   I want to set properties for my widget.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<glade-catalog name="myappcatalog" depends="gtk+">
     <glade-widget-classes>
        <glade-widget-class name="sdlwidget" generic-name="sdlwidget"
title="SDL Widget" parent="GtkWindow">
            <properties>
                  <property id="resolution">
                    <displayable-values>
                <value id="640x480" name="640x480"></value>
                <value id="800x600" name="800x600"></value>
                  </displayable-values>
                </property>
            </properties>
        </glade-widget-class>
    </glade-widget-classes>

    <glade-widget-group name="ftr" title="Follow the rabbit">
        <glade-widget-class-ref name="sdlwidget"/>
    </glade-widget-group>
</glade-catalog>


I wonder if I have to write supporting code for this kind of things. It
shouldn't be necessary I guess.
Thanks for your help again.
Sorry, I think I replied to this e-mail your particular e-mail address by
accident.
