Tue Jul 21 12:42:01 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com> * gdk/gdk.h gdk/gdkfont.c: Added gdk_text/string_extents() - too calculate all the metrics at once of a string, including things which weren't calculated before. * gtk/Makefile.am gtk/gtk.h gtk/gtktearoffmenu.[ch]: New MenuItem type, that when put as the first thing in a menu, makes the menu tearoff. Currently drawn as a dashed line. * gtk/gtkmenuitem.h gtk/gtkcheckmenuitem.c: Added a flag "hide_on_activate" to the MenuItem class structure to allow check and radio buttons to be changed with <Space> without hiding the menu. * gtk/gtkaccellabel.[ch]: Added new capabilities to set a underline_group and underline_mods for the label - accelerators added in the underline group matching underline_mods will be displayed as an underline character. This doesn't work - Save As needs to be underlined as Save _As. * gtk/gtkitemfactory.c: - Create a AccelGroup for each MenuShell we create. - If an '&' appears before a character 'c' in the path, then make 'c' an accelerator in the menu's accel group, and if the menuitem is menubar <alt>C an accelerator in the itemfactory's accel group. * gtk/gtklabel.[ch]: Add support for a pattern arg - which is a string. If an '_' appears in this string, the corresponding position in the label is underlined. Add gtk_label_parse_uline() convenience function which takes a string with embedded underlines, sets the pattern and label, and returns the accelerator keyval. * gtk/gtkmenu.[ch]: Make menus no longer a toplevel widget. Instead, they create a GtkWindow and add themselves to that. (When torn off, another new feature, they create another GtkWindow to hold the torn off menu) New function gtk_menu_set_tearoff_state() * gtk/gtkenums.h gtk/gtkmenushell.[ch] gtk/gtkenums.h: Added action signals for keyboard navigation of menus. * gtk/gtkmenushell.c: Key press handler which activates bindings for navigation, and accelerators, for handling underline accelerators. Exported functions to select and activate menu items in a menushell. * gtk/testgtk.c: Added a new "Item Factory" test which tests GtkItemFactory and the new keyboard navigation of menus.
General Information =================== This is GTK+ version 1.1.1. GTK+, which stands for the Gimp ToolKit, is a library for creating graphical user interfaces for the X Window System. It is designed to be small, efficient, and flexible. GTK+ is written in C with a very object-oriented approach. The official ftp site is: ftp://ftp.gtk.org/pub/gtk The official web site is: http://www.gtk.org/ A mailing list is located at: gtk-list@redhat.com To subscribe: mail -s subscribe gtk-list-request@redhat.com < /dev/null (Send mail to gtk-list-request@redhat.com with the subject "subscribe") Installation ============ See the file 'INSTALL' How to report bugs ================== To report a bug, send mail either to gtk-list, as mentioned above, or to gtk-bugs@gtk.org. If you send mail to gtk-list, you must be subscribed yourself. In the mail include: * The version of GTK * Information about your system. For instance: - What operating system and version - What version of X - For Linux, what version of the C library And anything else you think is relevant. * How to reproduce the bug. If you can reproduce it with the testgtk program that is built in the gtk/ subdirectory, that will be most convenient. Otherwise, please include a short test program that exhibits the behavior. As a last resort, you can also provide a pointer to a larger piece of software that can be downloaded. (Bugs that can be reproduced within the GIMP are almost as good as bugs that can be reproduced in testgtk. If you are reporting a bug found with the GIMP, please include the version number of the GIMP you are using) * If the bug was a crash, the exact text that was printed out when the crash occured. * Further information such as stack traces may be useful, but is not necessary. If you do send a stack trace, and the error is an X error, it will be more useful if the stacktrace is produced running the test program with the --sync command line option. Patches ======= Patches can be uploaded to the incoming/ directory on ftp.gtk.org. Please follow the instructions there, and include your name and email address in the README file. If the patch fixes a bug, it is usually a good idea to include all the information described in "How to Report Bugs".
