A real language would have caught that. :-) You're confusing events and signals. You might want to read my two sample chapters, at http://pobox.com/~hp/gnome-app-devel.html You should certainly know most of the info in those chapters before trying to do this. That said, I don't think you want to do this, and I can think of several possibly hard-to-solve problems that it will bring up. Most likely it will be pretty hard to make work, and it will still be flaky once you do. You are better off invoking your callback manually or arranging the code some other way. You certainly won't make it work without a good understanding of Gtk and canvas internals. Havoc -- To unsubscribe: mail gtk-app-devel-list-request@redhat.com with "unsubscribe" as the Subject.
