Post-GUADEC
Time for my yearly blog entry!
I had a really good GUADEC this year, despite the weather (it was just like home, in rainy Gothenburg). There was a lot of interesting discussions going on about the future of our toolkit and platform. It's good to see the activity increasing, like it seems to have done over the last year or so, and the whole platform from X to Cairo to GTK+ moving forward.
During GUADEC, when working on a test case for the Mac OS port of GTK+ I somehow ended up doing a hack with animated reordering of a GtkBox, I don't really remember how I got that side-tracked ;) Anyway, after some more tinkering I came up with the idea that the same trick could be used to implement a Fifteen game using a GtkTable. Micke was quick to bribe^Wencourage me into actually doing it. Here it is:
The hack subclasses GtkTable, and as you can see when the window is resized, the table manages its children just like it normally does.
