#3923 closed defect (wontfix)

Style notebook tabs

Reported by: manuq Owned by: danielfrancis
Priority: Low Milestone: Unspecified
Component: Sugar Version: Unspecified
Severity: Unspecified Keywords: 13.1.0
Cc: erikos, danielfrancis Distribution/OS: Unspecified
Bug Status: Unconfirmed

Description (last modified by manuq)

The GTK2 notebook tabs are a) confusing because the coloring of the active tab, the others and the rest of the space has very similar tones of grey and b) very thin, hard to click and not suitable for touch.

We solved this for the tabs of Browse after switching the activity to GTK+3. Now is time to generalize this for all the notebooks.

  • use same style as in Browse GTK+3 (active tab with toolbar background color)
  • get the same toolbar height for tabs with and without icons
  • buttons in active tab: use the same styling than toolbuttons for hovering and tap/click highlight
  • buttons in inactive tabs: also set styling for hovering and tap/click highlight

For the first item, Daniel Francis ​provided a patch to the mailing list.

Hi Manu,
I just tested and the second item can be already ticked. At Terminal, without the close button the tabs have the same height.

Hi Dani,

Replying to danielfrancis:

Yes for Terminal and Browse, which have a + button that makes the height the same. But not for all the notebooks.

Manu, Can you review the patch I attached some time ago? I wouldn't like to make other patches related to this ticket if there's a patch pending.

Daniel, what is the status of this? If there is a patch to land can you please submit a pull request?

comment:15 Changed 11 years ago by danielfrancis

The old not reviewed patch will not be necessary with this commit:
​https://github.com/sugarlabs/sugar-artwork/commit/6932e87d68816f449b84e9d42c3420fc7dc8f49d
I think buttons in active and inactive tabs are not styled yet. I can check this and/or make a patch in this week and submit a pull request.

Hey danielfrancis,

Can you tell what are you missing from the style in tabs? I think they are in decent state.

The only thing I would like to see, is move the subclass of Gtk.Notebook that we have in Browse and Terminal to the toolkit. But that will have to wait the freeze.

Per manuq review on the pull request. As he requested here please open a separate ticket if there are bits of the styling that should be fixed.
