hi Igor; next time, you should probably use the API reference: https://developer.gnome.org/gtk2/2.24/api-index-full.html — just search for "::map", which points you here: https://developer.gnome.org/gtk2/2.24/GtkWidget.html#GtkWidget-map also, there's no need to use connect-after: GtkWidget::map is a run-first signal, so the class handler will run before your callbacks. ciao, Emmanuele.
