You probably misunderstood my comment.
My wxWidgets is compiled in 2 different directories - one against GTK+2 and one
against GTK+3. So its like this:

wxWidgets -> GTK+2 build
wxWidgets -> GTK+3 build

And I want to switch between those different configuration. So in
essense I need the
configuration of the project to work.

For the quick test I can try to install wxWidgets GTK+2 build and try it
but I really prefer to work with the project configuration. Everything should
be configurable - otherwise it defeats the purpose of IDE.

Let's say my project is called test.
So in the project window I have:

Root branch called "test".
Under it I have 2 branches: po and src - I set up project to have
internationalization.
Under the src branch I have a branch called test.
Under the branch called test I have my source and header files.

So for which branch of the project tree I should change the properties?
I'm asking because I can do that for all branches: root, src and test.

Thank you.
