Hi Ikorot, I think that there must be some examples of this behaviour on current applications. Take a look at this simple example, which explains how combo boxes work: http://www.gtkmm.org/docs/gtkmm-2.4/docs/tutorial/html/chapter-combobox.html Maybe you can add items for your ComboBox using the function append_text?? I have no specific knowledge on this matter, but the usual thing I do when I face similar problems is to try to think with a wider perspective. Is is necessary to do that? How was it achieved in the past? Sometimes those new functions are not very tested, and may cause problems. I hope this little help may work for you.
