Hi.
I was dealing with a similar problem not so long ago and came up withthis piece of code that does what you want (plus some more, so pleaseignore the commented sections - the main point of the example is theusage of expose-event event).
----------------#include <gtk/gtk.h>
static gbooleancb_expose( GtkWidget *widget, GdkEventExpose *event, GdkPixbuf *buf ){ gdk_draw_pixbuf( widget->window, NULL, buf, 0, 0, 0, 0, -1, -1,GDK_RGB_DITHER_NONE, 0, 0 ); return FALSE;}
intmain (int argc, char *argv[]){ GtkWidget *window; GtkWidget *button; GdkPixbuf *buf; GdkPixmap *map; GdkBitmap *mask;
gtk_init (&argc, &argv);
window = gtk_window_new( GTK_WINDOW_TOPLEVEL ); gtk_container_set_border_width( GTK_CONTAINER( window ), 20 ); g_signal_connect( G_OBJECT( window ), "destroy", G_CALLBACK( gtk_main_quit ), NULL ); /*gtk_window_set_default_size( GTK_WINDOW( window ), 300, 300 ); gtk_window_set_decorated( GTK_WINDOW( window ), FALSE ); gtk_widget_realize( window );*/ buf = gdk_pixbuf_new_from_file( "test.png", NULL ); /*gdk_pixbuf_render_pixmap_and_mask( buf, &map, &mask, 10 ); gdk_window_shape_combine_mask( window->window, mask, 0, 0 );*/ gtk_widget_set_app_paintable( window, TRUE ); g_signal_connect( G_OBJECT( window ), "expose-event", G_CALLBACK( cb_expose ), buf ); button = gtk_button_new_with_label( "WOW" ); gtk_container_add( GTK_CONTAINER( window ), button ); gtk_widget_show_all( window ); gtk_main();
return 0;}--------------------
