Complete control on look 'n feel is not a good reason imho. HildonPickerButton + HildonTouchSelector is the recomended way to go, since by using them you'll get a look 'n feel that's standard with other applications in Maemo 5. In addition, hildon.PickerButton.set-image() is not working here so i thought it's probably best to use plain old GTK. That method is supposed to set an image on the button itself, I suppose this is what you need. Why is it not working?

Re: Python + hildon.TouchSelector (with pixbufs)
@ Claudio I just tried it with a PickerButton and it does work quite nicely, so I think I'll switch to that. The only issue with the PickerButton is I can't get .set_image() to work with it -- no matter what I do it just appears this turquoise/blue-green color. I think it may have something to do with the first argument of the PickerButton. Right now I'm initiating the PickerButton like: button = hildon.PickerButton(40, hildon.BUTTON_ARRANGEMENT_VERTICAL) But, maybe it should be: self.select_button = hildon.PickerButton(hildon.SIZE_AUTO, hildon.BUTTON_ARRANGEMENT_VERTICAL) ...the problem is SIZE_AUTO doesn't exist.

Re: Python + hildon.TouchSelector (with pixbufs)
Hi Claudio, Thanks for the response. The reason I'm creating the dialog by hand is because I want complete control over it's look and feel. In addition, hildon.PickerButton.set-image() is not working here so i thought it's probably best to use plain old GTK. Concerning the rest of the problems, I'm going to chalk it up to a bug in the bindings because I seem to be doing everything properly. All of the (working) examples I could found online are using Windows to hold the Selector and not Dialogs, so maybe this is the source of the issue. I'm going to work more today creating a Selector with pixbufs and hope that the scrolling problem will get resolved at some point (I'll file a bug). Of course, a resonse from one of the Python Devs is always welcome ;) P.S. I'm not doing this in C because i don't know how to program in C, only Python.
