I'm back to GTK1, but now I have another issue. With all the GTK2 changes, it breaks GTK1 from time to time. I'm now getting way less updates for Lazarus due to this. Once I get a revision that works for me, I keep it for a few weeks. PS: I'm not knocking the GTK2 interface developers. :) You guys are doing a great job. The GTK2 interface has improved a lot since a few months back. I would have loved to help wink, but the fpGUI framework is keeping me to busy at the moment. it's a bit hit and miss sometimes, but i think it's improved greatly. i did hit a problem the other night when i tried to compile some win32 code under gtk2. an onshow handler fired before something was shown and caused a crash. i'll look into that one if i get time. i feel that the ide is quite usable in gtk2 (i wrote large parts of an application with it). most of my problems are due to my prolific use of the pagecontrol/tabsheets, though. i'd also love the gtk2 stringgrid to be a bit less sluggish and less flickery. it takes me a long time to understand the code, though, but i'm hoping to improve on it someday. henry _ To unsubscribe: mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe as the Subject archives at http://www.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailarchives
