gtk_widget_set_visible and gtk_window_present
are better alternatives, and calling gtk_widget_show
on newly created widgets is no longer necessary
anyway.
These are being replaced by GtkFontDialog
and GtkFontDialogButton
This commit only moves the headers for GtkFontChooserWidget and
GtkFontChooserDialog to deprecated/, and keeps the implementations
in gtk/, since they will eventually be salvaged into a private
GtkFontChooserWindow.
Work harder to find examples for char variation
features, and pull the feature labels out of
the font if possible. This lets us show
meaningful names like "Localised @ and & symbols"
instead of "Stylistic Set 7" or even "ss07".
Those property features don't seem to be in use anywhere.
They are redundant since the docs cover the same information
and more. They also created unnecessary translation work.
Closes#4904
Pango may not do this for us, so don't rely on it.
We only show one face with a given name, and we
prefer a variable face over a non-variable one.
The check for variable faces requires new Pango
API that will be in Pango 1.52.
Allowing to tweak the axes of named instances does
not do any harm. If we don't, we have to worry that
we need at least one non-named-instance in the face
list, and make it more obvious how to pick it out.
Setting variations to their default value causes
them to show up in the serialization of the font
description - a font description has no idea about
the default values, so can't filter them out.
Avoid that.
The change in 740559a54f to populate the list incrementally
broke initial font selection. Fix that, by trying to select
until the incremental filling is done.
Fixes: #3687
Currently, only if PangoFT2 is present and used it is supported
to retrieve the languages that are supported by a particular font.
If we don't have PangoFT2, remove the language filtering and the
sample text selection.
Based on earlier work by Chun-wei Fan, see
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/-/merge_requests/2614
Look at the languages supported by a font, and pick
a suitable sample text from the pango list of sample
texts. We can only implement this on platforms using
fontconfig, since it relies on pangofc apis.
This bumps the pango dependency to 1.47.1.
A radiobutton without indicator is really just a togglebutton with a
group.
A radiobutton with indicator is really just a checkbutton with a group.
Make checkbutton its own widget not inheriting from GtkButton.
GtkRadioButton could be removed but it stays for now.
Radiobutton && !draw-indicator => Togglebutton
Checkbutton && !draw-indicator => Togglebutton
Radiobutton && draw-indicator => CheckButton + group
By adding 20 fonts / frame to the font list, we can
get the font chooser dialog to show up much faster.
This change gets the font chooser up in 265ms here.
To build a better world sometimes means having to tear the old one down.

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

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.
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.
