I recently turned gtk_widget_activate_action()
into a varargs function. That is more convenient
from C, but we need a non-varargs variant for
bindings. So add the old API back, under the
name gtk_widget_activate_action_variant(),
with a rename-to annotation.
The xdg_output v2 interface has a `name` property that reflects the
output name coming from the compositor.
This is the closest thing we can get to a connector name.
The migration from GdkScreen's monitor API to GdkMonitor left out a way
to get the connector's name of a monitor.
While there's no real guarantee coming from the underlying graphics
system that the connector's name is stable, some system components may
use it to uniquely identify a monitor until the next plug in/out event.
We need to create a muxer eagerly for every
widget that has class actions, since those
are otherwise missed in the action lookup
on the muxer side. But otherwise, there is
no reason to create parent muxers aggressively,
as long as we update the parent muxers on
root/unroot.
This reduces the number of muxers we create
in widget-factory from 210 to around 50.
Previously, we would not look any further for
an action once we found a match for the prefix,
defining inheritance by groups. Change this to
inheritance for individual actions, since we
are moving towards individual actions as the
main ingredient in GTKs action support.
The only cases of stateful actions we've seen
so far have been boolean properties, and we
don't really want to add much state handling
API, so lets just go with property actions
for now.
Adapt the only user in GtkText.
along with a new 'type-format' setting that allows
to choose the output format for the "Type" column.
The options implemented for this setting are:
'mime' : Output from g_content_type_get_mime_type().
'description' : Output from g_content_type_get_description().
'category' : It uses the corresponding generic icon
of the mime type to group by categories (aka basic types).
This produces a more compact output than previous options,
and allows for type families to be grouped together, so eg.
after sorting by "Type" column, jpeg and png images will
be placed together, or the various types of archiver files
will also be grouped together.
This format was copied from and currently used by Nautilus
list view, so we also improve consistency with Nautilus.
Bugzilla entry for Nautilus implementation is:
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=683722
The list of type families or categories can be checked on:
https://developer.gnome.org/icon-naming-spec/#mimetypes
This 'category' format is set as default.
