Hi Steve,
Sorry for the delay getting back to you following your suggestions on
this. I tried what you suggested and removed the default size
specificiation in Glade. It still didn't work: the window shows up very
small (about 200x300 px) then is resized to my stored-preferences size
during the next refresh.
What did you mean by "Set the size and position after the window is
realized but before is it mapped?" -- how can I do that? I basically
just have the following:
glade = gtk.glade.XML(GLADE_FILE,"browserwin")
self.window = glade.get_widget("browserwin")
if not self.window:
raise RuntimeError("Couldn't load window from glade file")
_display = self.window.get_screen().get_display().get_name()
_geom=self.prefs.getGeometrySizePosition(_display,"browserwin")
if _geom:
self.window.resize(_geom[0],_geom[1])
self.window.move(_geom[2],_geom[3])
self.window.connect("delete_event", self.delete_event)
Cheers
JP

Hi all
The following doesn't seem to work for me unless I switch the
'set_default_size' to 'resize'. Is this because of something I'm doing
with Glade?
self.window = glade.get_widget("browserwin")
_display = self.window.get_screen().get_display().get_name()
# my own routine for the previously saved window position....
_geom=self.prefs.getGeometrySizePosition(_display,"browserwin")
if _geom:
self.window.set_default_size(_geom[0],_geom[1])
#self.window.resize(_geom[0],_geom[1])
self.window.move(_geom[2],_geom[3])
The problem with this approach is that the window first shows up at the
Glade-specified size, then is resized later to the user-preferenced
default size. So somehow I'm failing to 'set_default_size' before the
window is first drawn.
Does this mean I can't use Glade to create a user-preference-sized
window? Is there a better way of doing all this?
Don't set the size in glade?
Set the size and position after the window is realized but before is it
mapped?
Cheers
JP
