I work on SWT which is based on GTK3 on the Linux side. We have
implemented a custom GTK container called SwtFixed. It lets us do sizing
manipulation and some other things, but most importantly every SWT
widget (native or not) has one as its parent.
In SWT we mostly use native GTK widgets, but we also have emulated
widgets. These are widgets that fill a niche which GTK cannot provide,
and are manually drawn at the Java level onto an SwtFixed instance. From
the GTK/ATK/OS perspective, these widgets only exist as SwtFixed containers.
The use case we have is that these emulated widgets can sometimes have
children which are purely drawn. For example CTabFolder is a
GtkNotebook-like widget, and each tab is a "child" of the parent
CTabFolder. However these children do not have their own SwtFixed
instances, they are just Java objects which are drawn onto the parent
CTabFolder's SwtFixed instance.
I've created a custom ATK implementation for SwtFixed containers, which
override the necessary interfaces and communicate with Java to get all
the information to Orca. It would be useful if we could somehow connect
these children of emulated widgets with that implementation.
