It's a limitation of the win32 event system. gdk_threads_enter() and _leave() will not help you here. Even on X11 where multithreaded gui stuff is possible, you should avoid it. Instead use the g_idle_add paradigm to schedule tasks in the main thread from your threads. _______________________________________________ gtk-list mailing list gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
