I want to make a simple poor-man's help system that easily can be incorporated in applications. With 2. I mean that I want to be able to easily present text and a picture and text and picture etc... if needed. I would need to use several text_views to present the text. Would give a much larger footprint than using labels I would imagine? Unless one now can include pixmaps in the text_view ? I haven't checked this ... Hmm better have a look at the API again... :-) Anyway I can constrain the help to say 400 pixels with and set all labels to this width. Pity that the label widget is so poor.
