Isn't that the same as with most other multiplatform toolkits? GTK and Qt both support framebuffer rendering, IIRC.
- crishoj 10y agoDo you have a reference for GTK supporting FB rendering? The best I could find was this: > This current DirectFB GTK+ 3.12 port lacks drag and drop, selection support, cursor shapes, full-screen support, geometry hints, properties, and many other features, but according to the developers maintaining this out-of-tree GTK+ code it's "basically usable" for running modern GTK apps on DirectFB.
