-States
-
-Default - gtk.STATE_NORMAL
-Focused - gtk.STATE_SELECTED
-Pressed - gtk.STATE_ACTIVE
-Hover - gtk.STATE_PRELIGHT
-Inactive - gtk.STATE_INSENSITIVE
-
-gtk.Button
-
-* The image should work the same of the image button
-* Need to write a theme to match the visual style
-* Cancel should never be default because you can always activate it with Esc
-* Radius should be 1/2 of the control height
-* Write a list of stock icons people should use and replace them in the theme to match our visual style
-
-sugar.Icon
-
-* Used in canvas-like views so probably an Hippo item.
-* Svg Only.
-* It should support xo colors easily.
-* Rollovers with a focus mark.
-
-sugar.IconButton
-
-* Support for SVG and png.
-* Icons should be grey scale. But might be coloured with the XO colors (svg only)
-* Size of the button is 75 pixels, size of the icon canvas is 55 and suggested icon size is around 45.
-* States, defaults:
- Hover : Black
- Pressed : Rounded rectangle 61 pixels, 10 pixels of radius, filled in selection grey
- Focused : Rounded rectangle 61 pixels, 10 pixels of radius, stroked in white 2.25 points
- Inactive. Fallbacks if no inactive icon is specified.
- Svg: Remove the fill and render the stroke in button grey
- Png: just do some effect on the pixbuf, which also work for grey icons
-* You can set an icon for each states which replace the default except for the Hover state of buttons which has rollover.
-* "palette" boolean property. If true show an arrow active immediately on click (but also on hover)
-
-sugar.ToolButton (support for rollovers)
-
-* Contains IconButton
-* There is no palette but a tooltip.
-* Normal: Button grey rounded filled rectangle
-* Inactive: Button grey rounded stroked rectangle
-
-sugar.ToggleIconButton
-
-* Toggled should be like Pressed
-* Inconsistent should be the same of Default (the action depend on the cases)
-* Pressed state and Toggled state is Selection grey
-
-sugar.ToolIconButton
-
-* Contains a ToggleIconButton
-
-gtk.CheckButton
-
-* Match the visual design, shoul be possible with just theme changes
-
-gtk.RadioButton
-
-* Exactly like CheckButton just a different indicator
-
-gtk.OptionMenu
-
-* Match the visual style. Hopefully only theme changes.
-* Add the scroll thing.
-* Groups. Either by a normal separator or a titled separator.
-* Optional support for showing just the icon from the menu (maybe, low priority)
-* Allow fixed sizing of the "button" and ellipsize the label
-
-sugar.Entry
-
-* Support for packing icons before and after the entry. Extend gtk.Entry.
-* Activate/Cancel functionality.
- Two buttons at the end to the entry and key bindings (Esc and Enter). They are visible only when there are changes.
- The icons appear only when the field is focused and the content is changed since it gained focus.
- When hitting escape revert and select all the text.
-
-gtk.ComboxBox
-
-* We miss accept/cancel functionality. Probably patch gtk to allow to replace the entry in the combo box with sugar.Entry.
-
-sugar.SearchEntry
-
-* Use sugar.Entry
-* Search button on the left. Clicking should focus the entry.
-* Cancel button (Esc) on the right, always visible when there is text in the entry. Clicking it will clear the text and focus the textfield.
-* Activate button (Enter) on the right displayed when the content of the text field changed from the last focus or activation.
-* While activating:
- the Activate button becomes a Spinner.
- clicking the close button also cancel the search.
-* When activation is completed:
- The spinner goes away.
- We *don't* clear the entry but we select the text.
-* Search can either be incremental or on activation. For incremental there is no Accept button. start_spinning and stop_spinning to control the spin icon. start would only spin for an amount of time decided by the widget itself (and documented).
-* The suggestions list is provided by the application. Need to figure out which api to use, either model or signal based.
-* Default implementation of suggestions which automatically save the latest searches.
-
-sugar.DateSelector
-sugar.DateComboBox (lower priority)
-
-* Pluggable calendar implementation to support different kind of calendars (localization).
-* Might reuse gtk.Calendar. We should unify month/year selectors and accellerate the movement gradually.
-
-gtk.SpinButton
-
-* Make it match the visual design, hopefully just theme changes
-
-sugar.ToolItem
-
-* Optional label, either text or icon
-* Used for example to have a label near a SpinButton. Clicking on the label should focus the spin button.
-
-gtk.ProgressBar
-
-* Make it match the visual design, hopefully just theme changes.
-* For determinate progress bars should we always pulse to show that there is activity (power consumption? necessary feedback?)
-* Do not use text inside the progress bar
-
-sugar.Spinner
-
-* pulse() call to keep it running with a timeout
-* stop()
-
-gtk.Range (or sugar.Slider?)
-
-* Property to show the fill in white color, probably default on.
-* Draw the discrete steps.
-* For colored sliders, subclass gtk.Range and add a gradient.
-
-sugar.LevelIndicator
-
-* Set the number of blocks
-* Set the level as percentage
-* Property for discrete or not
-* We can probably use a GtkAdjustment for most of the above.Rollovers
-
-
-gtk.TextView
-
-gtk.ScrolledWindow
-
-* Theme it to match the visual.
-
-sugar.ScrolledWindow
-
-* Support for markers. Line as default and optional support for other shapes (star for bookmarks, circles for xos...). Generic way of add marks and keep them updated (observer?)
-
-gtk.Expander
-
-gtk.Separator
-
-sugar.GroupBox
-
-* just a container
-* set_title and set_title_widget (checkbox, radiobutton...)
-* different color and separator under title
-
-gtk.TreeView
-
-gtk.Notebook
-
-* Expand to fill the whole space by default but property to turn it off
-* Switching tabs with the little arrows should page
-
-Palettes in ToolIconButton, IconButton
-* Inmediately on rollover, show the black background.
-* After a very short delay, show the primary state (name of the action and key shortcut).
-* After a bigger delay, show the popup secondary state.
-* Could be animated.
-* Menu Items would go on the top and then the free-form rollover content.
-* The popup would be a gtk.Window that contains a Label, a MenuShell, an hippo.Canvas (or whatever) and finally a button bar (OK/Cancel).
-* The popup will have a setPrimaryState(label, accelerator) method. For action buttons would be a MenuItem, for the others would only be a Label.
-* The primary state should already have the same width as the secondary state and the expandable areas.
-* Primary states appear and disappear automatically (with a short delay). A click outside makes it disappear instantly.
-* Secondary states appear after a delay, or with a single click on the icon.
-* Secondary disappears with the esc key, clicking outside the popup or clicking on a button inside.
-
-Toolbox
-* When an activity opens, the activity tab should be opened and the focus on the activity title.
-* We must provide an activity tab in the toolbox and would be good to also provide an standard Edit tab.
-
-Grab key
-* We probably will need the grab mode.
-* Highlight the scrollbar in the view the pointer is (the view that will scroll when moving the pointer).
-
-Clipboard
-* Window manager to handle in an invisible window in every corner and forward the events when they are not in the corner, or use XEvIE (X Event Interception Extension).
