Hello Mirek,

While compiling new version I see a lot of warnings that should be eliminated:


Well, most important warnings of those are about gtk3 more or less dropping support for multithreading - if remember some history of U++, we were at phase where the only thread eligible to do GUI was the main thread, then we went to some limited possibility to do things from other threads. If other thread was to do something in GUI, you had to PostCallback.

Interestingly, gtk just went in the exactly opposite direction - doing some GUI stuff from other threads is now deprecated and dropped in gtk4 and the recommend approach is to use their's PostCallback equivalent.

Now I have some ideas how to deal with it, but it will take some time.

(Plus of course there are some easier warnings to fixe, 'todo').

Moreover, the tooltip text is not visible on Manjaro KDE. I also agree that there is a problem with the scrollbars - they are not emulated ideally.


Can you post tooltip screenshot? If not, can you describe colors?

Scrollbars I can fix. Would be nice to know which engine is that though...

Mirek
