Scrollbars, multikey characters, Cut/paste... Hard prbs...

[Paul Cheyrou <Paul Cheyrou-Lagreze inrialpes fr>]

Hi all,

As we're stuck for sometimes in those problems,
I'd like to konw if someone already had those type of problem or got tricks 
to help us, in GTK 1.2 :

1) SCROLLBARS:

When my app begins, 
My resize code is executed but my scrollbars doesn't reflect my app until I 
move the cursor out of the page or resize the page.

/* this is the resize code */
tmpw = (GtkAdjustment *)gtk_object_get_data (GTK_OBJECT(hscroll), 
"Adjustment");
       tmpw->lower = 0;
       tmpw->upper = l;
       tmpw->page_size = width;
       tmpw->page_increment = Xpos-13;
       tmpw->step_increment = 13;
       tmpw->value = Xpos;
       gtk_widget_show_all (GTK_WIDGET(hscroll));
       gtk_widget_queue_draw (GTK_WIDGET(hscroll));

It is connected with value_changed
Any Idea ?

2) Multikey charachters

When user wanna enter a character like ï, î or é è à
that needs to press two keys one by one, it doesn't work at all :
My app display the circumflexe glyph and then the normal carachter instead of 
joining them.
I've done all set_local and so on stuff I can, but it doesn't work...

Any Idea ?

3) Copy, Cut&paste directly in GTK instead of an actual X cut&paste :
I've found this, but doesn't apply much in my architecture app,
http://www.gtk.org/tutorial/sec-retrievingtheselection.html and
http://www.gtk.org/tutorial/sec-supplyingtheselection.html,
Is There another way to manage it ?
