I think resizing the window is unlikely to work well :-( Maybe the next generation of window managers will start to support this sort of animation. You can move the position of the pane divider quite smoothly though. I do this in my app with a timeout setting a new position every 50ms or so (from memory). Source and binary here if you're curious: http://www.vips.ecs.soton.ac.uk/ to see the animation, click View / Toolkit Browser in the main window. _______________________________________________ gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
