GTK+
TODO what ships with Ubuntu Quantal (12.10)?
GTK+ 3.6
ships with: Ubuntu Raring (13.04)
- GtkEntry and GtkTextView have input purposes and input hints for external input methods but do not change input themselves
- according to Company, we connect to insert-text for that
- GtkLevelBar
- GtkMenuButton
- GtkSearchEntry
GTK+ 3.8
ships with: Ubuntu Saucy (13.10)
Not many interesting new things to us here, unless you count widget-internal tickers and single-click instead of double-click to select list items (a la KDE)... and oh yeah, also widget opacity.
GTK+ 3.10
ships with: Ubuntu Trusty (14.04 LTS)
- tab character stops in GtkEntry
- GtkHeaderBar
- intended for titlebar overrides; GtkInfoBar is what I keep thinking GtkHeaderBar is
- GtkListBox
- GtkRevealer for smooth animations of disclosure triangles
- GtkSearchBar for custom search popups
- GtkStack and GtkStackSwitcher
- titlebar overrides (seems to be the hot new thing)
GTK+ 3.12
not yet in Ubuntu Utopic (14.10)
- GtkActionBar (basically like the bottom-of-the-window toolbars in Mac programs)
- gtk_get_locale_direction(), for internationalization
- more control over GtkHeaderBar
- GtkPopover
- GtkPopovers on GtkMenuButtons
- GtkStack signaling
- gtk_tree_path_new_from_indicesv() (for when we add Table if we have trees too)
