I'm writing an application that has tall, narrow windows would like to override where (my verbose) tool tip windows are displayed (some tip windows are four and five times as wide as the window holding the widget). I have snooped around in gtktooltips.[hc] (gtk+-2.2.4) and found that the allocation computation is done inline in gtk_tooltips_draw_tips(). I'm tempted to install some kind of callback in the widget class to present the allocation gtk_tooltips_draw_tips() has computed, and allow the widget for which the tip is to be displayed to alter the x and y coordinate just before the calls to gtk_window_move() and gtk_widget_show() at the end of the gtk_tooltips_draw(). Let me know if this is something you would be interested in incorporating in gtk, and I'll bite the bullet and learn about gobject signaling as to make it fit in with the rest of the library. If not, I'll just rig it to fit my needs. Patrick Schweiger _______________________________________________ gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
