Long time ago, the Game Developer magazine published an article about ID Software and their DOOM game. In the article ID states that they used a NeXT Step machine for development with GNU GCC cross compiler. Quoting: By writing in ANSI C on NeXTStep, Id Software is able to develop and test in a true programmer’s environment. Th...

I have a Gtk.TextView control, and I'm inserting child widgets into it. I'd like to be able to have the children resize to fit the width of the TextView when the form is resized. Is there a built-in way to do this? If not, can anyone suggest a good way of writing my own? ...
How do you create a main window that fills the entire desktop without covering (or being covered by) the task bar and without being maximized? I can find the entire screen size with and set the main window accordingly with this: window = gtk.Window() screen = window.get_screen() window.resize(screen.get_width(), screen.get_height()) b...

Hi, Anyone know of anyway to add an extra button next to the general maximize, minimize, restore, and close button on the title bar in Swing GTK L&F? Thanks much. ...
For our (open source) fullscreen text editor we're changing background colors of gtk.Window, gtk.Fixed, etc. to custom colors. This works fine, but some GTK themes (e.g. Mac4Lin) define background pixmaps instead of background colors for some widgets. Those background pixmaps won't go away when calling modify_bg() methods of those widget...

These reports are much like Excel tables with usual stuff: column names, some header and footer text, maybe small image, ...

I'm trying hard to find out how to use the file chooser button properly. Reading the reference manual on GtkFileChooserButton, GtkFileChooserDialog and GtkFileChooser didn't help so far. I've tried connecting to the undocumented signal file-set of GtkFileChooserButton and calling get_filename() from here, but it seems to behave quite unr...
I've written an application using gtkmm and libpcap under Linux. Of course, gtkmm depends on GTK+. After porting it to Windows and attempting to distribute it, the feedback I received is that there are too many dependencies to install. The user has to run installers for the GTK+, gtkmm, and winpcap runtimes before they can run my littl...
I'm planning on using an embedded browser in my pygtk application and I'm debating between gtkmozembed and pywebkitgtk. Is there any compelling difference between the two? Are there any third options that I don't know about? It should be noted that I won't be using this to access content on the web. I'm mainly using it for UI purpose...
I'm creating a network animator (similar to nam, if you have used it before). Basically, I have nodes represented as small dots on a GTK+ DrawingArea, and I update the positions of these nodes and redraw the DrawingArea in a loop. The resulting animation is fast, but not smooth (there's a lot of flicker). This is probably because I fil...
I'm new to GUI programming with python and gtk, so this is a bit of a beginners question. I have a function that is called when a button is pressed which does various tasks, and a TextView widget which I write to after each task is completed. The problem is that the TextView widget doesn't update until the entire function has finished. ...
I have an AboutDialog box made in glade, but the Close button doesn't work. I don't know how to connect this button to a separate function, since it sits in a widget called dialog-action_area. Another problem is if I use the close button created by the window manager, I can't open it again because it has been destroyed. How can I cha...
Is there any way to set a widget's opacity in PyGTK? I know there's a function for windows: gtk.Window.set_opacity(0.85) but there seems to be no equivalent for arbitrary widgets. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks in advance for your help. ...
I am trying to experiment with expanding paint-like program adding custom features to it. Can you suggest a simple open source paint-like program written in C and using GTK+ library which I could expand? It should compile in Linux but also in Windows (using MinGW). Thanks.
