Hi: Can anyone tell me how to tell to my applicacion in which folders it should look for xpm files or others files? My problem is that i'm trying to show my pixmaps without running my applicacion from the console, because when i run it from the executable it doesn't show the pixmaps. When i run my app from the console it works fine, showing the pixmaps and everything. Someone told me that problem is because i don't tell my applicacion in which folder to look for. And also i would like to solve this problem just using gtk funcions, if it is posible. By the way, i put my xpm files in a directory called pixmaps and is in the same directory that is the executable and the source file. I hope that anyone could help me.
