Hi,
 
I want some help from the group.
I am just creating a sample calculator that will have button with Indian language numbers on it. That everything on the calculator will be in indian languageHindi).
I am able to create calculator using gtk library in english. But I am facing problem how to render Hindi text/number over the button.
I have hindi OT fonts installed on my machine. I am using Red hat as well as fedora core 3.
 
 
Can anybody help me out?
Sample code for displaying hindi text will help me a lot.
 
Thanks in advance.

I saw in an example that entries of type GtkActionEntry are defined like
this:


static GtkActionEntry entries[] = {
{ "Menu1Action", NULL, "Menu _1" },
{ "Menu2Action", NULL, "Menu _2" },
{ "Menu3Action", NULL, "_Dynamic Menu" },

{ "cut", GTK_STOCK_CUT, "C_ut", "<control>X",
   "Cut the selected text to the clipboard", G_CALLBACK (activate_action)
},
{ "copy", GTK_STOCK_COPY, "_Copy", "<control>C",
   "Copy the selected text to the clipboard", G_CALLBACK (activate_action)
},
{ "paste", GTK_STOCK_PASTE, "_Paste", "<control>V",
   "Paste the text from the clipboard", G_CALLBACK (activate_action) },
{ "quit", GTK_STOCK_QUIT,  NULL, "<control>Q",
   "Quit the application", G_CALLBACK (gtk_main_quit) },
{ "customise-accels", NULL, "Customise _Accels", NULL,
   "Customise keyboard shortcuts", G_CALLBACK (show_accel_dialog) },
{ "toolbar-small-icons", NULL, "Small Icons", NULL,
   NULL, G_CALLBACK (toolbar_size_small) },
{ "toolbar-large-icons", NULL, "Large Icons", NULL,
   NULL, G_CALLBACK (toolbar_size_large) }
};




First three lines are for menus. In api it is stated that GtkActionEntry has
6 fields. How is that the last three of them for "Menu*Action" are skipped?
Why NULL keyword wasn't being used instead?

Thanks.

Did you look at the image I attached to my reply, it can also be found
at [1]. The image displays what I get when I compile and run your code.

Oh come on!
A pentium 100?
That's what you're using, right? Sure? Really sure? I don't believe you.
Computers from that time are starting to pack it in. In fact, computers
from that time have probably *finished* packing it in.
If anyone has a pentium 100 ( or a 25MGz 386 for that matter ) still
around, it's *NOT* to run Gtk2, it's to run a firewall, DNS, etc, and it
will not have X at all.
Everyone else ( bar the occasional minimal-freak ) uses widget toolkits
designed to run on today's hardware.
God help you when XGL / Glitz arrive :)

I'm using a pentium 166 as a dedicated mozilla machine among a few other
things.

Well, i write a lot of stuff for embedded systems, and a full windowing
graphical widget kit for a 12MHz 8bit cpu using scaleable fonts is
entirely feasible.

There is absolutely no reason for the sluggishness of graphical toolkits
on anything faster than an old 386. Excessive layers of convoluted bloat
and poor architectural design is the problem. Rendering of arbitrary unicode
glyphs is fast and easy (unlike pango). Old laptops with 1MB video ram
should be entirely useable for web browsing with mozilla and gui
word processing.

Correction: 266MHz (with 64MB ram)

But that is very sluggish because of ram swapping when running mozilla.

In a typical gtk window with a dozen widgets in it, dragging the lower
right corner to resize the window shows a very sluggish iterative loop
of repositioning/resizing all the widgets, on a 2.4GHz AMD athlon.

I think the video card is unaccelerated in dual-head mode that i have.
However, even if unaccelerated, a well designed system should still be
lightning fast. You'd expect this if every individual pixel was retrieved
from the X server, alpha-composited, then written back.

argh! the green statusbar in your image is the result i'm trying to archive, but differs from result on my pc... I presume is a platform configuration problem.... any tip?
thanks for your support!

Don't know really.. I'm running gkt+-2.8.6 and the clearlooks engine.
maybe that the engine does it, but it should work in gtk+-2.6.

Hi,
I think I encountered this problem some time ago (should be in this list's
archives somewhere) and in my case it was related to the theme engine. I
was using the FC3 bluecurve theme at the time which I think uses a pixmap
for the progress bar. This was overriding my chosen color. When I changed
to another theme the problem disappeared.
Nick

I have read your very interesting blog, but haven't found out what tools
you are using to profile an application. I would love to use them on my
own tools using gtk+!

So far I've only been using Sysprof:
