Re: Label on a button

[Harring Figueiredo <harringf yahoo com>]

 Luciano, 

  Thanks for the hint, but I think that this is not possible. There is no way
to "name" the label -- I am using Glade 6.4 --. Here is the code that Glade
generates.

==========code================
 tmp_toolbar_icon = create_pixmap (window1, "_cdrom.xpm");
  toolbar_start_button = gtk_toolbar_append_element (GTK_TOOLBAR (toolbar1),
                                GTK_TOOLBAR_CHILD_TOGGLEBUTTON,
                                NULL,
                                "Start",
                                "Start Processing Incoming Jobs", NULL,
                                tmp_toolbar_icon, NULL, NULL);
  gtk_widget_set_name (toolbar_start_button, "toolbar_start_button");
 
================================

 the GTK docs says that "Start" will be used to create the label, but it does
not name the label widget itself.

  I tried calling gtk_object_get_data(toolbar_start_button, "Start"); 
  to see if GTK had "named" the widget under the hood, but it fails.

 Any other approach?
