Hello, This is a common problem with todays "eco-systems". They tend to be so complex so that small firms and singel programmers have problems to coop. Instead of making it simple to create a "simple" program the environment tends to focus on "user experience" and this demands extremly complex environments. The result is that there is no tutorials, no examples and no simple template to start from. The result is that the interest in the environment (eg Gtk3) is almoste gone. I have a hard time to find *anyone* programming in Gtk3 this days. I have some gtk2 widgets I want to port to gtk3 and there is virtually no help to get... Talented programmers (eg developers of Gtk) should strive harder to help out. MAKE TUTORIALS THAT WORK! /Göran Hasse Den 2018-07-26 kl. 19:21, skrev Scott Mayo via gtk-list: > I’ll second this. Gtk is complex, with three layers (gtk, gdk, g). Then there are separate pieces like pango and Cairo.

Start from main and show a pure gtk+3 app that takes button press, mouse moves, text entry and keystrokes, and uses them to update labels with different markup options. Throw in a clock display to show timers. Use multiple threads to show how to add idle functions.
