Re: [Evolution-hackers] Log of evolution and documents of E-tree/E-table

Hi Matthew,

 

Thanks a lot for your quick response !

The "log issue" is resolved by your suggestion :)

 

About those widgets, I also found the link you posted. Unfortunatelly, seems only few information are included inside.

I'm not so experienced on Gnome/GTK+ programming and the source code of these widgets are too abstract to understand..

I don't know if anyone could give me a simple brief introduction about e-tree/e-table/etc...what can they do? or some simple figure? Where to start to understand them? Anyway, any help will be highly appreciated..
