I have a simple GtkStatusBar created with glade,and want to add a simple message with the date of the last update of the database (just a simple and plain date). I don't want to use the whole stacks, context and all the other things that gtk developers put on the statusbar code. (I could simply use a label but I would like to keep the ...
I need to use Gtk2 for a project. I will be using python/ruby for it. The problem is that packing seems kind of mystical to me. I tried using a VBox so that I could have the following widgets in my window ( in the following order ): menubar toolbar text view/editor control I've managed to "guess" my way with pack_start and get the la...

Now, this kind of approach is perf...
I keep getting a 'uninitialize GLib::Object' error from my code. Here's the code: class MainWindow < Gtk::Window def initialize title = "I'm The Title Of An Application! Yay!" border_width = 10 set_size_request(600, 300) signal_connect("destroy") { Gtk.main_quit } @vbox = Gtk::VBox.new(fals...
This one is driving me nuts. According to GTK's site, there exists GTK_MAJOR_VERSION, GTK_MINOR_VERSION, and GTK_MICRO_VERSION constants. However, none of these work: echo GTK_MAJOR_VERSION; echo GtK::MAJOR_VERISON; echo Gtk::GTK_MAJOR_VERSION; etc Also, Gtk::check_version(2,12,0) always fails even though I have a higher version. I'...
I am trying to save user's bold/italic/font/etc tags in a GtkTextView. Using GtkTextBuffer.get_text() does not return the tags. The best documentation I have found on this is: http://www.pygtk.org/docs/pygtk/class-gtktextbuffer.html#method-gtktextbuffer--register-serialize-format However, I do not understand the function arguments. It ...
Rather than sending an actual pointer to a value, the value is cast to a pointer. I found these examples in the GUI interface code of a GTK program. g_signal_connect (pastebutton[pane], "clicked", G_CALLBACK(on_paste_button_pressed), (void*)((long)pane<<4)); In the above example, I...
I've been trying to get an Gtk2::Image object in this Perl Gtk2 application to get to react to button presses, but to no avail. The image shows as expected but the button events don't get handled. What am I missing? my $img = Gtk2::Image->new_from_file( $file ); $img->set_property( sensitive => 1 ); $img->can_focus( 1 ); $img->...
Not sure if yall can help this time, as I'm just using this particular program not coding with it... I downloaded Deluge, a free torrent app, and it requires GTK2 Runtime which I've also installed. Unfortunately, on my English WinXP with East Asian Language support Deluge sets itself to Chinese menus and has no option to alter the langu...

The install of Gtk2 and Glib mentioned above is only the first part. What I really want to do is install a piece of software called Chart in my Ubuntu Hardy machine. Here is the instruction: "To run Chart you need Perl 5.10, Gtk2-Perl 1.220, and a list of Perl modules as long as your arm, per the Makefile.PL in the sources, all availa...
Hi, In Gtk application, there is 1 main loop which listens for events (e.g. mouse click, keyboard, etc). And when a modal dialog popup, the main loop is blocked until user clicks 'OK' in the dialog, right? (i.e. nothing will happen when user clicks on the main window). Is that correct? My question is how can firefox did its modal dia...
I'm trying to sort a column of data in a GTK tree view non-alphabetically. I can't seem to find a function in the GTK+ libraries that cant do such a thing. Does anyone here know of a way to do this?
