellRenderer is 0.5, 0.5, 0 and 0 respectively. GtkCellRendererText overrides the defaults and sets them to 0.0, 0.5, 2, 2. That is not documented anywhere. Maybe gtk-doc is to blame because it cannot handle overridden defaults?
gtk-doc would document the correct values if we reinstalled the properties with the changed defaults. gobject currently makes that too hard, since you have to duplicate everything (nick, blurb, etc), not just the default value.

We're moving to gitlab! As part of this move, we are closing bugs that haven't seen activity in more than 5 years. If this issue is still imporant to you and still relevant with GTK+ 3.22 or master, please consider creating a gitlab issue for it.
