Re: how to set treeview and drawarea in same position?

[Tristan Van Berkom <vantr touchtunes com>]

        Widgets can't overlap in gtk unless
they are GtkWindows (parent of all widgets in a screen
heirarchy). You can add widgets inside other widgets _only_
if the other widgets are GtkContainer implementations.(example
GtkWindow, GtkFixed, GtkScrolledWindow, Gtk[HV]Box ...).

You might want to experiment adding all your widgets to
GtkWindows independantly and then adding your GtkWindows
to a toplevel GtkWindow. (I'm not sure if that works)

Cheers,
