Hello Erwin. GDL is really useful and we are also using it in our project. The question you've stated was discussed recently, and here is the position on it: http://mail.gnome.org/archives/desktop-devel-list/2005-August/msg00207.html Although I also would like to see such widget in GTK+. The thing we can change is to develop such widget, polish it and add more features. Btw, it's already included into libegg, but the feature of that gdl version is unclear. What should we do with? It seems that libegg dock version is unmaintainer and development happens in gdl CVS module. We should also more actively fix bug in this widget - there are some filled in CVS, but they aren't handled for now. And of course I am asking question about generic docking widget design. Currently application with dock widgets should handle four XML trees - UI manager tree, toolbar editor tree and GDL tree. Also it's possible to get some widgets from glade xml tree. Isn't it too much? This leads to some ideas like XUL - using of common dynamic tree to store all UI, but I don't know it this can be easily implemented. _______________________________________________ gtk-devel-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-devel-list
