I'm not sure if this mailing list allows attachments but I've attached an image of the built app. However, I'll describe the attachment in case it doesn't get through. It shows a simple dialog box. In the bottom, right-hand corner is a gtk stock "OK" button (i.e. complete with its button icon). Above the button is some text saying "The button was clicked!" To the left of the text is a light-bulb icon (GTK_STOCK_DIALOG_INFO). My attached example was built against gtk+ ver 2.20.
Why did I need to build it?? Because my recent work has been with gtk ver 2.24 and I seem to be having a lot of problems with stock images. Some of them get found, some of them don't - even though often, they seem to be in the same physical folder. For example, if I build the same sample with 2.24, the button icon gets displayed but the light bulb doesn't. A couple of months ago I raised this issue on gtk-devel-list and I was advised to install the HICOLOR icon theme (which I did) although to be honest, it didn't improve matters.
Has there been a significant change in the way stock items get handled between v2.20 and 2.24? I'm only asking because yesterday (over on gtk-devel-list) I noticed a post which suggested that button images / menu images etc are in the process of being deprecated. So while that's happening I'm wondering if I need to #define something to make this carry on working the way it used to work??
