It turns out that this appears, yet again, to be a Windows bug. The debug message that I get running the function in Windows is: 'Ian Puleston' width 60416 But when I run the exact same code in Linux it prints: 'Ian Puleston' width 56930 56930 Pango units translates to 0.77" (56930 / 1024 / 72) which is pretty much exactly what it should be (see above). I will report this as a Windows bug in Bugzilla. Ian _______________________________________________ gtk-list mailing list gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
