Re: reparent a widget

[anguila <anguila gmail com>]

Yes, but I can't create a new widget over them.. If I create a vbox in a place I can't (i don't know how) create a new widget at the same place to toggle with other widget. I know the visibility option, the idea is switch with widgets, but if I can't create new widgets at the same spot i can't hide those widgets.

How can I create two widgets at the same place (in glade3)? Or i should create the second widget in a new window and reparent this new widget with the other? If it is the last case, isn't works the old widget it hides but the new doesn't appears.. and I don't know what is wrong.


Thanks again :)

I know that it exist reparent function that does that. I make de GUI with glade, and all widgets that you create needs a  window parent . How can I create a vbox widget in glade3 without creating a window? Because if I create a window, to put the widget (vbox in this case) that I want to exchange this widget it has a parent (the window), and if it has a parent i can't reparent it.

There is a way to make this with glade? or I should create vbox2 and all those new widgets  without glade?

I presume that a Notebook widget is not appropriate, or you would've gone with that.  ;-)

If you're just toggling between two or three things, you can make them all in glade in the same spot, but only set one of them visible at a time --- the "visible" property handles this.
