Over the night I wrote about GTK+ 3.x support being improved inside LibreOffice after noticing the relevant Git commits while now the Red Hat developer has come forward and elaborated on his work to improve the GTK-related code within LibreOffice.

Caolán McNamara of Red Hat has written a new blog post since the earlier Phoronix posting about improving the GTK3 VCL plug code fore LibreOffice. The correct UI font is now working, scrolling is working fine, mouse-wheel functionality is there, and other things are starting to pan out.

If you're curious about GTK3 support inside LibreOffice, read this blog post for the latest Git details.
