Re: Styles in GnomeCanvas?

[bratsche dfw net]

Thanks Federico. Yeah, I looked through the usage of GTK style code in
various other widgets compared to the Canvas and came up with the same
conclusion, but I don't think I am familiar enough with GTK internals yet
nor skilled enough to be able to do the same thing with the canvas code
yet, otherwise I'd try to make a patch for it.

I read some time ago that the GnomeCanvas was being considered to be moved
into GTK from libgnomeui. Do you know if that is still planning to be
done?

Many thanks,
