[Gtk-sharp-list] problems with GdkWindow

[Charles Iliya Krempeaux]

Hello,

If I remember correctly,....  You have to "Show" (or "ShowAll")
your Widget/Window/Whatever before a Gdk.Window is created.

So... try the following...

                Application.Init();

                win.ShowAll();

                Gtk.Window win = new Gtk.Window("scrolling");
                Gdk.Window gdkwin = win.GdkWindow;

                Application.Run();

(Where the Gdk.Window stuff comes after the "ShowAll".)

Hope that helps.


See ya
