What is the problem with having the arrows on the side? From my dabblings in PD the arrows on lots of boxes doesn't look like it would affect the layout at all? It should be enough to just subclass the GtkSpinButton and add the drag ability to it, then you'd have the best of both worlds. Especially as you say you don't want to duplicate work, why start from scratch when the GtkSpinButton already does 90% of what you need? But anyway, I've longed for a good UI for PD for a while now, good luck. iain _______________________________________________ gtk-list mailing list gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
