GtkWrapBox for gtk itself, not gimp?
Last modified: 2010-09-02 00:00:35 UTC
Package: gtk+ Severity: enhancement Version: 2.0.1 Synopsis: GtkWrapBox for gtk itself, not gimp? Bugzilla-Product: gtk+ Bugzilla-Component: gtk Description: I've just found gimp-1.3 against gtk2 uses native GtkWrapBox widget not a part of gtk. I wonder why gtk didn't import those into gtk itself? in many case (at least, I) need flexible width container which support wrapping children. and I think GtkWrapBox is good method. I remember gimp is mother of gtk. I think gtk can inherit more goods from mother :) ------- Bug moved to this database by unknown@bugzilla.gnome.org 2002-04-04 19:04 ------- Reassigning to the default owner of the component, gtk-bugs@gtk.org.
This is an outstanding item from the now-gone TODO file. Owen points out that they get a _lot_ more useful when you do have height-for-width geometry management, though, and the lack of height-for-width is one reason they weren't added for 2.0. Look in beast and gimp for implementations of these.
(Might be possible for 2.4 ... partly depends on whether height-for-width happens for 2.4.)
Too Old, I think I can close It. You can reopen it if you find this feature will be intersting.
Please don't close GTK+ bugs.
