But if what you said were correct, isn't that what the >exposure_event is for, that is, in place of the map_event? no, expose events are sent whenever some part of the window needs to be redrawn. thats quite different. _______________________________________________ gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
