Subject: gtk + gtkada shaky?

Message-ID: <t5em0s96te5deb@corp.supernews.com> (raw)

I was wondering if anyone else has noticed this.  After running the test
application that came with gtkada, as well as messing with the version of
glade that came with gtkada, and running a few of the examples,  I came to
the conclusion that some of the interface is shaky/unstable.
Things I noticed included:
-buttons not returning to their original colour after the cursor had passed
over them
-scrolling taking a noticable time to update the screen
-certain controls leaving a sort of smearing across the screen as they were
moved

These aren't huge things, but they make a difference in the look and feel of
the interface.  When I tested the test program, using rapid clicks and
motions, similar to how end-users might use the program, I was able to
consistantly replicate several of these errors in multiple instances.

I'm wondering if code alone can correct for these types of errors, or if
these are problems inherent in gtk or gtkada.  Are there any applications in
which the gui was coded with gtkada that are worth checking out?

Thanks
