Check buttons lost their ability to hold general
content. And while that is maybe sad, the tiny
images here are not really useful anyway, and
should just go away.
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 signal does not work on native file choosers,
and it exposes internals of the widget that should
not be public. And it is just not very interesting.

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.
The port is kind of evil, in that it stores either a PangoFontFamily or a
PangoFontFace in the list, depending on if the fontchooser is configured
to select fonts or faces.
It also does not cache the font description anymore, so more calls to
pango_font_describe() may happen.
If both of these issues turn out problematic, the fontchooser would need
to resurrect GtkDelayedFontDescription again and put objects of that
type through the model.
These changes depend on Pango 1.46's introduction of listmodels and
various new getters, so the dependency has been upgraded.
We don't want wrapping labels to cause tooltips to
have excessive height, so we need to set a reasonable
value for width-chars, without forcing short tooltips
into a full line length. Also be careful to respect
preexisting line breaks (we have such examples in
widget factory).
This commit is porting GtkPaned to be derived
from GtkWidget instead of GtkContainer, while adding
start-child and end-child properties. The existing
properties are renamed to follow the start/end naming
scheme, and we add proper getters and setters.
Update all users.

We want to remove GtkBin and GtkContainer as they don't
provide much useful functionality anymore. This requires
us to move get_request_mode and compute_expand down.
Update the accessible implementation to match, remove
remnants of container implementations in GtkWindow
subclasses, and fix livecycle issues around destroy
vs dispose in GtkAssistant.
After this commit, using gtk_container_add on window
subclasses is not allowed anymore, but adding childing
with <child> in ui files still works.
See #2681
The viewport draws a frame at the same place as
the scrolled window, so there is really no need
to have that ability in both. Just drop the frame
from viewports.
Make GtkScaleButton a widget that has a toggle button
as a child, just like all the other button widgets now.
The immediate benefit of this arrangement is to avoid
the "double focus" problem when we pop up the popup.
Update accessible, demos and tests to match.
This is one of the situations, where can-focus can still
be used to tweak focus behavior of leaf widgets. Color
swatches are focusable by default to allow selecting colors
with the keyboard. But when used as color samples, they
should not take focus.
When no printer has been selected (e.g. because we don't
find any printers), the 'print at' radio group should be
insensitive, except for the 'now' choice. Selecting another
option in this situation will lead to a crash.
