I think you should be worrying about the delete_event signal instead, because that's what's emitted when the user clicks on that X to close the window. If you don't want the window to be destroyed (the default in GTK+) just hide it instead in your signal handler and return the appropriate boolean value (I forget) to stop further processing (and therefore window destruction) of the signal. It's easier in gtkmm. Murray Cumming murrayc@xxxxxxx www.murrayc.com _______________________________________________ gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
