It took me a while to figure out that "GtkStack and GtkStackSwitcher" are supported only in Glade 3.19. It would be better if this information is presented to the user in a more direct manner. The below line explains what I intend to convey.
"The GtkStack widget was added in GTK+ 3.10."
from
https://developer.gnome.org/gtk3/stable/GtkStack.html
This information in Gtk documentation is really helpful, in figuring out which Gtk+ version added support for a widget / object. It would be greatly useful to the glade user, if this can be done for glade too. Say, I open a recent glade UI file in a older glade software, the software can check a simple sqlite3 database ( or check online ) to display that widgets A,B,C are supported in glade X.Z and not in glade X.Y.
Thanks !
