Neither does GTK, Qt or pretty much any other toolkit I've used. It's not exactly a great example of a standard widget.
We could also limit our definition of modern UI toolkits to only ones that support the Touch Bar and POWER9, but it's kinda silly. The vast majority of interaction metaphors are the same between systems. If your OS has a different or unique function that the vendor wants to see used, it's up to them to expose it well.

- smoldesu 4y agoIndeed, I stand corrected. Maybe Qt 6 will give it a glowup befitting of a non-early-2000s Autodesk tool.
- yjftsjthsd-h 4y ago> to only ones that support the Touch Bar and POWER9 I'll give you the touch bar, since that very much does interact with the way GUIs work, but if your graphical toolkit needs to care about the CPU architecture at all I feel like something has gone terribly wrong. The closest thing that seems reasonable is to allow graphical acceleration, but requiring even that is a great way to ensure that things will break on a regular basis.
