The spin button in gtk3 has already been bastardized from its > original mouse/kbd/space-friendly form. yes, because 6x6 pixel targets are *sooooo* mouse friendly. not. if you're gifted by an overabudance of fine motor skills, you'll also want to reduce all pointer targets to 2x2 pixels; if, on the other hand, you're like the rest of the human inhabitants of this planet, you'll see that small pointer targets are *bad*, and that even before touch enters the equation. to be honest, the current spin button is better, but "designed for touch". no, not yet. > add TouchSpinButton or something and > leave the old one alone. I have a brilliant idea instead: why don't you write your own widget if you are relying on specific appearance and behaviour? ciao, Emmanuele. -- W: http://www.emmanuelebassi.name B: http://blogs.gnome.org/ebassi/ _______________________________________________ gtk-devel-list mailing list gtk-devel-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-devel-list
