Hi Robert,
perhaps it is not the usual way to imic zooming, but when you reduce
the destination width and height the image becomes smaller and that is
what I do with substracting a factor. At startup the factor is always
0, so that cannot cause the problem. I think that the prob lem lies
more in the fact that at the moment I want to display the image it is
still not fully loaded and I suspect that using the call "mage =
Gdk::Pixbuf::create_from_file("path and dir of picture);
" a thread is started to load te file. Not a problem, but I need to
know when the thread has finnished
Thanks
Kees

Why on earth are you SUBTRACTING something called "factor"?
Normally this goes well, but sometimes I get the error and crash of the
app The errmsg is :
GdkPixbuf-CRITICAL **: gdk_pixbuf_scale_simple: assertion `dest_width >
0' failed.
What is causing this error and how to avoid it??
What's causing it is that you're passing a negative (or zero) width,
probably due to the way you're subtracting your scaleFactor. Without
seeing the rest of the code we can't possibly know what you're putting
in that variable, but if the name is anything like honest it's not
something you'd want to subtract.
However, I wouldn't like to imply any certainty that the error is
related in any way to a "crash".
