[Bug 58998] Re: Gaim's tabs don't function like in Gedit/Epiphany/Terminal

[Mark Doliner]

To me Gaim's tabs look exactly the same as Gedit's tabs.  I'm using Gaim
2.0.0 SVN.  I have a feeling that's newer than what you're using.

* Hmm, I can't imagine why they wouldn't be the same height.  Unless we used to use a different close button that was causing the tabs to be taller than normal.  Or maybe your tabs are shorter than they would be by default and our protocol icons are causing them to be taller in Gaim?
* The bug where the close button gets cut off should be fixed.  I'm not sure when we fixed it, but it was some time between 1.5.0 and 2.0.0 SVN.
* We ARE using Gtk Notebook, but tab dragging was added only very recently (GTK+ 2.10.0, July 3 2006).  Are you using GTK+ 10.0 or newer?  We'll have to leave in our current tab dragging code, since we support all the way back to GTK+ 2.0, but eventually we'll add support for the new tab dragging and #ifdef it so that it's only enabled for people using GTK+ 2.10.0 or higher.  But that's a pretty low priority.  Patches welcome!
