Jonathan Blandford dc754528a0 Remove handle_box from App demo.
Mon Oct 22 14:08:26 2001  Jonathan Blandford  <jrb@redhat.com>

	* demos/gtk-demo/appwindow.c: Remove handle_box from App demo.

	* gtk/gtktreeview.c (size_allocate): Move to a different drawing
	system.  Instead of having a window the size of the tree, we have
	a window the size of widget->allocation, and simply draw with the
	offset.
	(coords_are_over_arrow): ditto.  Move to window coordinates.
	(do_prelight): ditto
	(do_unprelight): ditto

	* gtk/gtktreemodelsort.c (gtk_tree_model_sort_rows_reordered):
	Minor fix from Kristian Rietveld to fix unsorted case.

<!-- ##### SECTION Title ##### -->
Drag and Drop
<!-- ##### SECTION Short_Description ##### -->
Functions for controlling drag and drop handling.
<!-- ##### SECTION Long_Description ##### -->
<para>
GTK+ has a rich set of functions for doing inter-process
communication via the drag-and-drop metaphor. GTK+
can do drag-and-drop (DND) via multiple protocols.
The currently supported protocols are the Xdnd and
Motif protocols.
As well as the functions listed here, applications
may need to use some facilities provided for
<link linkend="gtk-Selections">Selections</link>.
Also, the Drag and Drop API makes use of signals
in the #GtkWidget class.

<!-- ##### ENUM GtkDestDefaults ##### -->
<para>
The #GtkDestfaults enumeration specifies the various
types of action that will be taken on behalf
of the user for a drag destination site.

If set for a widget, when a drop occurs, GTK+ will
will check if the drag matches this widget's

GTK+ will call gtk_drag_data_get() on behalf
of the widget. Whether or not the drop is successful,
GTK+ will call gtk_drag_finish(). If the action
was a move, then if the drag was successful, then
%TRUE will be passed for the @delete parameter
to gtk_drag_finish().

@GTK_TARGET_SAME_APP:
@GTK_TARGET_SAME_WIDGET:
<!-- ##### FUNCTION gtk_drag_dest_set ##### -->
<para>
Sets a widget as a potential drop destination.
</para>
@widget: a #GtkWidget
@flags: the flags that specify what actions GTK+ should take
on behalf of a widget for drops onto that widget. The @targets
and @actions fields only are used if %GTK_DEST_DEFAULT_MOTION
or %GTK_DEST_DEFAULT_DROP are given.
@targets: a pointer to an array of #GtkTargetEntry indicating
the drop types that this widget will accept.
@n_targets: the number of entries in @targets.
@actions: a bitmask of possible actions for a drop onto this
widget.
<!-- ##### FUNCTION gtk_drag_dest_set_proxy ##### -->
<para>
Sets this widget as a proxy for drops to another window.
</para>
@widget: a #GtkWidget
@proxy_window: the window to which to forward drag events
@protocol: the drag protocol which the @proxy_window accepts
(You can use gdk_drag_get_protocol() to determine this)
@use_coordinates: If true, send the same coordinates to the
destination, because it is an embedded
subwindow.
<!-- ##### FUNCTION gtk_drag_dest_unset ##### -->
<para>
Clears information about a drop destination set with
gtk_drag_dest_set(). The widget will no longer receive
notification of drags.
</para>
@widget: a #GtkWidget
<!-- ##### FUNCTION gtk_drag_dest_find_target ##### -->

<para>
</para>
@widget:
@target_list:
<!-- ##### FUNCTION gtk_drag_finish ##### -->
<para>
Informs the drag source that the drop is finished, and
that the data of the drag will no longer be required.
</para>
@context: the drag context.
@success: a flag indicating whether the drop was successful
@del: a flag indicating whether the source should delete the
original data. (This should be %TRUE for a move)
@time: the timestamp from the "drag_data_drop" signal.
<!-- ##### FUNCTION gtk_drag_get_data ##### -->
<para>
Get the data associated with a drag. When the data
is received or the retrieval fails, GTK+ will emit a
"drag_data_received" signal. Failure of the retrieval
is indicated by the length field of the @selection_data
signal parameter being negative. However, when gtk_drag_get_data()
is called implicitely because the %GTK_DRAG_DEFAULT_DROP was set,
then the widget will not receive notification of failed
drops.
</para>
@widget: the widget that will receive the "drag_data_received"
signal.
@context: the drag context
@target: the target (form of the data) to retrieve.
@time: a timestamp for retrieving the data. This will
generally be the time received in a "drag_data_motion"
or "drag_data_drop" signal.
<!-- ##### FUNCTION gtk_drag_get_source_widget ##### -->
<para>
Determines the source widget for a drag.
</para>
@context: a (destination side) drag context.
@Returns: if the drag is occurring within a single application,
a pointer to the source widget. Otherwise, %NULL.
<!-- ##### FUNCTION gtk_drag_highlight ##### -->
<para>
Draws a highlight around a widget. This will attach
handlers to "expose_event" and "draw", so the highlight
will continue to be displayed until gtk_drag_unhighlight()
is called.
</para>
@widget: a widget to highlight
<!-- ##### FUNCTION gtk_drag_unhighlight ##### -->
<para>
Removes a highlight set by gtk_drag_highlight() from
a widget.
</para>
@widget: a widget to remove the highlight from.
<!-- ##### FUNCTION gtk_drag_begin ##### -->
<para>
Initiates a drag on the source side. The function
only needs to be used when the application is
starting drags itself, and is not needed when
gtk_drag_source_set() is used.
</para>
@widget: the source widget.
@targets: The targets (data formats) in which the
source can provide the data.
@actions: A bitmask of the allowed drag actions for this
drag.
@button: The button the user clicked to start the drag.
@event: The event that triggered the start of the
drag.
@Returns: The context for this drag.
