About

• This page documents ongoing tests of the gtk-2-24 branch on Windows.

• These observations have been obtained from building that branch at the time of commit 7c9f317b64aff73d34c61269680535a51b256ad3 and executing all demo's from the gtk-demo.exe program and all test programs from the tests directory.

• An experimental GTK+ bundle can be found here. Note that this is for testing purposes only!

• These tests have been executed on a Windows XP machine with:
  • the MS-Windows GTK+ theme with the default XP Luna Windows theme (XP Luna)
  • the MS-Windows GTK+ theme with the default XP Classic Windows theme (XP Classic)
  • the default GTK+ theme (Raleigh)
• These test have been executed on a 7 machine with:
  • the MS-Windows GTK+ theme with the default Aero Windows theme (7 Aero)
  • the MS-Windows GTK+ theme with the default Classic Windows theme (7 Classic)
• Problems observed to only manifest with a specific theme (XP Luna, XP Classic, 7 Aero, 7 Classic or Raleigh) have been marked as such. Generic problems do not have a theme marker. This might be a first indication of where a possible bug might live, the win32 GDK backend or the libwimp theme engine.
• Console output (warnings, assertions, etc) is only listed when relevant (crashes for example).

Remarks

• screenshots on this page suffer from a GTK+ bug: the 3 pixel columns on the left should be on the right, luckily this only affects the window decoration -> this was fixed in bug 631384

• not a single menu test seems to use separators, so examine tests/testactions.exe instead

• it would be helpful to integrate into Windows' recent documents (AddMRUStringW, CreateMRUListW, EnumMRUListW, FreeMRUList) instead of clobbering the user's home directory (My Documents) with a .recently-used file; or if not possible store it into the user's profile directory (Documents and Settings) where all other GTK+ data files are already stored.

gtk-demo.exe

Entry/Search Entry

• (XP Luna) type some text in the Entry and hit the Find button: embedded progressbar not themed: seems to fall back to Raleigh

  • 

• (XP Classic) embedded progressbar uses wrong color: seems to fall back to Raleigh

  • 

Pickers

• File and Folder pickers: the pathbar does not show drive letters: bug 567605

  • 

Tree View

• (XP Luna) Editable Cells: embedded progressbar not themed

  • 

• (XP Classic) worth noting that unlike progressbars embedded in an entry widget, cellrendererprogress actually uses the correct colors

tests/testcellrenderertext.exe

• (XP Classic) Right to left vertical scrollbar rendered at wrong position

  • 

tests/testcombo.exe

• (XP Classic) dropdownbutton for active combobox has a black border, is this normal?

  • 

tests/testdnd.exe

• application/x-rootwindow-drop DnD seems broken
• popup DnD seems broken (none of the 9 buttons accept the drop?)

  AlexLarsson: They seem to work the same as on X here

tests/testgtk.exe

entry

• (XP Luna) check "Show Progress": embedded progressbar not themed

key lookup

• broken in exciting ways, (a) activates the Super+A button, A doesn't activate Button 2, etc

menus

• Alt key doesn't close a menu, only Escape seems to work

tests/testoffscreen.exe

• rotated widgets look fuzzy, not sure if we can do anything about that

tests/testtoolbar.exe

• (XP Luna) the button representing hidden buttons looks weird when active as both the button itself and the chevrons are rendered as buttons

  • 

tests/testtreeedit.exe

• (XP Luna) cellrendererprogress not themed
