I was away last week and as such was a little busier than usual this |
2 |
week. Still, I got some ventoo work done. I'm working on one of the two |
3 |
last major features of Ventoo: Smart Completion. As the user enters text |
4 |
into Ventoo I wanted Ventoo to be able to tell the user immediately if |
5 |
the input was valid or not as well a suggest valid completions. Gtk |
6 |
comes with text completion utilities that I wanted to use for this |
7 |
project. Turns out that you can't associate a completion object with a |
8 |
TextRenderer in a TreeView widget. I tried to hack in completion with |
9 |
custom edit callbacks but I was not able to get it working smoothly. I'm |
10 |
currently speaking with my mentor about alternatives. |

On the bright side I have the backend all figured out, just need to let |
13 |
the user see the data in a convenient fashion. |
