The preview widget harks from a platform before time, when we didn't
have GIO, or a thumbnail specification.
Very few applications use it correctly, if at all; it has an horrid hack
to deal with the ownership of the widget's instance when accessed
through the getter function; it messes up the layout of the widget and
its label is less than useful when it comes to file names longer than a
dozen characters; it's a poor substitute for a proper thumbnail view.
GtkFileChooser's API predates GIO by a few years, so it started off with
filenames and URI as character arrays. After introducing GIO as a
dependency, the API included GFile-based entry points.
It's much more appropriate to use GFile everywhere, as we want to
encourage people to use GIO instead of passing random bytes to low level
POSIX API.
See: #2455
Add properties, and use string arrays instead of lists.
Among other things, this renames gtk_icon_theme_list_icons
to gtk_icon_theme_get_icon_names.

Accessors like these are weird to have and we can add widgets to the
content area via gtk_container_add() as well as add widgets to the
action area via gtk_info_bar_add_action_widget().
It is not great to put a function in the public api and
document it as "do not call this" only so we can refer
to its docs in other places. Therefore, fold the docs
directly into the input handling overview chapter.
These are always set to the same value as the corresponding border
radius properties. They are also non-standard, so remove them and
replace them with the border radius properties everywhere.
Fixes#2414
This is an unused feature that's way too complicated for a default
calendar widget and complicates the implementation a lot. Since we want
to eventually replace this with actual widgets, remove the details
support now.
Those functions are unused and the documentation says "Returns some
random number that the icon theme creator chose" which does not seem at
all useful and an implementation detail.
So get rid of it.
We expose no API to get at any colors for drawing symbolics, so we
shouldn't have APIs to draw with them.
Apart from that, those APIs look like a box of crayons, not like an
icontheme.
The API encouraged wrong usage - most of the users were indeed wrong.
Use the correct version instead:
gtk_icon_theme_get_for_display (gtk_widget_get_display ())
This is a useful widget to have, and it has minimal api.
Not having it public forces apps to recreate a lot of
complicated machinery for not good reason, if they need
an Emoji chooser in a different context.
Add GtkWidget API for adding and removing style classes, as well as
checking whether a widget has a style class applied.
Everyone has to go through GtkStyleContext for this these days but with
GtkStyleContext eventually going away, it makse sense for GtkWidget to
have API for this.
This is a more modern way of doing things, and avoids a window
of type GTK_WINDOW_POPUP. With a popover, it doesn't make sense
to have a positioning function, so remove that api.
Do away with the proxy menu items, and instead
just have toolitems provide a label for overflow
items. We create the overflow widgets ourselves
already, as model buttons.
Also replace the toggle button used for overflow
with a menubutton, simplifying things further.
- Move into its own section
- Split GtkTreeListRow into its own document
Trees are weird with listmodels and they deserve their own treatment,
they shouldn't be mushed up with the rest of the list machinery.
... and use them.
Also, rename them from is/contains-pointer-focus to is/contains-pointer,
that's clear enough and not too long.
Finally, adapt the semantics of contains-pointer to mirror
GtkEventControllerKey::contains-focus. If is-pointer is set, so is
contains-pointer, they are not exclusive.
Which is what all users of this property wanted, too.
GtkBuilderScope is an interface that provides the scope that a builder
instance operates in.
It creates closures and resolves types. Language bindings are meant to
use this interface to customize the behavior of builder files, in
particular when instantiating templates.
A default implementation for C is provided via GtkBuilderCScope (to keep
with the awkward naming that glib uses for closures). It is derivable on
purpose so that languages or extensions that extend C can use it.
The reftest code in fact does derive GtkBuilderCScope for its own scope
implementation that implements looking up symbols in modules.
gtk-widget-factory was updated to use the new GtkBuilderCScope to add
its custom callback symbols.
So it does it different from gtk-demo, which uses the normal way of
exporting symbols for dlsym() and thereby makes the 2 demos test the 2
ways GtkBuilder uses for looking up symbols.
Use it as the default object for expression binds and when connecting
signals. It is intended to work kind of as the "this" object while
parsing. In fact, the term "current object" was stolen from the Java
docs and various C++ tutorials for the this pointer.
Set the current object in gtk_widget_init_template() and
GtkListItemBuilder.
This more-or-less replaces the object passed to
gtk_builder_connect_signals() in GTK3.
gtk_builder_connect_signals() is no longer necessary, because all the
setup that made it necessary to have this extra step is now done
automatically via the closure functions.
This will be the future way to connect signals automatically (and be
used for other things, too).
For now, gtk_builder_connect_signals_default() is ported to use it.
