Re: Quick question re: gtkbutton and deactivating

[Straker Skunk <straker fox mit edu>]

button_w = gtk_button_new( );

gtk_widget_set_sensitive( button_w, FALSE );


FALSE greys out the button, TRUE enables it again.

This works with all kinds of widgets. If you do this on a top-level window,
for example, it greys out everything in the window. (Great for modal
dialogs!)


Happy hacking,
