What is Private Ubuntu extension in Glade?

  • 772

In Glade's TreeView setup dialog, what is the "Private Ubuntu extension" option, and what might my application gain/lose if I enable it?

Ubuntu desktop 18.04.2 Glade 3.22.1 (although this option has been there in many earlier versions)

  1. I asked myself the same question.

    In the documentation we can find :

    The “ubuntu-almost-fixed-height-mode” property

  “ubuntu-almost-fixed-height-mode” gboolean
Private Ubuntu extension.

Owner: GtkTreeView

Flags: Write

Default value: FALSE

    Looking for ubuntu-almost-fixed-height-mode on google, it seems that this is an extension related to the ubuntu software center.

    Here for example : https://github.com/mortenpi/ubuntu-software-center/blob/897c3933f5a27b6755cde72bb06329a4bc8b97b8/softwarecenter/ui/gtk3/widgets/apptreeview.py#L61

    Whe can read here: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/software-center/1.1.18

    softwarecenter/view/appview.py: - use "ubuntu-almost-fixed-height-mode" when available to speed up the treeview drawing significantly
