[Glade-devel] Glade-3 bugs regarding opening Glade-2 files.

[Joaquin Cuenca Abela]

Ok, I've fixed 1 & 4.

2 & 3 will take a bit more time, as our support of menus & toolbars is
still not finished, but I will make sure that they load when we support
these items.

I'm still expecting bug to arise, but I hope that you will have to look
a bit harder to find them (just crossing my fingers ;-)

I've don't yet fixed the xml writter, so the format used to write and
the format used to read is a bit out of sync right now.  I will fix it
asap.

Thank you for your bug reports!

Cheers,

P.S.: As now I'm mainly using windows, and I don't have here a glade-2
windows' version, I'm not 100% sure that the results are exactly the
same ones as with glade-2, if someone can send me a link to the windows
version of glade-2, or screenshots of what am I supposed to see I will
be grateful :-)
