Thanks.
I doubt that ::scale() will work for you like that - it modifies the rendering context for some of the more elaborate drawing functions by applying a scaling transform, but AFAIK none of the basic widgets are affected by the transform. And you would not want them to be, as that would stretch/squeeze the widget, nit re-draw it with its axes flipped. That would have a pretty nasty effect on text rendering, for example... What we normally do is detect the rotation event from xrandr, and when we see the display flip from portrait to landscape we walk the widget tree calling widget->resize(x,y,w,h); on each widget to reset its size/position for the new display layout. Then at the end of the tree-walk, call redraw() on the outermost window and it all magically flips to the new layout... There may be some better way, but I don't know what it is. This way is not that hard though. SELEX Galileo Ltd Registered Office: Sigma House, Christopher Martin Road, Basildon, Essex SS14 3EL A company registered in England & Wales.
