i just uploaded gtk+-2 port packages of drakxtools, harddrake and mcc.
most tools have been ported to gtk+2, but :
- drakfloppy
- net_monitor
- drakperm
some packages may have problems in some places. eg: XFdrake take quite
a long time to display its gui regarding monitor configuration.
as for the mandrake control-center, here's the changelog :
enhancements:
- perl style fixes
- ui is a lot faster to refresh
- quite a lot less hardcoded values, giving more control on icons size
- gtk+2 port
- anti aliased fonts
- reorganize source in a cleaner way
- better icon/text alignment
- comment code
- internal logic has been *much* improved
- simplify code by reusing MDK::Common
- dialog window are now modal
- enhanced topic descriptions
- new topic design (2 columns)
- splash screen
- ...
bug fixes:
- mcc is now resistant to missing icons in extra themes and will fall
back on default icons if some are missing
- a left button isn't any more highlighted if one has put the
cursor on its position *before* it's drawn the first time
- transparent icons can be arbitrary placed in right part of mcc :
there's not anymore any alignment problems with background, so
one can use non horizontally hachured background for right part
know bugs / limitations:
- resizing the main window should resizing the right icons table which
should resize description texts
- gtk+ engines are know to dramatically slow down *first* display of
right icons [not that much now]
- there should be some spacing between right icons and their
description
- descriptions are not yet written ("dummy description")
[hello yura :-)]
- gtk+-2 support for embedding is broken for now
the tool rendering is quite a lot nicer :-), especially if you use
gtk-engines2.
happy testing.
note: i'll try to fix know bugs until tomorrow, but then i'll be
offline because of holydays from december 20 to january 2.
