Backport CSS border-spacing to GTK+ 3.22?
@dboles
Submitted by Daniel Boles Link to original bug (#786483)
Description
commit 0eecc6f6 added this to GTK+ 4 as a theme-based replacement for Box::spacing and Grid::(row|column)-spacing.
Although I acknowledge unlikely - if possible, it would be really nice to sneak this into GTK+ 3.
Currently in order to do spacing there in CSS - which is preferable both semantically and because it e.g. enables spacing based on font size (via r/em units) - some mind-bending hacks with classes and margins seem to be required - especially if the spacing has any degree of variability, whereupon SASS seems to become near-essential to generate all the required boilerplate, and that of course means the possible spacings must be known at sassc-time.
This was requested as part of Bug 762397, and while the title of that was fixed, it was left open for a different purpose, namely getting border-spacing. Since I meant to open this one a while ago, we can close that other one - and maybe this one too, but at least it will be clear what's been resolved and what hasn't. :)
