It might be lack of sleep, but I can’t figure this out.

I have a Label, and I want its text to be red when it represents an error, and I want it be green when it represent “good to go”.

I found search result for C and maybe a solution for Python, but nothing for Rust.

I tried manually setting the css-classes property and running queue_draw(); it didn’t work.

I can have a gtk::Box or a Frame that I place where the Label should go, then declare two Labels, and use set_child() to switch between them, but that seems like an ugly solution.

Do you have a solution?

    If you only need it for the interface, a shit workaround would be to prefix all text with an RLM (RIGHT-TO-LEFT Mark).

    Unfortunately no, I expect users to enter Arabic text as well.

    Fast iteration is already fixed by using cranelift in your release-dev profile (or whatever you want to call it), and mold as a linker.

    Maybe, I didn’t try that before, but I don’t expect Cranelift to match the speeds gtk-rs is currently giving me; Cranelift also doesn’t solve the problem of rust-analyzer acting crazy.

    Okay, something helpful instead: Did you try asking in the rust:gnome.org matrix room mentioned in the project page?

    No, I prefer public posts to prevent effort duplication, so much so that my mind started filtering out such things on project pages, but thanks for reminding me.
