Changes for version 0.55
- Features:
- Added a fully functional tutorial program (a simple music database) which makes use of a lot of simple and advanced Gtk2::Ex::FormFactory features. Not documented yet, but nevertheless a good example to learn how Gtk2::Ex::FormFactory works. More details in tutorial/README.
- On demand loading of widget modules saves some memory
- Gtk2::Ex::FormFactory::Context
- pass object aggregation information to define dependencies between objects. This way all dependent objects update automatically if their parent object changes.
- defining constant attribute accessors is now possible, e.g. for simple Combo presets not changing at runtime.
- new method set_object_attr() sets an specific application object attribute and triggers corresponding GUI updates
- Gtk2::Ex::FormFactory::List
- new attribute "selects_object" for lists representing an index of objects to select one of them. The corresponding widgets are updated automatically once the list selection changes.
- new attribute "visible" to control visibility of columns
- new attribute "no_header" to suppress list headers
- new attribute "attr_select_column" to have specific column values instead of selected indices in the "attr_select" attribute
- Gtk2::Ex::FormFactory::Label: declare an arbitrary Label widget as the label of another widget, so this label is deactivated/activated together with the assigned widget automatically, even in complex layouts.
- Gtk2::Ex::FormFactory::Popup: additional data model, two dimensional array to define ordered key/value pairs.
- Gtk2::Ex::FormFactory::Window: title may be controlled by an application object.
- Gtk2::Ex::FormFactory::Widget: moved get_widget() from Gtk2::Ex::FormFactory to here, so it's available for all widgets, not only in a FormFactory.
- Bugfixes:
- Removed ok_hook() from Gtk2::Ex::FormFactory::Intro documentation, which was never implemented that way.
- Tooltips on combo entries didn't work.
