Replacing deprecated GtkImageMenuItem
joshas opened this issue · comments
GTK+ 3 has deprecated GtkImageMenuItem - menu item with icon. How should remaining instances of menus with icons be updated? Should Sunflower follow GTK UI recommendations and do not show any icons in menus, or implement custom control to replace GtkImageMenuItem and keep images in menus?
In some cases menus without images become less useful, e.g. emblems quick selection menu.
There's no simple answer to this question. This is definitely an issue that will be addressed just not simply by replacing one functionality with another. Most of these menus I want to redo from scratch. Old way of doing menus is clunky, limited and hard to navigate. I think we can do much better with popovers, dynamic lists and similar.
