I can't seem to be allowed to call a connect on the signal I want (popdown event would have been quite high on my list) ... maybe this is a python issue? That maybe I should be doing the connect against the parent widget? Anyone know if this is true, and (if so) how I might access the parent? If it's true, maybe I can read that last one in my python documentation. > > Tom > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chuck Robey | Interests include C & Java programming, FreeBSD, [EMAIL PROTECTED] | electronics, communications, and SF/Fantasy.
