This new function takes a GdkRGBA in order to set the background to
an alpha color. Keep in mind that RGBA visuals and a composited environment
are still necessary to have an alpha background displayed.
GdkRGBA is a boxed struct similar to GdkColor, with the difference
that it stores alpha information as well, and colors are stored in
[0..1] doubles, in the cairo spirit.
gdk_cairo_set_source_rgba() has been also added to allow easier handling
of this new type.
It is just too annoying to have to implement these properties in
every scrollable. Instead, we now have ::min-content-height/width
in GtkScrolledWindow.
We also add GtkScrollablePolicy to determine how to size the
scrollable content.
The GtkScrollable interface provides "hadjustment" and "vadjustment"
properties that are used by GtkScrolledWindow. It replaces
the ::set_scroll_adjustment signal. The scrollable interface
also has ::min-display-width/height properties that can be
used to control the minimally visible part inside a scrolled window.
Use input-only windows for capturing input, and just draw onto
the parent window. This allows themes to make entries with rounded
corners. Patch by Boram Park.

We add a "Getting started" chapter that will grow into a
(hopefully) non-outdated, maintained tutorial. For now, it
includes two minimal examples by xincluding them.
GtkComboBox now sports a construct-only "has-entry" property which
decides if it uses a GtkEntry to allow additional user input. Also
it has a new "entry-text-column" to fetch strings for the entry
from the model.
This patch deprecates the GtkComboBoxEntry and updates the rest of GTK+
to use the new semantics on GtkComboBox instead.
GtkComboBoxEntry will be removed altogether before GTK+ 3, in a
later commit.
We remove the resize grip from GtkStatusbar, but keep the code
that makes the content avoid the grip, and adapt it to GtkWindow
grips.
The gtk_status_bar_set/get_has_resize_grip() functions and related
properties are removed.
Allow any window to display a resize grip, in the south-east or
south-west corner, depending on text direction. This is implemented
as a shaped window that gets overlayed on top of whatever content
is there. We add api that allows widgets to avoid the resize grip,
if desired.
The ::has-resize-grip property controls if a window may display
a resize grip. It will only be displayed if the window is resizable
and not maximized.
The size and visual appearance of the resize grip is under theme
control, using the resize-grip-width/height style properties and
the paint_resize_grip style function.
The ownership of the return value for gdk_pixbuf_get_from_window() and
gdk_pixbuf_get_from_surface() was determined by the first argument.
Because that is an ugly design and the functions are new to GTK3, we
decided to adapt them.
And that adaptation was quite easy since almost no one passses anything
but NULL as the first argument.
It turns out that the previous handling of just providing a way to set
visuals just on toplevels was not sufficient. In particular it
complicated the various implementations of the tray icon specification.
This patch reintroduces gtk_widget_set_visual() which behaves very
similar to GTK2's gtk_widget_set_colormap().
A future commit will remove the gtk_window_set_visual() function.
This commit add some text about mult-window ::draw implementations,
pointing out the gtk_cairo_should_draw_window() and
gtk_cairo_transform_to_window() convenience functions.
The function reverses the transform that GTK does before emitting a draw
event. So we can use it in "old" widgets to revert the coordinate system
properly.
It doesn't make sense to keep them separate as GtkSizeRequest requires a
GtkWidget and GtkWidget implements GtkSizeRequest, so you can never have
one without the other.
It also makes the code a lot easier because no casts are required when
calling functions.
Also, the names would translate to gtk_widget_get_width() and people
agreed that this would be a too generic name, so a "preferred" was added
to the names.
So this patch moves the functions:
gtk_size_request_get_request_mode() => gtk_widget_get_request_mode()
gtk_size_request_get_width() => gtk_widget_get_preferred_width()
gtk_size_request_get_height() => gtk_widget_get_preferred_height()
gtk_size_request_get_size() => gtk_widget_get_preferred_size()
gtk_size_request_get_width_for_height() =>
gtk_widget_get_preferred_width_for_height()
gtk_size_request_get_height_for_width() =>
gtk_widget_get_preferred_height_for_width()
... and moves the corresponding vfuncs to the GtkWidgetClass.
The patch also renames the implementations of the vfuncs in widgets to
include the word "preferrred".
The feature can and should be implemented manually using
gdk_window_get_background() and Cairo drawing. A non-cairo drawing API
does not make sense in GDK anymore.
The functions are gtk_widget_get_allocated_width() and
gtk_widget_get_allocated_height().
They are currently identical to using width/height of
gtk_widget_get_allocation(), but are introduced for ease of use (no need
to use a custom struct) and to free people from having to think about
allocation.x and allocation.y (which is where the origin of the cairo
context in GtkWidget::draw is located).
In particular, the following functions are gone:
- gdk_screen_get_default_colormap()
- gdk_screen_set_default_colormap()
- gdk_screen_get_system_colormap()
- gdk_screen_get_rgba_colormap()
This removes:
gtk_widget_set_default_colormap()
gtk_widget_get_default_colormap()
gtk_widget_get_default_visual()
Colormaps are gone, and the default visual is the system visual of the
default screen.
Add gtk_window_set_visual() and a "visual" property. This allows
changing the window visual to the rgba one and other awesome things
(like implementing the trayicon spec).
The 3 functions in question were:
- gdk_pixbuf_render_threshold_alpha()
- gdk_pixbuf_render_pixmap_and_mask()
- gdk_pixbuf_render_pixmap_and_mask_for_colormap()
All of them can be replaced using Cairo if they have to. The
functionality is only needed to talk to old X interfaces and normal apps
do fine without them.
Now the window background is a cairo_pattern_t. The backends will try to
set this as good as they can on the windowing system, but no guarantees
are made on wether the windowing system supports the pattern.
Also gets rid of GDK_NO_BG as undefined behavior is not a good idea to
support, and GDK_NO_BG effectively made the window's contents undefined.
It wasn't effectively used in GTK anyway.
This removes gdk_window_shape_combine_mask() and
gdk_window_input_shape_combine_mask(). GdkBitmap is going away and a
replacement exists via the combine_region() functions and
gdk_cairo_region_create_from_surface().
Replace gtk_widget_shape_combine_region() with
gtk_widget_shape_combine_mask() and
gtk_widget_input_shape_combine_region() with
gtk_widget_input_shape_combine_mask().
As GdkBitmap is going away, and the region equivalents already exist,
this seems like pretty much the default step to take.
Includes code to fix up the users.
The function converts the given surface into an alpha bitmap mask. This
is mostly useful for setting shape regions.
Also adds a new internal function _gdk_cairo_surface_extents() that
computes a surface's extents.
Dealing with bare pointers is problematic for language bindings,
using interned strings is much more straightforward and more than
good enough for what is needed here.

With gtk_show_uri, global configurability of link activation has
moved to GIO/gvfs. For local overrides, GtkLinkButton has the ::clicked
signal, and GtkAboutDialog gets an ::activate-link signal.

* add per-display gdk_x11_display_error_trap_push()
(X11-specific because gdk_error_trap_push() probably
should have been)
* make gdk_error_trap_push() handle only GDK displays
not displays opened without a GDK wrapper
* make gdk_error_trap_pop() and gdk_x11_display_error_trap_pop()
automatically sync only if needed, so manual gdk_flush() is not
required
* add gdk_error_trap_pop_ignored() which just asynchronously
ignores errors, so never needs to sync
* add G_GNUC_WARN_UNUSED_RESULT to plain pop(), because
if you use plain pop() and don't need the return value,
the async gdk_error_trap_pop_ignored() should be used
instead. This results in lots of warnings to clean
up in a later patch.
The main objective here was to avoid the need to sync just
to ignore an error. Now, syncing is automatic, and only
happens when we need to know the error code.

When grouping height-for-width trading widgets (wrapping labels for instance)
vertically; the height for the minimum width will always be used for the entire
group... this patch warns about this in the docs.
This was the last exported variable; it wasn't multihead safe,
and there's easy replacement with gdk_display_get_default().
Also drop the GDK_DISPLAY() macro which was just a wrapper around
the variable.
With the demise of GtkList and GtkTree, it has GtkMenuItem as sole
derived class, and is not really adding any value as a separate class.
Its few useful features have been merged into GtkMenuItem.
Bug 629104
The keysyms create a lot of potential namespace conflicts for
C, and are especially problematic for introspection, where we take
constants into the namespace, so GDK_Display conflicts with GdkDisplay.
For C application compatiblity, add gdkkeysyms-compat.h which uses
the old names.
Just one user in GTK+ continues to use gdkkeysyms-compat.h, which is
the gtkimcontextsimple.c, since porting that requires porting more
custom Perl code.
Having variables exported from a DLL is slightly painful and
potentially error-prone on Windows, so let's try get rid of them now
when we can. Starting with these.
