It happens when I open TuxGuitar and go to settings, they simply doesn't display

Comment 1 Orcan Ogetbil 2015-01-31 05:13:09 UTC
I confirm the behavior. Unfortunately, I don't have a solution. I would say we should ask upstream, but they look inactive for the last couple years.

Comment 2 Neil 2015-01-31 18:22:01 UTC
true, pretty bad, thanks.

Comment 3 Mat Booth 2015-02-02 09:20:20 UTC
Can you try starting tuxguitar with the following command:

SWT_GTK3=0 tuxguitar

Does this fix your problem?

Comment 4 Orcan Ogetbil 2015-02-02 15:14:27 UTC
Thanks Mat, that definitely made some progress. With that setting, the views are not blank anymore, however the comboboxes are a little too narrow, making them hard to read. Do you have another card hidden in your sleeve for that?

Duff, can you verify too, that this works for you? If it does, we can patch the RPM package.

Comment 5 Neil 2015-02-02 17:40:41 UTC
Yes, it worked, but I confirm too that the comboboxes aren't legible.

Unfortunately not. Although admittedly SWT on gtk3 is not perfect, the real fix will *probably* be to patch the application to fix the dialog layouts  -- setting the SWT_GTK3 environment variable is just a workaround to force SWT to use the gtk2 backend instead of gtk3.

Comment 7 Orcan Ogetbil 2015-02-03 03:12:25 UTC
Well, it's certainly better than nothing, so I'll patch the RPM until we have a real fix.

Mat, how much work is SWT to learn if my only goal is to convert fixed size layouts to non-fixed size? I did some Qt coding in C++, I am hoping that it is similar.

Comment 8 Fedora Update System 2015-02-03 06:10:06 UTC

Good question! I have not used Qt so I cannot make that comparison. IMO, SWT is slightly nicer to use than Swing, if that means anything to you :-)

Upstream has plenty of small examples:
