I personally use more often GObject features than CSS. CSS is more for theme authors, not application authors. A small GTK+ app doesn't really need CSS, the available GTK+ widgets are sufficient and have a decent theme with Adwaita. > I would cite some of the more unique widgets in GTK also, especially the > newer ones that might not be known by people familiar only with GTK1 and > GTK2. To better understand widgets, screenshots are needed, and a flyer is too small for screenshots (at least the three-folded A4 page). As you said, two A4 pages are not enough for describing every interesting features. Nothing prevents us from writing a brochure about GTK+ only, and another brochure about lower-level libraries, but it'd become maybe a bit too much content (that said, the FreeBSD stand has almost 10 different flyers! And in different languages). Sébastien _______________________________________________ gtk-devel-list mailing list gtk-devel-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-devel-list
