Category: None Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 7 Private: No Submitted By: Saar Korren (slugfiller) >Assigned to: Genete (genete) 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. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Saar Korren (slugfiller) Date: 2009-04-26 23:29 Message: Wow, that must have been the worlds fastest response... Thanks in advance, then! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Paul Wise (pabs3) Date: 2009-04-26 23:14 Message: set_wrap_license is only used when synfigstudio is compiled against a version of GTK+ that supports it. The only binary builds we provide are the Windows ones, I guess you want them to be compiled against an old version of GTK+? I assume that is the case and am assigning the ticket to our Windows build maintainer. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=757419&aid=2781924&group_id=144022 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download Intel® Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.
