2 * Scrolled windows (GtkList?) get cought in an endless reallocation loop
3 under certain (rare) circumstances.
5 * Widget redrawing when the window resizes sometimes messes up.
6 GtkLabels sometimes redraw without clearing up the underlying background on
9 * delay dnd settings to take effect once a widget is realized, this is
10 to avoid force realizations. i think this goes along with owens dnd
13 The way DND data types are set in GtkWidget really needs to be fixed.
14 This is pretty high on my priority list, and I'll get to it as soon as
15 the column list widget is done. The correct way dnd data needs to be set
16 is to have a additional keyed data type with GtkWidget, which is applied to
17 the widget's window upon realize.
18 There also needs to be a way to set dnd-data on widget windows which are
19 not the main window (for widgets that create more than one window).
21 DnD seems to work for me, but yes, there needs to be some sort of
22 gtk_widget layer that makes it easier... Also, adding support for drop
25 This one is reproducabel for me:
29 start up preview color
30 drag works but not dropping
33 start up prewiev color
37 * Change bitfields to guints from enums, or vice versa?
39 * Expose events aren't being generated correctly for DND demo
42 * GScanner: it might be good to ues stdio and getch() instead of 1-character
43 reads. so one can take advantage of buffering. Currently each read() takes
46 * implement gtk_default_draw_oval
48 * Lists should scroll to center the recently selected item if it isn't
51 * enforce invariants on *_RESIZE* and *_REDRAW* flags.
53 * asure that child widgets are really get gtk_widget_destroy()ed in their
54 parents destroy handler, and not just unparented or somesuch.
57 allocate GtkTooltipsData from memchunks
58 look into incorporation of outdated/gtk-dairiki-971208-[01].patch.gz
60 * Make widget attributes configurable after the widget is created (timj).
62 * Change gtk_widget_propagate_default_style() mechanism to
63 void gtk_rc_string_export (const gchar *rc_additions,
64 gboolean override_rc_styles);
66 * Should release grab before activating menu item (and remove
69 * Make all widget attributes configurable after the widget is created (timj).
71 * Widgets dervied from GtkButton need to be able to override
72 GtkButtonClass.paint. e.g. redrawing of GtkToggleButton with CAN_DEFAULT
73 is messed up otheriwse. This does in fact not only apply to (toggle)buttons,
74 we should introduce a common paint member for the GtkWidgetClass.
76 * Radio buttons need to display CAN/HAS_DEFAULT correctly.
78 * GtkCList improvements. (Jay Painter)
80 * Seperate GtkObject and signaling system from Gdk dependancies?
82 * move *_input_add (wrappers for select(2)) mechanism into glib.
84 * Make sure a widget added to a list is a list item and a widget added
85 to a menu is a menu item, etc. GTK_BASIC was a first attempt at this,
86 but it fails with subsequent container_add()s. maybe have another
87 GTK_PARENT_BASIC (similar to GTK_PARENT_SENSITIVE) flag, to prevent
88 tree iterations upon every container addition.
90 * gdk_expose_compress: ala-Xt, this would really help for opaque moves and
93 * Entry should have a password mode (and it should show stars
96 * Entry should allow set_usize to work better, and should compute
97 a different width when a maximum length is used.
99 * More dialogs: Print, GtkFontSelector, maybe others...
101 * Multiple document interface (MDI)?
103 * Support another widget style? Should be possible using GtkStyle's, but
104 there may be some work needed to remove any style dependencies in widget
105 code. Maybe GtkStyle's should have 'draw_push_button', 'draw_check_button',
106 etc, functions to draw the various widgets.
107 This will be covered by upcoming themability, raster is working on it.
109 * make the gtk_main callbacks consistent in their add/remove behaviour.
111 * More work on Documentation
113 * Check return values on all calls to XIC[Get/Set]Values
115 * Rewrite the interface to the i18n stuff so GTK widgets don't need to
116 retrieve X values, and so they don't have to know the value of the
117 XNxxx character constants.
119 * The "-geometry" option should be supported
121 - Having gdk_init() parse the geometry option. (putting it into
122 GDK means you can use XParseGeometry() without wrapping it)
124 - Add a call gdk_get_geometry() that retrieves the results
125 in a form like that returned by XParseGeometry()
127 - The application then can modify the results (as would gemvt)
128 then call a routine gtk_window_set_geometry() on whatever
129 it considers to be its main window.
131 - Then in some manner GtkWindow takes that into account when
132 setting its hints. (Probably it uses the size and position
133 as the current uposition and usize, and modulates that
134 be the equivalents of the X flags
136 XValue, YValue, WidthValue, HeightValue, XNegative, or YNegative
138 ( You'd have to extend gdk_window_set_hints to accept the
139 window gravity option to get it right. )
141 ? Allow moving the separator for paned widgets by dragging
142 it directly instead of using the handle.
144 ? Mark public use of gtk_tree_remove_item as deprecated - it should be used
146 gtk_container_remove (GTK_CONTAINER(tree), widget);
148 * Standardize that all strings should be passed as gchar *, not
149 guchar *. But what about non-string data? (gdk_property_change,
150 gtk_selection_data_set) X makes these sort of things guchar...
152 * Check into XAddConnectionWatch - is this needed for XIM?
154 * Places where a _full variant is needed:
156 gtk_clist_set_row_data
159 gtk_toolbar_prepend_element
160 gtk_toolbar_insert_element
161 gtk_widget_dnd_data_set (should be guchar * with a copy?
162 shouldn't be there at all...)
163 ??? GtkDrawingarea.draw_data
165 * gtk_rc_add_[name/class]_style are broken for bg pixmaps, because
166 styles are broken for bg pixmaps, and RC styles only hack around
169 * Try to rationally deal with someone else deleting one of our
170 windows??? This would mean keeping track of our window heirarchy
171 ourselves, for one thing, and will never be safe, because of
174 * --g-fatal-warnings flag that does
175 g_set_warning_handler ((GWarningHandler)g_error);
177 * If a window spontaneously resizes itself N times before any
178 ConfigureNotify events are received, then due to the interaction
179 of the ConfigureNotify compression code in GDK and the resize
180 count used for the window, the window will be size_allocated
181 the next N-1 times it is moved.
183 Fix: Only send GDK_EVENT_CONFIGURE when the window is resized,
184 create a new event type for toplevel motion. (GDK_EVENT_REPOSITION?)
185 and eliminate the resize count in GtkWindow.
187 * Generic ScrolledWindow interface, which provide automatic scrollbar
188 capability to Viewport, Text, and CList widgets.
190 GTK_POLICY_NEVER for scrolled windows.
192 * Consider caching more state in GdkWindowPrivate. Currently,
193 every widget realization involves a XGetGeometry and a
194 XGetWindowAttributes. And every GdkWindow destruction
195 involves a XQueryTree.
197 * Scrolled windows need to be smarter about when they size-request/allocate
198 their children. In particular, we should not be queuing the resizes
199 on the toplevel window, but on the Viewport.
201 * Should all the default handlers really return FALSE? This can
202 cause confusing presses to be sent to containers that actually
203 want to get events on themselves.
205 * Fix block_resize, disable_resize.
207 * Buttons's should derive from Bin's. (GTK 2.0 change, breaks
214 - Really big font (150 pt), plus lots of editing caused segfault
218 - Unify the key binding support in some fashion between the
219 Entry and Text widget widgets (???)
221 - Figure out a way not to recompute the geometry on insertions/deletions
222 which are large, but not a significant fraction of the
223 entire text. (e.g., compute the changes as when the widget
224 is not frozen, but without the actual scrolling)
226 - Prune the line start cache. But since it is only 68 bytes
227 per line, and it is a lot faster when lines are in the cache,
228 it may be better not to, at least for now.
230 - Show the non-editable state by changing colors. (Use the
231 style entries for insensitive?)
233 - Multibyte support for the Text widget.
235 - Unicode support to do the multi-byte right.
237 - Support an .inputrc. (The readline one doesn't really work,
238 unless it is extended because it can't represent X keysyms,
239 just terminal type input)
243 - Word wrap, instead of line folding. (Should the continuation
244 characters be shown?)
246 - Horizontal scrolling
248 - Disable pasting compound text
250 - When showing background pixmap (not editable) actually set
251 the background pixmap as the windows bg pixmap, to improve
252 appearance on exposes. But this would require using another
253 window to get the origins.
255 - In word wrap mode, break:
257 aaaaaaaaaaa bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb
261 aaaaaaaaaaa bbbbbbbbbbb|
262 bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb|
268 bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb|
269 bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb |
273 - API's : gtk_text_clear, gtk_text_delete_lines (gint start, gint end),
274 gtk_text_append/prepend, gtk_text_insert_at (gint row, gint column),
275 some function to get the row/column from the x/y-coordinates of a
276 mouse click, some function to get the word/line under the mouse pointer
