Hi, I am using GtkImageMenuItem in my code and the icon to be displayed is custom drawn. To achieve this, I am creating a GtkDrawingArea widget with proper size and adding it to a GtkHBox. This GtkHBox will be the image in the imagemenuitem. I am handling the expose event (of the drawing area) callback where proper icon is drawn in the drawing area. The problem that I am facing is that, some of the portion of the icon is transparent which means I SHOULD get proper background color of the menuitem behind the icon wherever it is transparent. For menus, select is called first and then expose is called. Now the questions are 1) When expose event is called (after select event), at that time, the item doesn't appear selected yet and the background is still grey meaning not selected. Why is it so? 2) How to get the exact background color (blue/green, the selection color or grey the deselection color) of the menu item when it is selected/deselected? 3) What event should I handle so that the correct background of the menu item appears and I can render the icon? Is there any other way to achieve the same? Thanks -Pramod __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Dress up your holiday email, Hollywood style.
