Hello Milosz,
Thanks for you thoughts, I will do what I can to accommodate them.
My initial thought was to reduce all input images by a fixed factor
supplied by the caller (I would use 3% for my own application), along
with a fixed spacing between images again supplied by the caller (again,
10px for my own application). If I can figure out how to use a
user-supplied renderer, I will of course incorporate it.
My own style is to develop from the base code, and my current thinking
revolves around GtkImage, GtkScrollbar and GtkTable, but I need to think
through the issues, and try a few experiments, before I can come to a
well-informed decision.
For what it is worth, I am using Code::Blocks 10.05 in a Windows 7
64-bit environment (gah!) while fighting issues on multiple fronts. Once
I have "defeated the enemy(ies)", I will be looking to port to Ubuntu.
Then, and only then, might I have something that might be considered
useful. My ideal, which is probably unrealisable, is to have something
that could be incorporated into Gtk itself. (Me, ambitious? Yes, but I
have got to have *something* to aim at!)
Best Regards,
Phil Hart

Just want to throw in my "vote": I also would be very much for having
such a widget, but still leaving the thumbnail rendering routine open
to implementation (with a standard default renderer present).
To be a little preemptive: In case someone says nuh-uh too fast: I've
never coded with Cocoa, but I imagine that the/a CoverFlow widget
exists in the library and doesn't need to be reimplemented each time.
These days, thumbnails could be used for quite a lot of stuff.
Also, as a last, completely intuitive and at the moment not
rationalizeable thought (I'll try it to flesh out in an upcoming
message): Please, please don't base the code for the ThumbView widget
on anything Nautilus. Please.

Milosz

Hello Everybody,
I want (need?) a scrollable (both vertical and horizontal) widget
for displaying thumbnails which also re-arranges them depending on
how many thumbnails wide is chosen in an up-down counter. (Gigapan
stitcher users will know what I am talking about.)
Is there anything similar already around - if not, I will write
one (and if I regard it as good enough, I will also publish the
source code).
Many Thanks In Advance,
Phil
