Thanks for your response, I appreciate it. Then is the best way
to do it to forget about the GnomeCanvas and just use gdk commands?
For instance, could I make a bitmap of a polygon, and then use that to
screen off an image, and the result would have the same effect as
sticking a pixmap in a polygon? I just don't want to waste time
trying to do something in a way that can't be done or in an obviously
stupid way.
For instance, I orginally wrote my program (a spherical pager,
see http://www.stanford.edu/~bescoto/tmp/sphere-pager.jpg for current
screenshot) using Tkinter, but then switched it to Gtk because I was
under the impression that GnomeCanvas had (working) anti-aliased
graphics and polygons I could stick pictures in...
