since my GUI is already a wrapper around a UI-less backend that also comes with a visually-impaired-friendly interface, i am not concerned about accessibility too much. users that are not fully-mouse-enabled will be completely unable to use the GUI interface (in much the same way that they could not use a CAD program without a drawing tool), but will be able to use a vastly more efficient text-only UI instead. the design of the GUI, plus the behaviour of the canonical applications in my "niche", make it reasonably clear to all but the most novice user that you can drag-n-drop from a list of items into an area where such items are arranged along a timeline. for now, i've added an item on the edit menu for the timeline that inserts the selected item from the clist. just how incredibly different is the replacement for CList/CTree? will we have to go through a complete paradigm shift to use it, or will porting be fairly easy? >Chances are, since the code in clist that passes the wrong value for >the value is clearly untested, if you fixed this problem (by passing >in a correct value for the format), you'd just run into other >problems. yeah, like the basic one: the data type being passed around is private to the CList. --p _______________________________________________ gtk-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
