There's no 'plan' for this. Adding such a hint to the enum would be pretty easy, of course. Note that these hints are currently not used for anything in practice. No application (that I know of) sets them, and no input method (that I know of) looks at them. How would your new vertical writing hint be set or used ? _______________________________________________ gtk-devel-list mailing list gtk-devel-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-devel-list
