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.
It is getting replaced by GtkAlertDialog
This commit only moves the header to deprecated/,
and keeps the implementation in gtk/, since it will
eventually be salvaged into a private, dialog-free
widget.
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
Remove a boatload of "or %NULL" from nullable parameters
and return values. gi-docgen generates suitable text from
the annotation that we don't need to duplicate.
This adds a few missing nullable annotations too.
If there is no secondary text, then the primary text is just a message,
not a title, and should not use title style.
This partially reverts 1e3ec7c1f9. The
message dialog nown looks like it used to in GTK 3. However, it's still
styled only using a style class rather than using pango markup, as in
GTK 3.
Fixes#3509
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
For more information, see: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/-/issues/2833
Instead, use a new title style class to let
themes influence title formatting. Note that
the theme style will be overridden if the
application uses markup for presentation,
such as <b> or <i>.
The skip-taskbar, skip-pager and urgency hints were
only ever implemented for X11, and are not very useful
with modern desktops. Relegate the functionality to
x11 backend api, and drop the GtkWindow api.
Remove all the old 2.x and 3.x version annotations.
GTK+ 4 is a new start, and from the perspective of a
GTK+ 4 developer all these APIs have been around since
the beginning.
We used to always make the labels in message dialogs selectable,
which is a bit problematic wrt. to keynav - the label can
unexpectedly 'turn blue', which irritates some people.
With the new gtk-keynav-use-caret setting, we can now only
make the labels selectable when it is required for accessibilty
reasons.
We don't set use-header-bar for message dialogs, since we
want the buttons in the action area, but we do want a nice
rounded csd titlebar. Add back the box that was used before
to achieve this, when appropriate.
We had already set the image to be hidden in the .ui file.
This patch removes the image altogether, and deprecates the
property, setter and getter.
If an image is explicitly put with the setter, it is still
shown, so to not break existing users of this API.
Based on a patch by Jon McCann.
