This is rarely what you want, so lets turn it off
by default.
Update the one place in our demos where we want to
draw a value, add support for this to gtk-builder-tool,
add a test and mention this change in the migration
guide.
A GskGLShader is an abstraction of a GLSL fragment shader that
can produce pixel values given inputs:
* N (currently max 4) textures
* Current arguments for the shader uniform
Uniform types are: float,(u)int,bool,vec234)
There is also a builder for the uniform arguments which are
passed around as immutable GBytes in the built form.
A GskGLShaderNode is a render node that renders a GskGLShader inside a
specified rectangular bounds. It renders its child nodes as textures
and passes those as texture arguments to the shader. You also pass it
a uniform arguments object.
With the exception of gtk_buildable_get_id(), those are only used
to construct objects from XML descriptions, which is functionality
internal to GTK.
The API is therefore unlikely to be missed, and keeping it internal
means they can no longer unintentionally shadow object methods in
bindings with less namespacing; for example it's currently ambiguous
whether `infoBar.add_child()` refers to gtk_info_bar_add_child() or
gtk_buildable_add_child().
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/-/issues/3191
GtkBuildable's get_name()/set_name() methods may shadow
GtkWidget's methods. Avoid that by renaming the API to
get_buildable_id()/set_buildable_id(), which also reflects
the name of the XML attribute the API refers to.

Drop gtk_column_view_column_new_with_factory and
just make gtk_column_view_column_new accept a
nullable factory. This follows what we've been
doing elsewhere.
Update all callers.
This API is kinda stuck in the GdkEvent days, we now negotiate ownership
of the input sequence via GtkGestures. Remove it as it reflects a way to
work that was not exactly accurate and it will turn plainly wrong soon.
There is nothing really special about this code, its just a helper for
uploading pixel data to opengl, and we're not really in the business
of doing opengl-specific helper functions.
Most of the surface api we have in the Wayland backend
only makes sense for toplevels, so reshuffle things to
take a GdkToplevel instead of a GdkSurface.
Update all callers and the docs.
We want to include the gtk-doc subproject in release
tarballs, using --include-subprojects, but that only
works if we've actually built the subproject. And
enabling gtk-doc for dist builds is problematic -
it tends to break meson dist.
So declare the gtk-doc dependency independent of
-Dgtk_doc, and use --force-fallback-for for it.
Now that both arguments to the _new_with_factory() constructors
are nullable, there's no good reason to keep a separate _new()
around. Just make gtk_list_view_new() and gtk_grid_view_new()
take both a model and a factory.
Use feature options for things that are optional features,
update the docs.
Visible changes here is that the 'print-backends' option
got renamed to 'print' to go better with 'media', and the
'tracker3' option got renamed to 'tracker'.
For options that have been changed into features, the
syntax now is -Dfeature=enabled or -Dfeature=disabled
or -Dfeature=auto.
Currently there is no way to alter the offset of the popup when positioning
with GdkPopupLayout. This makes using the popup difficult for scenarios
like completion windows where you may need to offset the window by a given
amount for aligning text.
gtk_popover_set_offset() allows setting these values and are analagous to
the function of the same name for GdkPopupLayout.
GTK will not up front know how to correctly calculate a size, since it
will not be able to reliably predict the constraints that may exist
where it will be mapped.
Thus, to handle this, calculate the size of the toplevel by having GDK
emitting a signal called 'compute-size' that will contain information
needed for computing a toplevel window size.
This signal may be emitted at any time, e.g. during
gdk_toplevel_present(), or spontaneously if constraints change.
This also drops the max size from the toplevel layout, while moving the
min size from the toplevel layout struct to the struct passed via the
signal,
This needs changes to a test case where we make sure we process
GDK_CONFIGURE etc, which means we also needs to show the window and
process all pending events in the test-focus-chain test case.
gtk-doc assumes Docbook4, with <ulink> and so on.
Without this, all the links in markdown are converted
to <link xlink:href=...> and then lost in the docbook->html
conversion.
Set the accessible role for GtkLinkButton to button.
We don't use the 'link' role since ARIA says "if it
behaves like a button, use 'button'".
Update docs and add a test.
This changes should not be neccessary, since
GtkLinkButton derives from GtkButton, see #2965.
It's not a portable API, so remove it. The corresponding backend
specific functions are still available, if they were implemented, e.g.
gdk_macos_monitor_get_workarea() and gdk_x11_monitor_get_workarea().
pandoc insists on using the xlink namespace for hrefs,
and the namespace setup doesn't carry over xi:includes.
My first fix was to tell pandoc to generate standalone
docbook documents, which makes it insert the xlink
namespace. But it also makes it wrap all sections and
chapters in articles, and that messes up our toc structure.
So, patch things up differently by stripping the xlink:
from hrefs via regex.
Yay for XML!
Make GdkEvents hold a single GdkDevice. This device is closer to
the logical device conceptually, although it must be sufficient for
device checks (i.e. GdkInputSource), which makes it similar to the
physical devices.
Make the logical devices have a more accurate GdkInputSource where
needed, and conflate the event devices altogether.
Besides the implicit x/y assumptions, devices don't have axes. Those
are actually provided by the GdkDeviceTool driving the device, and
different tools may have different axes.
It does not make sense to offer this API that can change beneath
someone's feet, we now have gdk_device_tool_get_axes() which is static
to the tool.
Use the label accessible role for GtkLabel. ARIA has some
ominous wording about it going way, but while we have it,
GtkLabel is the obvious candidate for carrying it.
Update the documentation and add a test.
In some cases we explicitly want to unset an accessible attribute; for
instance, an accessible property is gated on a widget property, and if
the widget property gets unset, the accessible property should be reset.
A dropdown without a model is useless, so accept a model
and expression in the constructor. Allow them to be NULL,
but consume them if given. This makes chained constructors
convenient without breaking language bindings.
Drop gtk_drop_down_set_from_strings() and instead add
gtk_drop_down_new_from_strings().
Update all users.
To build a better world sometimes means having to tear the old one down.
-- Alexander Pierce, "Captain America: The Winter Soldier"
ATK served us well for nearly 20 years, but the world has changed, and
GTK has changed with it. Now ATK is mostly a hindrance towards improving
the accessibility stack:
- it maps to a very specific implementation, AT-SPI, which is Linux and
Unix specific
- it requires implementing the same functionality in three different
layers of the stack: AT-SPI, ATK, and GTK
- only GTK uses it; every other Linux and Unix toolkit and application
talks to AT-SPI directly, including assistive technologies
Sadly, we cannot incrementally port GTK to a new accessibility stack;
since ATK insulates us entirely from the underlying implementation, we
cannot replace it piecemeal. Instead, we're going to remove everything
and then incrementally build on a clean slate:
- add an "accessible" interface, implemented by GTK objects directly,
which describe the accessible role and state changes for every UI
element
- add an "assistive technology context" to proxy a native accessibility
API, and assign it to every widget
- implement the AT context depending on the platform

This flag causes pandoc to emit a proper doctype
declaration and, crucially, namespace declarations
for the xlink namespace that it insists on using
for href attributes. Without this, putting external
links in md documents doesn't survive the journey
through xml.
Add a table mapping event signals to their event controller
replacements, and a table mapping former GtkContainer
subclasses to their gtk_container_add replacement.
Add a GtkDirectoryList:monitored property, and
keep a file monitor if it is set to TRUE. To ensure
that the list reflects reality, we reload the directory
when monitoring is turned on after the fact. This means
that turning monitoring is expensive, while turning it
off is cheap, so we default to monitoring being on.
Simplify all view model APIs and always return G_TYPE_OBJECT as the
item-type for every model.
It turns out nobody uses item-type anyway.
So instead of adding lots of APIs, forcing people to think about it and
trying to figure out how to handle filter or map models that modify item
types, just having an easy life is a better approach.
All the models need to be able to deal with any type of object going
through anyway.
In 99.9% of all cases, these are just NULL, NULL.
So just do away with these arguments, people can
use the setters for the rare cases where they want
the scrolled window to use a different adjustment.
This kind of transient state sets the expectative that events update
devices, while it's more accurate to say that devices generate events.
It does not make to expose this function anymore.
Crossing events are now detached from widget state, all tricky consequences
from getting multiple crossing events are now somewhat moot. Resort to sending
all generated crossing events, and drop this barely (ever?) used API.
This is a list model holding strings, initialized
from a char **. String lists are buildable as well,
and that replaces the buildable support in GktDropDowns.
Scroll events can have history too, so make a
getter that works for both. This drops the
gdk_scroll_event_get_history getter that was
added a few commits earlier, since we now
store scroll history in the same way as
motion history.
Update the docs, and all callers.
