Does WebKit use native widgets on all platforms? If not, does it use native widgets on any platforms? --- Mark Volkmann
Hi, As per my understanding , Webkit does not use the native widgets in any platform. It actually uses custom draw mechanism. It is implemented in the file themegtk/Themewin etc. Sachin Sent from BlackBerry® on Airtel -----Original Message----- From: Mark Volkmann <mark@ociweb.com> Date: Tue, 29 Apr 2008 10:15:10 To:webkit-dev@lists.webkit.org Subject: [webkit-dev] native widgets Does WebKit use native widgets on all platforms?

Not quite correct. It uses native widgets to implement any widget derived from the platform/Widget.h class. These are found in platform/port dirs. Scrolling, Scrollbars, menus are native. Drawing of buttons checkboxes and most form controls is also linked into the native platform in vi a platform specific RenderTheme. This RenderTheme generally uses the platforms theming mechanism. So these could be considered a hybrid. On Tue, Apr 29, 2008 at 8:34 AM, <sachin.puranik@celunite.com> wrote:
