<div dir="ltr">"Quartz" is not "XQuartz", is the point. XQuartz is X11. Quartz is the old name for the native OS X 2D graphics API, still used for consistency. If you tell me you don't want to use X11 but you want XQuartz, you're telling me you want X11 instead of X11 (huh?).<div><br></div><div>(X11 is *not* native. OS X graphics is not, and never has been, based on X11.)<br><div><br></div><div>As for native graphics, it depends on the program and what toolkit if any it uses. As an example, gtk2's native Core Graphics support is buggy: some things work, some have odd bugs (xchat/hexchat won't autoscroll, for example), some simply won't build because they explicitly use e.g. gdk/x11.h instead of the portable Gdk API.</div><div><br></div><div>For inkscape, I see a standard gtk2 mode and an experimental gtk3 mode. This is a problem because currently you can only install gtk2 and/or gtk3 for either native/"Quartz" or X11. (It should be possible to make gtk3 use pluggable backends, but it doesn't currently. gtk2 is a lost cause in that regard: you have to pick native or X11 and use it for everything. This is a problem if one of the programs you want to use only works correctly with +x11.)</div></div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Fri, Jan 6, 2017 at 10:07 AM, Eneko Gotzon <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:enekogotzon@gmail.com" target="_blank">enekogotzon@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:small">Hi Brandon, thank you for take time to answer my question</div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote"><span class="">On Thu, Jan 5, 2017 at 11:51 PM, Brandon Allbery <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:allbery.b@gmail.com" target="_blank">allbery.b@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_extra"><span class="m_-4425637980248432405gmail-"><br></span>XQuartz = X server under Quartz = X11 for OS X.</div></div></blockquote><div><br></div></span><div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:small">I think I understand your statement.</div></div><span class=""><div> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_extra"> So you *have* it for XQuartz.
