Apologies for cross-posting, but I haven't had a response to my query on the development list (perhaps the answer is too obvious :) ) I'm using GTK+ 1.2 and have a combo box displayed on the screen. A given menu option must set the default text to appear in the entry section of the combo box. I can set the text by calling gtk_entry_set_text(GTK_ENTRY(GTK_COMBO(combo)->entry), "My String.") If I then check the text by calling gtk_entry_get_text(GTK_ENTRY(GTK_COMBO(combo)->entry)) it has indeed been set to the above value. However, the string cannot be seen on the screen. I'm assuming that setting the text of the entry widget doesn't automatically cause it to repaint. If this is the case, how do I force the combo box to repaint? Or is there another reason for the text not being displayed. Thanks in advance for any help, Will Luesley ******************************************************************** This email and any attachments are confidential to the intended recipient and may also be privileged.
