Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: None Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Saar Korren (slugfiller) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: GTK 2.6 compatibility Initial Comment: Believe it or not, synfig 0.61.09 core is fully compatible with GTK 2.6, while synfig studio uses only a single 2.8-exclusive import: AboutDialog::set_wrap_license. That's right, the -only- thing preventing 2.6 compatibility is a tiny detail in the about dialog (which no one really looks at anyway). Now I realize that to many recent developers, backwards compatibility has gone the way of optimization and software rendering. It's a pity (with the other two as well), but I can't change the way people think. However, I doubt even someone who just wrote his first "Hello World" in freaking VB would think so little of it so as to weigh it below a tiny detail no one would ever notice. So, my request is to have the use of AboutDialog::set_wrap_license in synfig studio. Its presence doesn't add anything substantial, while its absence opens up synfig to a whole new range of users. I personally think it's a no-brainer, but if you still think synfig really really needs that in its about box, then at least provide a branched build with that if-def`ed out or something to that extent. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=757419&aid=2781924&group_id=144022 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Crystal Reports - New Free Runtime and 30 Day Trial Check out the new simplified licensign option that enables unlimited royalty-free distribution of the report engine for externally facing server and web deployment. http://p.sf.net/sfu/businessobjects _______________________________________________ Synfig-devl mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/synfig-devl
