Doubts about creating a new widget
Hello, my name is Andreu and i'm new in this list. I have a doubt about if I should create a new widget or if there is a widget that could supply my needs. I'll describe what I need: I want to make a left column in the window with flat toggle buttons (with the 100% of the column width) that, when I press one of the buttons then the buttons that are below than it should go down to give space to a icon list with a vertical scroll bar. I need it to sort the elements in a diagram editor that i'm programming. Thanks in advance :) . -- - Per la llibertat del coneixement - - Per la llibertat de la ment... - ___ gtk-list mailing list gtk-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list

Who'da thought… I monitor this list because I know I'll eventually learn something new, I am far from complete in my knowledge of stuff. For giggles I decided to take Jeff's advice and google exactly that; gtk expander screen shot, since I wasn't exactly sure what an expander was, and found this: http://www.laas02.org/?page_id=16 Its apparently some intelligent guy's blog, and the page in question is a nice little treatise on gtk widgets. Its a little better than the canonical documentation, it gives a little more background on each gtk widget, some context with code (Mono, but who cares?) and some more detail on each option, given that the information isn't already presented earlier on and not redundant. Its very brief, but did contain some info new to me. This could actually help me picture what I need to do and what I need out of a gtk widget in the future. If you need to put a particular scenario in context with regard to gtk and the rather dry documentation canon doesn't really help, you might give this guy's blog a perusal. ___ gtk-list mailing list gtk-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
Re: RE: Doubts about creating a new widget
Yes, it's the web i've found too, it's interesting :) . Now I have question about GtkExpander, I've searched in the documentation page: http://library.gnome.org/devel/gtk/stable/GtkExpander.html http://library.gnome.org/devel/gtk/stable/GtkExpander.htmlHow can I remove or hide the left icon (a triangle, or, in my case, a little square with a cross inside) that are in all the GtkExpander widgets? I can't find it here :p. (I want to put my own label widget with an icon instead of a simple text label, i know how can i do this, but if i do it then the square it's unneeded and looks ugly) Thanks in advance! :) 2010/7/12 american.communist.pa...@gmail.com On Jul 12, 2010 11:51am, Jeff Hallock jhall...@wbanda.com wrote: Hmmm….

Re: RE: Doubts about creating a new widget
I'm programming in Vala, and I've wrote this (for testing the class): menu_entry2.add_with_properties (new ToggleButton.with_label (JAJAJA), expander-size, 0); because (in theory, the expander-size property is the size of the left triangle..), but in the practice the code is equivalent to: menu_entry2.add (new ToggleButton.with_label (JAJAJA)); and the squere is still appearing. The documentation says that this property is read-only... but.. then, why is needed, i understant that exists the possibility of set it, anyone knows how?
