Hello,
> Make a background pixmap the same size/depth
> bgPixmap = gdk_pixmap_new(drawArea->window,

> Set the background pixmap as the background of the drawing areas window

I've tried this piece of code. I have added it immediately after the
construction of the drawing area, i.e.
drawing_area = gtk_drawing_area_new ();
gtk_drawing_area_size (GTK_DRAWING_AREA (drawing_area),
image_width, image_height);
gtk_box_pack_start (GTK_BOX (main_vbox), drawing_area, TRUE, TRUE, 0);
off_screen = gdk_pixmap_new (drawing_area->window,
drawing_area->allocation.width,
drawing_area->allocation.height,
-1);
gdk_window_set_back_pixmap (drawing_area->window, off_screen, 0);
When I run the application, the following messages are printed:
Gdk-CRITICAL **: file gdkpixmap.c: line 62 (gdk_pixmap_new): assertion
`(window != NULL) || (depth != -1)' failed.
Gdk-CRITICAL **: file gdkwindow.c: line 1249 (gdk_window_set_back_pixmap):
assertion `window != NULL' failed.
Why? At which time is drawing_area->window initialised? Is it necessary to
show the app window before initialising the pixmap?
(sorry for the newbie questions... it's my very first GTK app)
