However I don't know how. You want configure_event on the GtkWindow. (This is the event that your embedded NEdit is not receiving, for exactly the reason you explained.) What you can do is simply sythesize a ConfigureNotify event for the NEdit window, just as a window manager would. See for example the function send_configure_notify() in metacity/src/window.c, or the equivalent function in any window manager. Havoc
