Re: Scrolling a Cairo drawing-area or Gtk layout
I did some testing of the code and also found that getting scroll bars to appear was not so easy. The only way that I could get them to appear was to modify the code with a container layout of: layout2-viewport-scrolled window-window2. Here is the section of the code that I altered. * window2 = gtk_window_new(GTK_WINDOW_TOPLEVEL); layout2 = gtk_layout_new(NULL, NULL); GtkWidget *sw = gtk_scrolled_window_new (NULL, NULL); GtkWidget *viewport = gtk_viewport_new (NULL,NULL); gtk_scrolled_window_set_policy (sw, GTK_POLICY_ALWAYS, GTK_POLICY_ALWAYS); gtk_widget_set_size_request (layout2, 800, 600); g_signal_connect(G_OBJECT(layout2), draw, G_CALLBACK(on_draw_event), NULL); g_signal_connect(G_OBJECT(layout2), destroy, G_CALLBACK(gtk_widget_destroy), NULL); gtk_window_set_default_size(GTK_WINDOW(window2), 600, 400); gtk_window_set_title(GTK_WINDOW(window2), Graph); gtk_container_add(GTK_CONTAINER (viewport), layout2); gtk_container_add(GTK_CONTAINER (sw), viewport); gtk_container_add(GTK_CONTAINER (window2), sw); gtk_widget_show_all(window2); *** I am using GTK3 and the documentation says that specifically including the viewport is not needed as it *should* be included automatically when it is needed. But that was not my experience in this case. I also agree with Damien that the goal of the code is unclear. You cannot scroll to a part of the plot that is not drawn. In the code above, you can only scroll around within the dimensions of layout2. Is that what you wanted? jim charlton On 15-07-27 01:10 AM, Damien Caliste wrote: Hello, Le 21/07/2015, Roger Matthews roger.matth...@hotmail.com a écrit : which results from a simple straight line equation, and*/ /* that extends beyond the bounds of the window.

RE: Scrolling a Cairo drawing-area or Gtk layout
Hi Damien Caliste, Jim Charlton, and Pramithesh, that has worked and here is the code I used:window2 = gtk_window_new(GTK_WINDOW_TOPLEVEL);gtk_window_set_default_size(GTK_WINDOW(window2), 1000, 800);grid2 = gtk_grid_new();darea = gtk_drawing_area_new();gtk_widget_set_size_request(darea, 3000, 2000);gtk_grid_attach(GTK_GRID (grid2), darea, 0, 0, 1, 1);g_signal_connect(G_OBJECT(darea), draw, G_CALLBACK(on_draw_event), NULL);g_signal_connect(G_OBJECT(darea), destroy, G_CALLBACK(gtk_widget_destroy), NULL);swin2 = gtk_scrolled_window_new(NULL, NULL);gtk_container_set_border_width(GTK_CONTAINER (swin2), 5);gtk_container_add(GTK_CONTAINER (swin2), grid2);box2 = gtk_box_new (TRUE, 5);gtk_box_pack_start (GTK_BOX (box2), swin2, TRUE, TRUE, 5);gtk_container_add (GTK_CONTAINER (window2), box2);gtk_widget_show_all (window2); Date: Mon, 27 Jul 2015 10:10:27 +0200 From: damien.cali...@cea.fr To: gtk-app-devel-list@gnome.org Subject: Re: Scrolling a Cairo drawing-area or Gtk layout Hello, Le 21/07/2015, Roger Matthews roger.matth...@hotmail.com a écrit : which results from a simple straight line equation, and*/ /* that extends beyond the bounds of the window.
