Hello all,

I am also new to the Glade comunity. I've done some stuff in Glade 
before and I am also interested in doing some fancy plots. I used the 
GTK-Extra library:

http://gtkextra.sourceforge.net/

to do part of the work using the "custom" widget from glade. The 
GTK-Extra group is working in the conversion of the old library to the 
GTK-2.0 version. So far I guess you can download the code from the CVS, 
which might mean that we may find some bugs during execution.

Maybe this is a good alternative for ploting since you have the zoom 
tool, 3d capabilities, and some other DnD stuff. Maybe you should 
consider that instead.

	Fabio.
