Hi,

GtkList is limited to a small number of items, because it uses an X
window to put them inside, and X windows have 16-bit signed integers
for coordinates. So you are looking at 32K pixels maximum for
GtkList. GtkCList avoids this problem.

GTK 2 has an extremely elaborate hack to make GdkWindow emulate an
infinite (well, 32-bit) coordinate space, so removes this
limitation. But it's sufficiently complicated and has enough
architectural implications that it can't be backported to 1.2.

Havoc
