I want to place text anywhere on the screen I want, for instance on top of a pixbuf that is in a drawing area. I have been experimenting with Xft and pango for this, but have been unsuccesful. Can I do this with Pango, Gdk, Gtk or does the text have to be placed in a text view or label then into a box that is put in a container? _______________________________________________ gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
