Just for comparision: there's 231 directories (and 4 files, but they aren't pictures - I was testing with GIMP) in the directory on network drive I tried opening, and the Windows native chooser took 3 seconds to display the entire list. GTK+'s chooser displayed about a tenth of the list after about 10 seconds, and then further tenth every 10 seconds. I also couldn't get autocomplete to work at all in the GTK+ file chooser there, while it was available immediately in the Windows filechooser (I wonder how hard would it be to actually use the Windows' built-in autocomplete in GTK+ - to use it with Windows native controls, you just need to call SHAutoComplete and pass the handle of the control). -- < Jernej Simončič ><><><><>< http://eternallybored.org/ > _______________________________________________ gtk-devel-list mailing list gtk-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-devel-list
