Hi all, in preparation of the upcoming release, I renewed the test installers: http://download.geany.org/snapshots/geany-1.28nightly20160617_setup.exe http://download.geany.org/snapshots/geany-plugins-1.28nightly20160617_setup.exeNice! Didn't test yet, but still nice.
There is still the ugly Adwaita theme. I didn't and I won't play with themes. If someone wants a specific alternative theme included and enabled and there is some general agreement, I'm fine with it.Maybe we should just wait a little further, apparently in 3.22 (?) they work on some Windows theming and integration.
But I noticed a new bug: with each start of Geany, the messages window will be shown a little lower and at some point it is finally hidden because its position is at or below the status bar. No idea what is causing this, GTK3 is always surprising as it seems.Hum, interesting, we did have such a report one day, but I never was able to find out what was doing it. https://sourceforge.net/p/geany/bugs/634/ But that was GTK2 and the other direction (editor shrinking).
We should decide soon whether we want to use GTK2 or GTK3 based Windows release binaries.I would say that if there aren't any advantages of the GTK3 build (and in contrary, there seem to be some issues), it's better to stick with GTK2.
Agreed, seems more reasonable to stick to something that works, especially if GTK3 doesn't give us something important.
IIRC the reason why we started playing with GTK3 on Windows was the HiDPI issue with GTK2.
Though Jiří already said in March, it's probably not so important and better to go with GTK2 as long as there are issues with GTK3.
So, I'd say also let's use GTK2 for the upcoming release and we'll say what happens post-1.28.
GTK2 test installers will follow either later today or at the weekend.
