nope, its much more complex than that. i raised this issue on the gtk-list a couple of years ago. neither havoc, owen or any other gtk developers seemed to agree that NEVER/NEVER made any sense. i had to use a hacked version of gtkscrolledwindow in my code that changes the way size requisitions are made for scrolled windows without scrollbars. i don't believe that simply hiding them will work - the scrolledwindow code makes quite a lot of assumptions about sizing/presence of these widgets. --p _______________________________________________ gtkmm-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtkmm-list
