Hi, I am new to this list, so please bear with me :) Currently I'm working on a gtk engine called Clearlooks. Based on a nice idea from jimmac, I tried to implement an animated progressbar. Unfortunately, it seems that no matter how often I call gtk_widget_queue_draw() on a GtkProgressBar, it will not get redrawn. Apparently there's some double-double buffering going on or something. I added printf() to the draw_box method, but it never gets drawn on a GtkProgressBar's expose event. It only gets called after a resize event. So somewhere the contents are kept offscreen and then just blitted onto the screen. This is not the case for other widgets like buttons. An expose event will cause a redraw event. I am not sure why GtkProgressBar is different in this regard. Can a redraw somehow be forced? I need to do this, because a timeout will periodically call a repaint to all visible progressbars. Jimmac's animated scrollbar mockup can be found here: http://jimmac.musichall.cz/weblog.php/Design/Progress.php It appears that a GtkButton has a NO_WINDOW and MAPPED widget flag, while GtkProgressBar has not. I'm not sure if either one has something to do with it, since I can't really find any straight answers in the documentation. Hopefully someone can help me out on this one. Kind regards, Richard Stellingwerff. _______________________________________________ gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
