In many cases, we have an "extra-menu" property that is used to allow
applications to join menus into the native menu for the widget. Previously,
this was done by nesting that menu in a section.
Doing so increases the complexity of the rules for GtkMenuTracker as you
may want different handling from inside of the section vs toplevel
sections.
If instead we synthetically glue the menus together, we have a much more
natural joining of menus as the application developer would expect for
their menu.
This also ports GtkLabel, GtkText, GtkPasswordEntry, and GtkTextView to
use the joined menu helper.
The joined menu helper comes originally from GNOME Builder and has had
extensive use there.
Fixes#4094
We were not handling the case right in which we
want to use underlines, but not use markup. Since
we are now using pango_parse_markup for this case,
we need to escape the xml markup.
Fixes: #4041
The intention of the code is to find a focusable ancestor,
so it needs to look at the focusable property, not at
can-focus. This is a change from GTK 3, where can-focus
was the correct property to look at.
Fixes: #3965
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.
The change in 875a92b95f made labels strip
out underlines earlier, but overlooked that this made
mnemonics not work before the timeout to show them
has passed. That was unintentional. Make mnemonics
work regardless of their visibility, again.
We were not handling mnemonics vs markup right
in all cases. Rewrite the _-stripping code to
do it during the link parsing, instead of as
a separate function. This avoids the issue of
stripping _ from attribute names in markup.
Add tests.

If multiple nested widgets have drag sources on them, both using bubble
phase, we need to reliably pick the inner one. Both of them will try to
start dragging, and we need to make sure there are no situations where the
outer widget starts drag earlier and cancels the inner one.
Currently, this can easily happen via integer rounding: start and current
coordinates passed into gtk_drag_check_threshold() are initially doubles
(other than in GtkNotebook and GtkIconView), and are casted to ints. Then
those rounded values are used to calculate deltas to compare to the drag
threshold, losing quite a lot of precision along the way, and often
resulting in the outer widget getting larger deltas.
To avoid it, just don't round it. Introduce a variant of the function that
operates on doubles: gtk_drag_check_threshold_double() and use it instead
of the original everywhere.
Rename a few local variables to be clearer about whether they belong to
the widget or to the layout.
Remove a workaround for an old bug that is no longer valid. We don't
underallocate the layout anymore. Aways center vertically, with respect
to the yalign.
The overarching goal here is to not queue a resize
unless something has actually changed. In columnview
scenarios, we often deal with hundreds of labels.
Labels are cattle, not pets.
Using GList is a bit lame, and makes the API more complicated to use
than necessary in the common case.
The only real use case for a GList is gtk_widget_add_mnemonic_label(),
and for that we can use the GValue-based API instead.
Fixes: #3343
We don't want to select on focus-in when the focus
comes from a child. The case where this does harm
is when you activate copy or paste actions from the
context menu. We close the menu before triggering the
action, and if that causes the text in the label to
be selected, unexpected things happen, since the action
applies to the current selection.
This is the equivalent of cd9f5733b3 for GtkLabel.
Use the label accessible role for GtkLabel. ARIA has some
ominous wording about it going way, but while we have it,
GtkLabel is the obvious candidate for carrying it.
Update the documentation and add a test.
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
