[18 Jan 2004] Default/Classic "groove" border is wrong on X11 --
use "alt" borders instead.
[16 Mar 2005] -- request from Damon Courtney -- "split" menubuttons.
Extra features needed in ttk::menubutton: "-command" option,
"identify" method.
[8 Mar 2005] -- ttk::progressbar -- use [$pb start] / [$pb stop].
[$pb start] should take arguments to control speed of cylon block.
[9 Mar 2005] -- possible bug: [ttk::frames] with custom styles
don't compute reqwidth properly; fails to account for -padding
(see nbtest.tcl);
[10 minutes later]: Nope, was apparently mistaken; it does work.
[2 Mar 2005] -- AllocateResource --
allow TK_OPTION_COLOR, other options to have NULL defaults.
[20 Dec 2004] - winnative theme -- toolbar buttons --
should have "thin" borders, not "thick" ones.
Same probably goes for labels too.
[3 Oct 2004]: Treeview -- drag scrollbar down really fast -- can scroll
"past end" of widget. [fixed?]
[28 Sep 2004]: Swap argument order in TTK_DrawLayout: layout, state, d
[done]
[28 Sep 2004]: element "geometryProc" now "sizeProc"; eventually
need to get around to updating all the element definitions.
[21 Sep 2004]: It's now safe to redefine layouts; make this legal.
(plus fix memory leak). Still can't redefine elements though.
[19 Sep 2004]: Dump Tk_Draw3DBorder() and related routines -- it does
the Wrong Thing on Windows more often than not. (LIGHT_GC and DARK_GC
don't match System3DLight and System3DDarkShadow; "extra" border color
(??? what does Windows call this???) not chosen correctly; draws
wrong pattern for entry fields, listboxes, etc.) Better to just
do this by hand.
[19 Sep 2004]: DrawEdge() actually uses 4-color borders, not 3-color.
This causes a(nother) notebook glitch if winnative theme is used when
"Windows XP style" is selected. In "Windows Classic style", the 4th
color (inner upper/left) matches the frame color so the glitch isn't
visible. Fix later.
[17 Sep 2004]: To seriously think about: interactive test harness
for regression-testing look and feel.
CONSIDER: Possibly: avoid setting 'pressed', 'active' in disabled state,
so themes don't need to check 'active !disabled'. OTOH, there's
no reason an element can't be active and disabled at the same time,
and some themes might want to treat that specially.
[16 Sep 2004]: Make sure 'disabled' state properly supported in all
themes. (Should override 'active' and 'pressed' feedback, others)
Consider: add 'readonly' state support for checkbuttons, others.
[4 Mar 2005]: Definitely add 'readonly' support for checkbuttons --
useful for output-only checkbuttons (e.g., "checklist" progress windows).
[10 Sep 2004] altTheme BorderElement -- separate into BorderElement
and DefaultRing, or separate BorderElement and ButtonBorderElement.
TTK_StateMapLookup -- don't need interp parameter or error message.
Make TTK_StateMap type "more opaque".
[2 Sep 2004]: Request from JH: Explicit support in notebook widget
for "fattening" tabs; expand selected tab's parcel to overlap neighbors.
[done, 13 Sep 2004]
[4 Sep 2004] Layout engine: TODO:
Remove TTK_STICK_ALL alias for TTK_FILL_BOTH; redundant and confusing [done]
TTK_EXPAND confusing, possibly get rid of it;
expand elements with no PACK_* bits set and/or last in group instead
Theme engine routines: 'recordPtr' parameter ought to be a "void *",
not (ClientData).
[29 Aug 2004]: Consider: use focus ring in notebook tabs in all themes
(except OSX, classic).
[18 Aug 2004]: Requests from Jeff:
+ add margins around check/radiobutton indicators (esp. XP theme)
[done, JH,PT]
+ [style theme use] should return current theme [done]
+ Need separator widget. [done]
+ Make scrollbars autodisable when full [done, JH]
[5 Jul 2004]: Looks like XDrawRectangle() emulation on MacOSX does *not*
have the off-by-one glitch. Which makes it incompatible with the
real XDrawRectangle, which does...
[5 Jul 2004]: combobox: BUG: MacOSX: "pull-down" interaction doesn't
work, only "pop-down" does.
[1 Jul 2004]: combobox binding quirk (shared w/readonly BWidget combobox):
Pulldown listbox; drag outside listbox; release: Listbox stays posted
(this may or may not be right). Press inside listbox: selection "blinks"
to pressed item, then reverts back (This is definitely wrong).
Oakley combobox cancels listbox in step 1.
[1 Jul 2004]: combobox: BUG: CBListbox <Destroy> binding doesn't clean up
the right variable. [fixed]
[1 Jul 2004]: Combobox (on Windows) BUG:
Press; drag over listbox; drag off of listbox; release;
click scrollbar thumb & drag up & down -- listbox selection changes.
(Check on Unix). Probable cause: at this point, combobox has
grab, listbox never got <ButtonPress> event, but did get <B1-Motion>.
Listbox probably confused. (Oakley combobox does the same thing).
BUG: Windows: post listbox (popdown or pulldown and drag away);
click on another window; other window activates, listbox stays
posted until main app gets keypress. Can even end up below main window.
(Probably due to [grab -global] not working the same on Windows)
(Oakley and BWidget comboboxes don't have this problem --
what do they do differently?)
[Maybe fixed: unpost when listbox gets <FocusOut> event]
[That seems to be what BWidget and Oakley boxes do, too]
BUG: Combobox on Windows: Possible to iconify toplevel while listbox
is active. [Maybe fixed, see above]
BUG: Combobox on Windows: main toplevel is inactive (unfocused)
when listbox posted (BWidget too, but not Oakley. Oakley combobox
leaves focus on entry widget, passes <Key-Up> and <Key-Down>
to listbox directly. Other keys handled by entry (and listbox
loses curselection, which is probably not right))
[from JH on clt -- same issue as above]
<412ADA9C.60609@removethis.activestate.com>
| [...] It still has the issue (on Windows) that when
| the toplevel drops down, the host toplevel loses focus. Note
| that this doesn't happen with the win32 combobox control. I'm
| not 100% sure how they manage this trick (I have a few guesses,
| but am not sure).
BUG: Grabs in general are problematic.
[30 Jun 2004]: For consideration: Make -xscrollcommand, -yscrollcommand
command prefixes instead of script prefixes?
| jenglish Right now -xscrollcommand is a string, to
| which additional arguements are appended "as if" they were
| list elements; and the result is intepreted as a script.
| jenglish My proposed change: -xscrollcommand is
| interpreted as a list, to which additional arguments are
| appended; and the result is invoked as a command
| tclguy jenglish - I fully support that
| tclguy jenglish - I suspect that is a remnant of the
| days pre-8.0 when lists weren't real structures
| tclguy jenglish - I know similar things need fixing in the core still
[29 Jun 2004]: Clam theme: Frame widgets: Need to support -borderwidth 0.
(Probable solution: treat zero borderwidth as no border, nonzero as 2).
(Add note in "Programmer-visible changes", subheading "theme-dependant
stuff").
[26 Jun 2004]: Entry widget binding bug:
press, drag back and forth slowly -- behaves one way
press, drag back and forth quickly -- behaves another way.
Sort this out. (Probably cause: "slowly" behaviour
is what it's intended to do, but dragging the mouse
too quickly skips past a transition state in entry::ExtendTo)
[fixed]
[17 Jun 2004]:
Entry: POSSIBLY: after configuring -exportselection false,
do nothing in LostSelection. Maybe.
Possibly: Let FetchSelection return data even if -exportselection false
(user could have explicitly used [selection own])
BUG: If -exportselection false, still display selection. [fixed]
[17 Jun 2004]:
Make sure EntryPlaceTextLayout is called whenever anything that
affects it is changed; [$entry xview] isn't the only place that
requires up-to-date information.
bind TEntry <<TraverseIn>> { %W selection range 0 end; %W icursor end }
[14 Jun 2004]: WidgetDestroyed -- check Tcl_InterpDeleted(corePtr->interp),
other Possibly Bad Things. (maybe).
[12 Jun 2004] Argh. WidgetSubcommandProcs take arguments in
different order than Tcl_ObjCmdProcs (closure last vs. closure first).
Sigh.
[8 Jun 2004]: Possibly: treat "-state active" the same as "-state normal".
[8 Jun 2004]: TraceVariable -- Variable trace procedures should
return 'void' for now, since we're not doing anything with the
return value.
[May 2004]: leaving -width option default blank causes
BWidget incompatibilities (breaks Label). Setting a default
overrides theme defaults. Decide which is more important.
[30 Apr 2004]: dkf_fontSel dialog problems:
sample text frame sets -width and -height options,
which TFrame doesn't use. (Rationale: height and width
of a frame are normally controlled by geometry manager
based on children. This turns out to be wrong:
[grid/pack propagate $f 0] can be used to make the
frame's -width/height take precedence. (only do this
in FrameConfigure though, otherwise layout blinks.) [fixed 11 May 2004]
dkf_fontSel also uses resource-queries on scratch widgets
(like BWidget does) for label -font resource; this breaks. [fixed 10 May 2004]
[23 Apr 2004]: TODO: Add <<Invoke>> bindings for TLabel and TLabelframe
(set focus to next focusable sibling / first focusable child).
[5 Apr 2004, JH]: "change the padding of a tnotebook dynamically doesn't
force a resize of the children"
22 Apr 2004: Focus problems w/notebook widget: mnemonic activation
can leave focus on unmapped widget.
Consider: Pass 'state' to element geometry procs too?
Progressbars should not take focus.
[3 Apr 2004] Vertical progress bars should grow up, not down.
[19 Mar 2004]: Documentation: consistentize terminology:
+ the "-command" option is a _script_ which is _evaluated_.
Also: _script prefix_ (-xscrollcommand, &c),
_script template_ (-validatecommand &c).
Consider: maybe -xscrollcommand should be a _command prefix_;
+ Widgets have "options" (not "resources", that's an Xt thing...)
+ Decide one way or the other "tfoobutton" or "foobutton".
+ [20 Jun 2004]: always use bold (or italic, decide) for manpage xrefs.
(TMML keywords index: idea: specify a list of common prefixes
to strip when sorting, so eg "TTK_Box" is sorted under "B",
not under "T" with all the rest of the "TTK_" stuff.
Also: Remove duplicates in column 2.)
[Configure] -- any way to specify a minimum Tk dependency in configure script?
[20 Feb 2004]: generic/layout.c(BuildLayout): Don't Panic. [fixed,31Dec2004]
[14 Mar 2004]: menubuttons -- popdown -- should stay in {pressed active} state
until the menu is dismissed.
Oddity: On XP: click menubutton (tile or standard) to post menu;
move mouse away; other widgets still get <Enter> and <Leave> events
until the mouse enters the menu; then others stop hot-tracking.
[14 Mar 2004] TODO: double-check menubutton state transitions on X11.
[Checked; they were wrong. Still are, actually, but it's
difficult to get this right without cooperation from the [menu]
widget implementation.]
[14 Mar 2004]: pixmapTheme.c -- need to do error-checks re: missing
images earlier.
[14 Mar 2004]: Consider using Tcl_BackgroundError() where appropriate.
(Note: it's probably not appropriate during <Expose> processing,
unless the error condition can be fixed or disabled.)
[22 Feb 2004]: Don't use SystemButtonFace as default background
in classic or other non-Windows themes (unless you also use
SystemWindowText as default foreground) -- some high-contrast
color schemes use white-on-black. [done]
[21 Feb 2004]: TODO: work out sensible fallback algorithm for
layouts and styles, so users can define custom styles without
having to worry about every possible theme.
[21 Feb 2004]: Display/layout glitch: demo program, XP theme:
"Close button" in "Widget states" dialog is the wrong size when
first created. Reselecting the theme fixes.
Suspicion: perhaps GetThemePartSize() doesn't work when the window
is not realized, so initial geometry wrong? But why just this widget?
Another bug in [grid]? [Probably fixed, 16 Mar 2004] [Fix confirmed]
@@@ [10 Feb 2004] Revisit label/compound element: this is starting
to really bother me.
@@@ [10 Feb 2004] New bug: label/compound element:
-anchor and -width do not mix. [fixed]
@@@ TODO: SOON: Plug all memory leaks. Lots of known ones,
possibly a few unknown ones too.
@@@ BUG: <<ThemeChanged>> messages not processed if widget is not realized.
(See also: bug #835997) [fixed, 16 Mar 2004].
@@@ Issue: Don't even think about using the Tile widgets on a PseudoColor
visual. All hell breaks loose. (This is another instance of the
resource management problem affecting fonts and images).
[Should be fixed now, 12 Feb 2004]
Issue: May need state-based dynamic widget settings too
(most useful: -image and -cursor).
AllocateResource: Tk_GetFont() calls are extremely expensive
unless the font is already in use. Using named fonts doesn't help.
Same is probably true for colors and borders, and is definitely
true for images. [Should be fixed now, 12 Feb 2004]
@@@ Investigate performance issues. TWS is getting to be
as slow as GTK+. [see above] [much better now]
Problem: [style map TNotebook -borderwidth { focus 2 {} 1 }]
doesn't do the right thing: will normally use the default 1
when computing geometry, which will not allocate enough space
for when the widget has focus. Possible solutions:
+ special-case: add -maxborderwidth option
+ add 'geometry' state bit, user can specify { geometry 2 focus 2 {} 1}
Possibly: Issue <<WorldChanged>>, <<ThemeChanged>> virtual events
[Q: Can we register a C-language event handler for these?]
[A: Yes.]
[done; but see BUG, above] [above BUG fixed now]
@@@ NEED: introspection/debugging features
(what elements make up a layout, what resources get set, &c).
@@@ [style default/map] -- make sure changes get propagated to ElementImpl's.
[style map] -- validate statemaps [done]
@@@ change TTK_LAYOUT_AROUND to TTK_LAYOUT_BORDER; update WidgetGeometry()
to use TTK_LAYOUT_BORDER-tagged element to set internal padding.
[On second thought, don't. May not be necessary]
@@@ Layout engine BUG: TTK_LAYOUT_INSIDE, TTK_LAYOUT_BORDER nodes
must be the sole children of their parent node, otherwise
reqsize calculation is wrong. (probable cause of problem:
INSIDE/BORDER flags lack a packing specification).
[ Fixed now, 28 Jan 2004 ]
@@@ TTK_LayoutFindNode, [$sb identify], &c -- need a way to identify
nodes by name instead of class. [??? Probably not needed anymore ???]
~~ Layout engine:
+ Reimplement; the current design is subtly but fatally flawed.
[ done, 28 Jan 2004 ]
+ Change ElementSpec draw procedure to take a TTK_Box instead
of separate x, y, width, height arguments. [done, 9 Mar 2004]
~~ General:
+ Use TK_OPTION_STRING instead of TK_OPTION_END for TTK_OPTION_ANY [done]
+ Need per-engine cleanup procedures. [done, PT]
+ Rethink resource allocation (AllocateResource,DeallocateResources)
+ [style configure] should schedule a WorldChanged call
+ WorldChanged handler should reload all elements [done]
+ Need: windows-native theme (use native (non-XP-theme) widgets) [started]
+ Need: MacOSX-native theme (ditto).
+ Need to support both "native/default" L&F and highly-customized L&F
(Ex: http://www.iit.demokritos.gr/~petasis/Tcl/PeculiarButtons.gif)
+ Consider: distinguish "engines" from "themes" a la Gnome --
"engines" provide specific element implementations, themes
bind them to individual elements. Rationale: a theme
may want to pick up e.g., borders from altTheme,
other elements drawn using pixmap element from pixmapTheme,
frame borders from classic theme.
(Maybe not; an "engine" is just a package that defines elements
or element factories, no need to make this a first-class entity).
~~ Frames, labelframes:
+ Need -width, -height options. These don't have any effect
if you use [pack] or [grid], but may be useful for [place] [done]
+ [13 Feb 2005] labelframe: min req. size doesn't account for label.
[Fixed]
~~ Buttons, checkbuttons, radiobuttons:
+ Label widgets should take -relief option, possibly -borderwidth
+ rename 'compound' element to 'label', 'label' => 'text' [done]
+ add -width resource to text element; negative -width => minimum. [done]
+ [$checkbutton configure -variable foo] does not set state [fixed]
+ [$label configure -textvariable foo] does not update -text [fixed]
+ alt theme: focus ring should go around text (in check/radio buttons)
(maybe we can get away with not doing this...)
[fixed, but this broke -anchor option]
+ check/radiobutton -anchor option does not work in alt theme.
(Can either get focus ring in the right place or a working -anchor,
but not both.)
+ alt theme: buttons: move focus ring back into BorderElement;
this shouldn't shift in/out on press/release.
(OR: move shift in/out logic from PressableBorderElement
into PaddingElement -- better solution) [done, 5Apr2004]
+ Schedule redraw/resize when image changes.
~~ Scrollbars:
+ classic theme: scrollbar arrows don't look quite right.
+ alt theme: scrollbar arrows don't look quite right. [should be fixed]
+ scrollbar elements don't activate/prelight on hover. [fixed]
~~ Notebook: (suggestions from dkf)
+ Track active state for tabs [done]
+ add [$nb index current] [done]
+ Generate <<NotebookTabChanged>> on raise. [done]
+ Possibly: [$nb index $labelName] -- interpret $labelName as pattern.
(Not done: conflicts with [$nb index current], [$nb index end];
not very useful in the context of L10N)
+ a way to reorder tabs, and insert tabs at places other than the end
[$nb insert $idx $child options...]; if $child is already in,
this moves it?
+ Ctrl-Tab / Ctrl-Shift-Tab to switch panes
[this is turning out to be rather tricky to do ...]
[Resolution: Won't do. Ctrl-Tab is the only way to tab out of a Text
widget, don't want to override this.]
[Changed mind: DKF convinced me that this is really desirable.
Still don't know how to do it.]
[22 Apr 2004: Done, finally]
+ On raise -- set focus to first child of raised pane. [no, don't]
+ Possibly: allow focus on tabs? (<Key-Left>, <Key-Right> switches tabs)
Better: Focus on notebook widget, current tab implicitly has focus. [done]
+ Possibly: [$nb select] instead of [$nb raise] [done]
+ Possibly: a way to pack widgets inside tabs (gtk+), and/or in
the area to the right of the tabs (Mozilla).
+ -sticky option for panes -- determine how to place child
widget in client parcel [done]
+ Possibly (but probably not): allow non-child widgets to
be added as panes (not supporting this simplifies things
a LOT though).
+ Possibly: -raisecommand, -leavecommand for tabs?
[No: see tktable-tile-dev discussion. <<NotebookTabChanged>> suffices]
+ Handle case where widget is not wide enough to display all tabs
(display left, right tabscroll arrows at right end of tab row)
[Resolution: best approach is to squeeze all tabs.
Scrolling tab row and stacked tabs are horrible usability-wise;
not going to add all that complexity for the benefit
of bad UIs.] [done, 16 Sep 2004]
+ [JH] Theme-specific left and right padding for tab area
(needed for correct L&F on XP) [done, 13 Sep 2004]
+ BUG: doesn't display properly if borderwidth > 1 [N/A anymore]
+ Possibly: add -side {top|bottom|left|right} option;
+ Possibly: add -side option with same values as labelframe -labelanchor
+ Possibly: add per-tab -side option
~~ Windows native theme:
+ Scrollbar trough not always drawn w/right color (stippled?)
+ Pushbuttons don't show default indicator or focus ring [fixed]
+ Focus ring drawn in the wrong color
+ Check/radiobutton indicators: if you select one of the "large"
display settings, these look wrong.
+ FrameControlElements automatically adapt to system color changes,
elements that use a -background resource do not (maybe this
should be fixed in Tk instead (TIP 156?))
[fixed, 22 Feb 2004].
~ Eventually:
+ Make 'alt' theme the default (or something even simpler),
move Motif L&F to "classic" theme. [done]
~ Possible refactorings:
+ Reattach Layouts to Styles?
+ Merge ElementInstances into LayoutNodes?
+ Split up tkTheme.c; it's huge.
+ Use a tree of LayoutOps to specify layouts internally
instead of an array of LayoutInstructions. [done]
+ Add "-padding" (and "-ipadding"?) options to LayoutOps
+ Possibly: remove "Padding" element (or not: needed
to make widget -padding option work.)
~ Miscellaneous:

+ From Satoshi Imai: "An old style has the same mark of a radiobutton

correctly, this means: "radiobuttons and checkbuttons
in menus should have different indicators." (Out of scope
for Tile at the moment, as we don't have a [tmenu] widget,
but should be considered).
~ Suggested changes to Tk:
+ Need TK_OPTION_IMAGE resource type
+ Named fonts should always have a refcount >= 1,
instead of freeing and reallocating them when the go
in and out of use.
+ Expose some of Tk's internals (esp. Windows-specific stuff):
++ TkWinGetDrawableDC
++ TkGetOptionSpec
+ Some way to invoke WorldChanged class proc of all widgets.
