Hi,

since this is in active development, I thought I'd quickly share the
things I've discovered that don't quite seem right.

Unfortunately, I don't have the first clue about gtk3 css.  I've
looked at darktable.css, and while I can parse and understand what the
settings mean, I've a hard time quickly figuring out what corresponds
to what.  I might, given enouch time to dig and figure it out (or if
it's documented somewhere, please point it out).

Anyhow, I gave the gtk3 implementation a shot, and immediately ran
into quite a number of issues.

I've a few screenshots to demonstrate, all in 
http://richard.levitte.org/~levitte/for-darktable/

dt-en1.png - shows lighttable, which has a fairly nice format, but I'm
        noticing that the panels have no scroll bars, and I noticed
        that they aren't reacting to the mouse wheel unless I click in
        the area of the panel or where its scroll bar is supposed to
        be.

        Also, it disturbs me a little that the area where there are
        supposed to be styles to choose from is the same grey as the
        surrounding area.  In pre-gkt3, that area is a different grey,
        making it more obvious that there could be something to choose
        from in there.

dt-en2.png - shows darkroom, and the obvious thing is that the right
        panel hasn't been made to fit the modules.  I assume that it's
        because of the loooong "contrast brightness saturation"
        title.  And while I can live with that, it does pose some
        functional problems, as demonstrated by:

dt-en3.png - shows darkroom with the levels module expanded.  As you
        can see, it is a bit difficult to use properly for the white
        end.

Now, over to swedish:

dt-sv1.png - this is lighttable, and gods! is the right panel huge!  I
        assume, however, that this is due to the fairly long
        translation of "write sidecar files".  So all right, fine, I
        might figure out a way to deal with that by shortening the
        translation, but...

dt-sv2.png - this is darkroom, and this right panel is absurd, there's
        nothing that really explains why...  there's even extra room
        with the longest title (the translation of "contrast
        brightness saturation").

        This, as well as the too small right panel in dt-en[23].png,
        indicates that there's a co-dependency between different views
        as far as panel sizes go.  I normally start with the
        lighttable view, and it seems that the size of the right panel
        there affects the right panel size in the darkroom view.  Is
        that intended?


If this has any impact, I use ctwm for window management, not one of
the newer desktop systems.

Cheers,
Richard
