Ok, so I modified the evas_object_move and evas_object_geometry_get
functions to work with all evas objects now (not just smart objects, but
rectangles, etc, etc). Every example in ecore_evas/src/examples works
well now without modification ... with ONE exception. (elm breakage
because of this is another story that I have not really dug into yet)
That exception is this:
Since evas_object_move handles adding the framespace to the object
(geometry_get will subtract it), the examples do not work without an
evas_object_move first. Here is a bit of example code (taken from
ecore_evas_basics_example.c):
bg = evas_object_rectangle_add(canvas);
evas_object_color_set(bg, 0, 0, 255, 255);
evas_object_resize(bg, 200, 200);
evas_object_show(bg);
ecore_evas_object_associate(ee, bg, ECORE_EVAS_OBJECT_ASSOCIATE_BASE);
This will fail (in that bg will not be in the proper position) because
evas_object_move is not called for it (to adjust position for
framespace). Sadly, I am seeing a lot of this in the examples
(evas_object_move not being called)...which means it is probably being
done the same way in various code all over the place.
There are two ways to handle this (as I see it). One, we can add the
evas_object_move to the examples and require that people call
evas_object_move after object creation in their code). Not an ideal
solution imo :/
The other thing we could do is, in evas_object_add (or somewhere
appropriate), add the framespace adjustments during object creation.
This approach seems more viable imo. If we add it there, there is no
problem with evas_object_move because it already checks if the object is
in framespace or not. Since the framespace adjustments would be made at
creation, then evas_object_move will see that it's not in framespace and
thus not Re-add the framespace values.
I am sure that both of these approaches have additional drawbacks...thus
this RFC email before I go any further.
