ellipsize expander label
Hi, Is it possible to ellipsize expander label? The simple approach does not work for me. expander = gtk_expander_new(NULL); label = gtk_label_new(some longer text); gtk_label_set_ellipsize(GTK_LABEL(label), PANGO_ELLIPSIZE_END); gtk_expander_set_label_widget(GTK_EXPANDER(expander), label); It shows just ... even if there is enough room for the whole text. BTW, is there any good documentation how the stuff with size-request and size-allocate works?

How to make a simple beep?
Hey All, I'm running under Ubuntu 8.10 and want to make a simple beep -- like the Windows Beep function which takes a frequency (in Hz) and a duration (in milliseconds). Does anyone have a place to point me?

setuid / setgid
I hope this is the right list to post this query. An application that I've built many times before is now suddenly refusing to run. I see an error message saying:- Gtk-WARNING: This process is currently running setuid or setgid This is not a supported use of GTK+. You must create a helper program. Refusing to initialze GTK+. It gives a link to a web page for more information (http://www.gtk.org/setuid.html) but to be honest, it doesn't explain the situation very well. It doesn't explain what a setuid program is, nor why a program that was never previously a setuid program would suddenly become one. The same program (i.e. the same source code) builds and runs fine on a different machine. Is it possible that an environment variable has changed or something? Or might I need to upgrade GTK+ or something like that? Thanks, John ___ gtk-app-devel-list mailing list gtk-app-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-app-devel-list
tuning widgets base size
Hi, list. I've noticed many widgets calculate its base size relying on font sizes (font size, ascent, descent...) of its pango context. Thus I've tried to change PangoFontDescription of widgets in this way just after widget creation: context = gtk_widget_get_pango_context ( wg ); descr1 = pango_context_get_font_description ( context ); descr2 = pango_font_description_copy(descr1) ; int size = pango_font_description_get_size(descr2); size = ( size * 2 ) / 3; pango_font_description_set_size(descr2, size); pango_context_set_font_description(context, descr2); But this doesn't work. What is the right solution of my problem? Finaly I want make widgets smaller than default widgets, like toolbox widgets in The GIMP. Thanks. ___ gtk-app-devel-list mailing list gtk-app-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-app-devel-list

The label will only request size for the ellipsis if you dont manually set a size request - you could just use a value... ...or... if you want an expand to fit label... I dont know if this is documented anywhere but just take a look at the size_request() and size_allocate_after() functions here: http://svn.gnome.org/viewvc/glade3/trunk/gladeui/glade-editor-property.c?revision=2034view=markup (note the calculation for the child label allocation will be alot simpler if you just wrap it alone in an hbox or something). Its a little evil and hackish but the technique will give you expand to fit allocation ellipsis (although personally I've only tried it for word wrapping).

GtkCalendar
Hello people. I wonder how to solve this elegantly: If I first set the day of the GtkCalendar, I sometimes hit an error depending on the number of weeks in the following month. If I set the month first, I have the same problem, depenging on the day selected previously. In both cases, the error message is: Gtk-CRITICAL **: calendar_invalidate_day_num: assertion `row != -1' failed I can understand why the error appears, but I don't see how to remedy it. Do I have to produce some code to test if the date/month I want to set will appear on a correct row? Seems to me it is the responsability of the widget to provide a way to validly change in any order. John PS: also tried to change the properties in one gtk_object_set, but that gives the same result. Changing the structure's variables directly doesn't produce an update of the display. Freeze and thaw are deprecated, and could've been a solution. ___ gtk-app-devel-list mailing list gtk-app-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-app-devel-list
