[Glade-users] Help with dialog box

[email at micahcarrick.com (Micah Carrick)]

I find the easiest way to run a dialog you've created in glade is to use 
the gtk_dialog_run just like any other dialog. Check out my example at 
http://gtkforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=53 which uses the font and color 
dialogs in glade. If you create your own dialog in glade, be sure to 
assign action enums to any non-stock buttons you add to the action area 
so that you can check which button was pressed.
