I can try to prepare a patch, but I am sure that I will fail (at least) all the coding rules regarding local/global variables. Is there a "code book" or is it better to start with little modifications that after being posted can be adjusted? Regarding the second I saw the function "clone_set_src_drawable" on clone.c and in my ignorance I could not tell what to use for the "currently visible image". Can you give me a clue? It would save me the job o reading a few lines of code. Thanks Ze Paulo
