wxMotif TODO
------------
Updated: 21/9/98
-------------------------------o-------------------------
- wxDCs
- wxBitmap, wxIcon, wxCursor, wxPalette. What about XPMs, can we assume
libxpm exists and use that? What about PNGs? Can we use gdk
as per wxGTK? Probably not.
- wxRegion
- Bitmap versions of widgets (wxBitmapButton etc.)
- wxCheckBoxList
- Remaining common widgets (wxListBox, wxRadioBox, wxRadioButton, wxChoice,
wxGauge, wxComboBox etc.). Use combobox.c code as bundled in wxWin 1.68.
- wxTextCtrl text file loading and saving.
- Scrolling in wxWindow.
- A generic version of wxNotebook that can be used in wxMotif and
other toolkits that don't have a native control. Perhaps use wxTab as a
starting point.
- MDI classes: use existing Motif widgets for this.
- Miscellaneous classes e.g. wxJoystick (identical to GTK's one for
Linux)
- Dialogs e.g. wxFileSelector. Use a native Motif wxMessageBox.
Some others need tidying, such as the colour and font selectors.
- Write generic wxDirDialog (directory selector).
- Use generic wxTreeCtrl, wxListCtrl: enhance these.
- Write a better generic wxToolBar class than wxToolBarSimple.
- Optimize colour management so we don't get clashes when e.g.
Netscape is running.
- Print/preview framework in print.cpp (see wxGTK's).
- Colour and font setting in widgets.
- wxSystemSettings
- wxTimer
- wxThread (hopefully, similar to wxGTK)
- Copy and paste, drag and drop. Use a standard X drag
and drop standard - see http://www.cco.caltech.edu/~jafl/xdnd/
- Optimize screen refresh for non-native widgets, e.g. wxWindow
created with Create(), using technique in flicker patch for 1.68
(see JACS for latest patch).
- Enhance event handling such that you override e.g. left-click
and unless you call the base OnMouseEvent, the click won't be
sent to the button. Required for Dialog Editor.
- Write makefiles for all samples.
- Create some samples for testing.
- Get Dialog Editor working under Motif.
