RE: Inner window size issue

[Nikolaj Kiær Thygesen <Nikolaj Thygesen ciber dk>]

    Well, I think my problem is somewhat like the one of Mr. Kost. I'm doing a photo retouching package, and 
when initially opening the window of an image, I'd like to fit the window to the image, but since the user 
might zoom the image in and out, the scrollbars may pop up all the sudden.
    I did look into the geometry-stuff which seems to deal with min- (size requests) and max-sizes, but I'd 
like for the user to be able to freely resize the window, so setting a min-size the size of the image is not 
really what I want. Some of your other ideas presented may make sence, and I'll look into those. Still if 
anyone has alternative suggestions, I'd very much like to hear about them.

I have understood it like this: you have a GtkImage inside a
GtkScrolledWindow. The GtkScrolledWindow should be just large enough to
allow the GtkImage to be entirely visible, i.e. there is no need to
scroll the GtkImage (the contents of the GtkScrolledWindow).

Pardon me, but why is there a GtkScrolledWindow at all if you apparently
intend to avoid the need of scrolling inside the bitmap (because it's
entirely visible)? Wouldn't just removing the GtkScrolledWindow and
placing the GtkImage directly into the container fulfill your demand?
