It seems to depend on the widget type, and on what you call native... For example, tk menus are definitely the native ones; tk scrollbars are the native ones, but with the Win2k look (no XP look available yet); tk buttons do not seem to be the native ones, as they don't act like "normal" Windows buttons. > But it definitely doesn't use GTK widgets under Ubuntu with > Gnome desktop. You seem to imply that GTK is "native" on Linux. It isn't, as can be seen with the echoes of the "holy war" between Gnome and KDE that we often see around here. As an aside, I personnally work on Linux and don't even use any of these environments (both are too much Windows-like to my taste...). > Is there a way to get it to do so? Not yet. But tcl/tk 8.5 will include the Tile extension including new themable widgets. See here: http://tktable.sourceforge.net/tile/screenshots/unix.html There is also a Tile/QT extension that allows the Tile widgets to use the QT library. See here: http://www.ellogon.org/petasis/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=24&Itemid=40 AFAIK, nothing equivalent for GTK yet.
