gtk_style_context_get_background_color deprecation
Submitted by Morten Welinder
Link to original bug (#742198)
Description
gtk_style_context_get_background_color is now deprecated in favour of gtk_render_background.
Insofar this relates to user code peeking into gtk's widget internals that makes sense.
However, for an implementation of a new widget it does not make sense. Such an implementation has a clear need to access its own style information and gtk_render_background is irrelevant for such use. Specifically I want this for a canvas which is easily 16M pixels tall and very wide too. Obviously we only want to render the visible part.
So please consider un-deprecating gtk_style_context_get_background_color for widget implementation use.
