Re: bitmap in button doesn't appear in 64bit 9.10

Thanks.  After some digging, I managed to find out how to set the settings:

    // Set button/menu images on by default -- 9.10 turned them off
    GtkSettings *settings = gtk_settings_get_default ();
    gtk_settings_set_long_property (settings, "gtk-button-images", 1,
".gtkrc:0"); // I don't understand the significance of the origin param.  I
just saw this on some thread and tried it -- it works...
    gtk_settings_set_long_property (settings, "gtk-menu-images", 1,
".gtkrc:0");

Thanks, again!
