P.S. Are we all still agreed to using old 3.8.1 version of Glade?
After 2.x, I'm using Glade only to generate object templates in a test file, and edit the real glade files with Geany. It's much easier.
Thoughts?
3.6.7 does not generate noise in the form of default properties and attributes. It does reorder the size gropus, but Geany uses none. So, this version can possibly be used to cleanup geany.glade. A diff -uw is ~8k lines, 90% of which are removed default properties/attributes.
It's not good for visual editing, though, since sometimes the hbox and vbox display is swapped, :) and "Add widget here" is disabled quite often, for reasons unknown.
No 3.x version is any good IMHO, so we may just mark geany.glade with the first version that supports all objects we are using, and _change our policy_ to "edit with Geany". That's what we do anyway.
