Replace the gdk_surface_move_to_rect() API with a new GdkSurface method called gdk_surface_present_popup() taking a new GdkPopupLayout object describing how they should be laid out on screen. The layout properties provided are the same as the ones used with gdk_surface_move_to_rect(), except they are now set up using GdkPopupLayout. Calling gdk_surface_present_popup() will either show the popup at the position described using the popup layout object and a new unconstrained size, or reposition it accordingly. In some situations, such as when a popup is set to autohide, presenting may immediately fail, in case the grab was not granted by the display server. After a successful present, the result of the layout can be queried using the following methods: * gdk_surface_get_position() - to get the position relative to its parent * gdk_surface_get_width() - to get the current width * gdk_surface_get_height() - to get the current height * gdk_surface_get_rect_anchor() - to get the anchor point on the anchor rectangle the popup was effectively positioned against given constraints defined by the environment and the layout rules provided via GdkPopupLayout. * gdk_surface_get_surface_anchor() - the same as the one above but for the surface anchor. A new signal replaces the old "moved-to-rect" one - "popup-layout-changed". However, it is only intended to be emitted when the layout changes implicitly by the windowing system, for example if the monitor resolution changed, or the parent window moved. |

GTK — The GTK toolkit
General information
GTK is a multi-platform toolkit for creating graphical user interfaces. Offering a complete set of widgets, GTK is suitable for projects ranging from small one-off projects to complete application suites.
GTK is free software and part of the GNU Project. However, the licensing terms for GTK, the GNU LGPL, allow it to be used by all developers, including those developing proprietary software, without any license fees or royalties.

Building and installing
In order to build GTK you will need:
You will also need various dependencies, based on the platform you are building for:
If you are building the X11 backend, you will also need:
- Xlib, and the following X extensions:
- xrandr
- xrender
- xi
- xext
- xfixes
- xcursor
- xdamage
- xcomposite
- atk-bridge-2.0
If you are building the Wayland backend, you will also need:
- Wayland-client
- Wayland-protocols
- Wayland-cursor
- Wayland-EGL
Once you have all the necessary dependencies, you can build GTK by using Meson:
$ meson _build .
$ cd _build
$ ninja
You can run the test suite using:
$ meson test
And, finally, you can install GTK using:
$ sudo ninja install
Complete information about installing GTK+ and related libraries can be found in the file:
docs/reference/gtk/html/gtk-building.html
Or online
How to report bugs
Bugs should be reported on the issues page.
In the bug report please include:
-
Information about your system. For instance:
- which version of GTK you are using
- what operating system and version
- for Linux, which distribution
- if you built GTK, the list of options used to configure the build
And anything else you think is relevant.
-
How to reproduce the bug.
If you can reproduce it with one of the demo applications that are built in the demos/ subdirectory, on one of the test programs that are built in the tests/ 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.
-
If the bug was a crash, the exact text that was printed out when the crash occurred.
-
Further information such as stack traces may be useful, but is not necessary.
Release notes
The release notes for GTK are part of the migration guide in the API reference. See:
Licensing terms
GTK is released under the terms of the GNU Lesser General Public License, version 2.1 or, at your option, any later version, as published by the Free Software Foundation.
Please, see the COPYING
file for further information.
