Yes.

I suspect that drawing could be faster with GTK+ 2, yes.

Completely independently AFAIK.

Hi,

I am using OpenSUSE 13.1 with KDE.
For wxWidgets I did install gtk3 headers etc. and got it compiled.
For wxWidgets-3.0 I needed to get a fix from svn to compile it ( something with WAYLAND, there it
was fixed).

Anyway I noticed that graphics is now Cairo based, via wxDC.
Is that the only way with gtk3, or is the old fashioned XWindows wxDC implementation also an option
(for speed)?

Are should I have used gtk2 somehow for that?

In fact I am a bit confused how KDE and gtk(version) work together??

Thanks in advance for some insight in this matter! :-)
