Re: GDK question

[James Henstridge <james daa com au>]

GdkPixmap's are actually special GdkWindows that are not displayed to the
screen and do not have to be redrawn when they get obscured.  So you can
use the standard gdk_window functions for some of this.  What you are
probably looking for is:
  gdk_window_get_size(pixmap, &width, &height);

The gdk_pixmap_create_from_xpm function will use the current directory to
find the pixmap.  Consider using the gnome_pixmap_file() function to find
the pixmap.
