Using GTK+ on Windows
The Windows port of GTK+ is an implementation of GDK (and therefore GTK+)
on top of the Win32 API.
Windows-specific commandline options
The Windows GDK backend can be influenced with some
additional command line arguments.
--sync.
Don't batch GDI requests. This might be a marginally useful option for
debugging.
--no-wintab,
--ignore-wintab.
Don't use the Wintab API for tablet support.
--use-wintab.
Use the Wintab API for tablet support. This is the default.
--max-colors number.
In 256 color mode, restrict the size of the color palette to
the specified number of colors. This option is obsolete.
Windows-specific environment variables
The Win32 GDK backend can be influenced with some
additional environment variables.
GDK_IGNORE_WINTAB.
If this variable is set, GTK+ doesn't use
the Wintab API for tablet support.
GDK_USE_WINTAB.
If this variable is set, GTK+ uses the Wintab API for
tablet support. This is the default.
GDK_WIN32_MAX_COLORS.
Specifies the size of the color palette used
in 256 color mode.
