As I said, I'll try persuading it to use GTK3 as this is the future anyway and GTK3 works with Wayland.
I need opengl ( without it PCB is painfully slow and layer tarslucence is wrong).

Also, motif is way older thatn GTK2 and it's unlikely that it'll work and even if it work, it's not worth using.

Thanks anyway,


Branko
