Resizing drawing area

[Cyrus Patel <cyrusp cia com au>]

Hello,      

I'm writing an app that has a drawing area - previously, I added the drawing area                             
       
to my main app and resizing it by connecting the configure_event and expose_event        
signals worked.                                                                                               
         
However, I changed it and now have a fixed container with the drawing area put inside 
it. But how can I resize the drawing area when the fixed container is resized?                                
         
I tried connecting the size_allocate signal to the fixed container - that calls a 
function fixed_container_resized when the fixed area is resized. In the 
fixed_container_resized function I called                            

gtk_container_resize_children(GTK_CONTAINER(fixed));                                                          
         
but this doesn't seem to work. Any ideas why?                                                                 
         
Thanks,
