Hello All, I have an interest invested in an editable label widget because of an application I am working on. Because of this, I decided to work on the widget myself since the project seems to have been dropped from the list of priorities. On Bugzilla, there is an implementation that was written in 2005, but it is not acceptable because it uses more than the available signal padding slots from GtkLabel. It is quite obvious that the way to go is to use the GtkEditable interface in a new widget called something like GtkEditableLabel. However, there are two different approaches that I've come up with. One way to implement this widget would be to derive it from GtkLabel. This would allow the widget to inherit all of the code from GtkLabel, but may cause problems because of hidden data and the fact that GtkLabel already handles selections in a different way. The other option is to do what EelEditableLabel did and just derive from GtkMisc. This would add a little extra baggage because of reimplementing a few of the same features. However, I think this may be the better way to go in terms of API and speed of the widget. Does anyone have any thoughts on this issue, in one direction or the other? --- Andrew Krause _______________________________________________ gtk-list mailing list gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
