Ok, here's what I've been able to gather... I'll add this to the wiki
or somewhere so we can all refer to it after I'm sure I've got it right.
Toplevel GtkContainer::border-width = 6
Notebook tab GtkContainer::border-width = 12
GtkVBox::spacing = 6
GtkHBox::spacing = 12 (?)
Internal GtkBox::border-width = 6
GtkButtonBox::spacing = 12?
GtkTable::border-width = 0
GtkTable::column-spacing = 12
GtkTable::row-spacing = 6
Indentation: use GtkAlignment, set:
- padding-top = 0
- padding-bottom = 6 [1]
- padding-left = 12
- padding-right = 0
- border-width = 0
[1] Accessibility dialog has 0 bottom padding for check boxes in the
Keyboard tab. Why?
Aside from the inconsistency in [1], does that seem right?
I'm sure this has already been debated, but, just to throw in my
probably-unwanted 2 cents... doesn't all this spacing seem a little
excessive to anyone else? Especially in the case where you have a
large number of check/radio buttons arranged vertically. The WM Tweaks
dialog is going to be *really* tall after I apply these style
guidelines.
