This is not a troll, only a trawler as in fishing boat. I found the
discourse on “traditional file chooser” quite interesting and
informative. I'm using glade 3.18.3 and I'm able to do useful work so
possibly I'm off subject.
Point 1
In glade I can select GtkMenuItem and GtkImageMenuItem and when I look
at the GTK+ 3 Reference Manual the latter is depreciated. It's working
great so I wonder what depreciated actually implies? At some time in the
future will it vanish and working software will fail or simply fail to
compile on the newer distribution?
Point 2
Lots of acronyms were mentioned. Qt was one and it's in the LMDE
repositories. Wiki has a long list of GUIs in
“https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_widget_toolkits” but only a few
could be of interest. In any case there would be a learning curve to use
any them and maybe no glade which greatly simplifies Gtk for me. Is
there an evaluation on these alternative GUIs?
Regards Ian.
