hi, i have a problem with lookup_widget() and my frames... here is my widget's structure window1 | |--windowFixed | |- okB | | - notebook | | - screenFrame | | - screenFixed | | - comboBox | i want to reach from my okB's clicked callback to my comboBox. Ä have to read the entry of comboBox. Actually i find a answer but i did not like it... here it is: GtkWidget* widget1 = lookup_widget(GTK_WIDGET(button), "windowFixed"); GtkWidget* notebook = lookup_widget(GTK_WIDGET(widget1), "notebook1"); GtkWidget* screenFrame = lookup_widget(GTK_WIDGET(notebook), "screenFrame"); GtkWidget* screenFixed = lookup_widget(GTK_WIDGET(screenFrame), "screenFixed"); GtkWidget* colorDepthFrame = lookup_widget(GTK_WIDGET(screenFixed), "colorDepthFrame"); GtkWidget* colorDepthCB = lookup_widget(GTK_WIDGET(colorDepthFrame), "colorDepthCB"); I start from window and get my combobox. But it is to long way to get an entry,,, is there an easy way to do that? regards, _______________________________________________ gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
