block signal

[Frederic Cazenave <cazenave radar mcgill ca>]

Hi,

on my application, I try to use  gtk_signal_handler_block and
gtk_signal_handler_unblock to
prevent any flickering when I change the size of my window with my
mouse.

So when I select the widget I apply a gtk_signal_block to the
expose_event and my release_button 
function is as follow :

static gint
plot_button_release_event (GtkWidget *widget, GdkEventButton *event)
{

  gint return_val;

  if (Selected != NULL){
    gdk_window_set_cursor(Selected->window, 
                          gdk_cursor_new(GDK_TOP_LEFT_ARROW));
   
gtk_signal_handler_unblock(GTK_OBJECT(widget),PLOT(widget)->configure_id);
    gtk_drawing_area_size
(&(PLOT(widget)->draw),PLOT(widget)->size_x,PLOT(widget)->size_y);
  }
}

with PLOT(widget)->configure_id is the id of the expose_event signal
return 
but gtk_signal_connect and 
PLOT(widget)->size_x and PLOT(widget)->size_y are the new size.

gtk_drawing_area_size should emit a expose event but if I block and
unblock the signal
then it seems the unblock as no effect.
