My software has to run on Gnome and CDE from a Sun desktop or through Exceed/Citrix on Windows. Some of the panels are accounted for when requesting screen size, but some are not. I gave up and made the maximized geometry configurable by the user. If the user adds panels or changes screen resolution, the user needs to change the configuration. I'm not happy with the solution, but I can make my apps behave the way they are required to. -Anthony Vallone _______________________________________________ gtk-list mailing list gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
