Top middle is default theme and top right is win32 theme. In the second row I have overridden the default "width in chars" for the entry widgets for both themes. The main problem I have is that it seems all the themes I have tried this far are imposing minimum sizes that are unacceptable. In a post to this list in 2017 subject: Re: How to get a "traditional" file-chooser one person said it far better than I could with "Screen space is a premium, a pretty UI is not". I really want to move forward with Gtk3 and I don't object to making adjustments to get that goal. Is there a global way to stop Gtk3 and its themes from making any changes to the sizes specified in the Glade file? At this point I am guessing the answer is no. So I see that probably have to find a theme that doesn't change sizes or learning how to customize a theme. Does anyone know of a theme that doesn't have this size modifying behavior? Note for Adwaita to work fully, you need the adwaita-icon-themes package installed at the right place, and you would likely need librsvg (specifically, the GDK-Pixbuf svg loader that comes with librsvg, which clearly will depend on the librsvg DLL). I am using msys2 on Windows 10. I believe that the msys2 installer along with |pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-gtk3| |got all I need. I see a tree under C:\msys64\mingw64\share\icons\Adwaita| | | Hope this helps It does. Many thanks.

I really need help with themes and setting css items in program
I have been using gtkmm 2.22 for many years but would really like to move on to Gtk3. I have made a few attempts over the years but the thing that always stops me is dealing with themes in the Gtk3 world. A simple hello world program produces ugly oversized widgets. Over the last few days I have put some effort into learning gtk3 theme tampering and have made quite a bit of progress. Perhaps the biggest roadblock for me is that most (if not all) of the Gtk3 themes override widget size and usually make them bigger than what what I specified in my Glade file. Is there a way to stop that behavior on a global level or will I just have to tamper with theme settings for things on a more individual level? From a post to this list 4 years ago I have learned that the win32 theme is built in now. The answer then was to tamper with gtk-3.0/gtk.css but I don't find this at all in my msys2 setup on Windows 10. I do find C:\msys64\mingw64\share\themes and there is a Default\gtk-3.0 but would be Adwaita, wouldn't it? Is there a css file for win32 or is it built into the code? If there is no css file for the default or win32, how can I do this within the program? I am slowly finding info about working with css and have learned a little tampering but I find nothing about doing this in the program. I am really stuck here and would greatly appreciate any help with this. Thanks. Damon Register ___ gtk-list mailing list gtk-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
