text: - make sure the last line of text layouts include leading
  
  - documentation notes:
  	- static binaries do not link system libraries, meaning apps still depend on shared GTK+, etc.
  	- ui*Buttons are NOT compatible with uiButton functions
  
  - more robust layout handling
  	- uiFormTie() for ensuring multiple uiForms have the same label area widths
  	- uiSizeGroup for size groups (GtkSizeGroup on GTK+, auto layout constraints on OS X; consider adding after 10.8 is gone)
  
  - windows: should the initial hwndInsertAfter be HWND_BOTTOM for what we want?
  
  - windows: document the rules for controls and containers
  
  - windows: document the minimum size change propagation system
  
  - provisions for controls that cannot be grown? especiailly for windows
  
  - LC_VERSION_MIN_MACOSX has the 10.11 SDK; see if we can knock it down to 10.8 too; OS version is fine
  	- apply the OS version stuff to the test program and examples too
  	- what about micro versions (10.8.x)? force 10.8.0?
  
  - go through ALL the objective-c objects we create and make sure we are using the proper ownership (alloc/init and new are owned by us, all class method constructors are autoreleased - thanks mikeash)
  
  - on OS X, edit shortcuts like command-C working require that the menu entries be defined, or so it seems, even for NSAlert
  	- other platforms?
  
  - make sure all OS X event handlers that use target-action set the action to NULL when the target is unset
  
  - provide a way to get the currently selected uiTab page? set?
  
  - make it so that the windows cntrols only register a resize if their new minimum size is larger than their current size to easen the effect of flicker
  	- it won't remove that outright, but it'll help
  
  - add an option to the test program to run page7b as an independent test in its own window
  	- same for page7c
  
  - http://blogs.msdn.com/b/oldnewthing/archive/2004/01/12/57833.aspx provide a DEF file on Windows
  
  - all ports: update state when adding a control to a parent
  - should uiWindowsSizing be computed against the window handle, not the parent?
  
  - DPI awareness on windows
  
  - http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4543087/applicationwillterminate-and-the-dock-but-wanting-to-cancel-this-action
  
  ultimately:
  - MAYBE readd lifetime handling/destruction blocking
  - related? [12:25] <ZeroOne> And the blue outline on those buttons [ALL clicked buttons on Windows 7] won't go away
  	- I get this too
  		- not anymore
  - SWP_NOCOPYBITS to avoid button redraw issues on Windows when not in tab, but only when making resize faster
  - secondary side alignment control in uiBox
  - Windows: don't abort if a cleanup function fails?
  
  - 32-bit Mac OS X support (requires lots of code changes)
  	- change the build system to be more receptive to arch changes
  
  notes to self
  - explicitly document label position at top-left corner
  - explicitly document that if number of radio buttons >= 1 there will always be a selection
  - mark that uiControlShow() on a uiWindow() will bring to front and give keyboard focus because of OS X
  	- make sure ShowWindow() is sufficient for zorder on Windows
  - document that you CAN use InsertAt functions to insert at the first invalid index, even if the array is empty
  - note that uiTabInsertAt() does NOT change the current tab page (it may change its index if inserting before the current page)
  - note that the default action for uiWindowOnClosing() is to return 0 (keep the window open)
  - note that uiInitOptions should be initialized to zero
  - explicitly document that uiCheckboxSetChecked() and uiEntrySetText() do not fire uiCheckboxOnToggled() and uiEntryOnChanged(), respectively
  - note that if a menu is requested on systems with menubars on windows but no menus are defined, the result is a blank menubar, with whatever that means left up to the OS to decide
  - note that handling of multiple consecutive separators in menus, leading separators in menus, and trailing separators in menus are all OS-defined
  - note that uiDrawMatrixInvert() does not change the matrix if it fails
  - note that the use of strings that are not strictly valid UTF-8 results in undefined behavior
  
  - test RTL
  	- automate RTL
  - now that stock items are deprecated, I have to maintain translations of the Cancel, Open, and Save buttons on GTK+ myself (thanks baedert in irc.gimp.net/#gtk+)
  	- either that or keep using stock items

  - build optimizations
  
  - use http://www.appveyor.com/ to do Windows build CI since people want CI
  
  
  
  
  
  
  - consider just having the windows backend in C++
  	- consider having it all in C++
  
  
  
  don't forget LONGTERMs as well
  
  notes
  - http://blogs.msdn.com/b/oldnewthing/archive/2004/03/29/101121.aspx on accelerators
  
  - group and tab should act as if they have no child if the child is hidden
  on windows
  
  
  
  - a way to do recursive main loops
  	- how do we handle 0 returns from non-recursive uiMainStep() calls that aren't the main loop? (event handlers, for instance)
  - should repeated calls to uiMainStep() after uiQuit() return 0 reliably? this will be needed for non-recursive loops

  [01:41:47]  <vrishab>	Hi. does pango support "fgalpha". I see that foreground="112233xx" works ( alpha=xx ), but fgalpha is a no-op
  [01:52:29]  <vrishab>	pango_attr_foreground_alpha_new (32767) seems to be called in either case, but only the "foreground" attr works
  [01:56:09] 	lolek (lolek@ip-91-244-230-76.simant.pl) joined the channel
  [01:57:48]  <vrishab>	ok. seems like "foreground" is mandatory attr, 1. "foreground-without-alpha" + "alpha" works 2. "foreground-with-alpha" works. 3. "alpha" alone doesn
  [01:57:52]  <vrishab>	't work
  [01:58:29]  <vrishab>	Is there a way to just specify alpha on the current foreground color ?

  [02:15:00]  <vrishab>	1.40.3
  [02:20:46]  <andlabs>	I'll ahve to keep this in mind then, thanks
  [02:20:59]  <andlabs>	if only there was a cairo-specific attribute for alpha...
  
  FONT LOADING
  
  [00:10:08]  <hergertme>	andlabs: is there API yet to load from memory? last i checked i only found from file (which we use in builder). https://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-builder/tree/libide/editor/ide-editor-map-bin.c#n115

  [00:15:19]  <andlabs>	hergertme: no, which is why I was asking =P
  [00:15:30]  <andlabs>	I would have dug down if I could ensure at least something about the backends a GTK+ 3 program uses
  [00:15:39]  <andlabs>	on all platforms except windows and os x
  [00:16:11]  <hergertme>	to the best of my (partially outdated, given pace of foss) knowledge there isn't an api to load from memory
  [00:16:28]  <hergertme>	you can possibly make a tmpdir and put a temp file in there
  [00:16:52]  <hergertme>	and load that as your font dir in your FcConfig, so any PangoFontDescription would point to that one font, no matter what
  [00:17:18]  <hergertme>	(using the API layed out in that link)

  [00:40:38]  <andlabs>	hergertme: not necessarily fontconfig
  [00:40:45]  <andlabs>	it can be with ft2 or xft I guess
  [00:40:55]  <andlabs>	especially since I want the API NOT to make the font part of the font panel
  [00:42:07]  <hergertme>	what sort of deprecated code are you trying to support?
  [00:42:35]  <hergertme>	both of those are deprecated in pango fwiw
  [00:43:06]  <hergertme>	on Linux im pretty sure we use FC everywhere these days
  [00:44:46]  <hergertme>	(and gtk_widget_set_font_map() is how you get your custom font into a widget without affecting the global font lists, as layed out in that link)

  [01:07:54]  <andlabs>	all right, thanks
  [01:08:05]  <andlabs>	hergertme: fwiw right now my requirement is 3.10
  [01:10:47]  <hergertme>	ah, well you'll probably be missing the neccesary font API on gtk_widget
  [01:11:04]  <hergertme>	but pango should be fine even back as far as https://developer.gnome.org/pango/1.28/PangoFcFontMap.html
  [01:11:56]  <andlabs>	good
  [01:12:04]  <andlabs>	because this is for custom drawing into a DrawingArea
  [01:14:12]  <hergertme>	presumably just create your PangoContext as normal, but call pango_context_set_font_map() with the map you've setup. now, the load a font from a file i dont think was added to FontConfig until later though (not sure what release)
  [01:15:53]  <hergertme>	FcConfigAppFontAddFile() <-- that API
  [01:16:30]  <hergertme>	great, and they don't say what version the API was added in teh docs
  function: ide_editor_map_bin_add()
