Thank you for the reply. I tried following the example here: http://developer.gnome.org/gtkmm-tutorial/3.0/sec-draw-images.html.en to test out using a Pixbuf in a Drawing area, but got a few compile-time errors (n.b. I'm using gtkmm 3.0):
error: ‘class Gdk::Pixbuf’ has no member named ‘render_to_drawable’ error: ‘get_style’ was not declared in this scope error: ‘RGB_DITHER_NONE’ is not a member of ‘Gdk’ I had a look in the class reference (http://developer.gnome.org/gtkmm/3.1/classGdk_1_1Pixbuf.html) and couldn't see render_to_drawable. Has this been depreciated in gtkmm 3? If so, what's the appropriate way to do this now?

It is possible to resize a Pixbuf to the size of the DrawingArea and render it in a callback plugged to the expose_event signal. But I don't known if it is the best way! ;) yann On 02/08/11 12:51, Thomas Harty wrote: > I want to put an image into a box in such a way that the image will > shrink to fit into empty space in the box, whilst preserving its aspect > ratio.
