the deeper response is this: MDI (in the sense of an app creating all of its "windows" inside its "master window") has always been frowned upon by everyone in the *nix community. And in the last 5 years, it has been deprecated even within microsoft, whose new versions no longer do MDI but either used tabbed notebooks or separate windows. reconsider whatever makes you think MDI is a good thing. and then move on. --p _______________________________________________ gtkmm-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtkmm-list
