I followed the tutorial found on the gtk page to draw a simple widget on screen, but it uses graphic contexts from the widget background and foreground definition (widget->style->white_gc or widget->style->fg_gc[GTK_WIDGET_STATE (widget)]. But that's not what I want. I've been playing with the graphic contexts, with the gdk colors and so. But I really don't need all of this. All I want is to draw a not filled rectangle from one color (for example black or white) with a text inside (in the same color as the rectangle) over a background of another color. For example, draw a black rectangle with black text over a red background. I have written this on GtkCairo because it's easier, it doesn't use graphic contexts, only colors to draw some figures, but I don't want to include all the GtkCairo and Cairo itself on my application only to do that. Could someone tell me how could I make that, or instead, give me a link to a good tutorial of GtkDrawingArea or Graphic contexts usage? Thanks in advance. _______________________________________________ gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
