This utility is X11 +specific, so it should only be built when GIMP is being compiled +for the X11 GDK backend. + +Taking the screenshots is not part of the docs build. +Instead, the images are created, and then copied by hand into +devel-docs/libgimpwidgets/images. Ideally, the images should be +taken once a release, and all images should be updated at the +same time. A simple theme should be used to take the screenshots. + +The GTK+ docs team came up with the idea for this utility as +well as some of the code to implement it. |
