Why it is wrong if it works? I'm the newbie for Gtk :). The _treeProperties
in a.m. example is the widget that is drawn incorrectly so I redraw it each
time when paned gets expose.

I've tried to look on SizeAllocate - in mono gtk# handbook there is nothing.
There is some info in gtk+ (for the beginners an Allocation in the widget
sounds more like something to do with memory :)).

The next code worked well:

==============
...
_gtkTreeProperties.SizeAllocated +=new
SizeAllocatedHandler(_OnTreePropertiesSizeAllocated);
...

private void OnTreePropertiesSizeAllocated(object o, SizeAllocatedArgs args)
{
	_gtkTreeProperties.QueueDraw();
}
...
==============
