Thank you for pointing me at that ... I will check it out
and see if I can figure out what I'm doing wrong ... since
I'm don't seem to be the only one wrestling with this stuff,
I'm attaching a code sample of what I'm doing ... maybe
someone will notice some obvious mistakes (given
enough eyeballs, all bugs are shallow :-) ) ...


#define MENU_VIEW_BRANCH "/View"
#define MENU_VIEW_2DPLANE     "/View/2D Plane"
#define MENU_VIEW_2DPLANE_AC  "<control>1"

#define MENU_VIEW_3DWIRE      "/View/3D Wire"
#define MENU_VIEW_3DWIRE_AC   "<control>2"

#define MENU_VIEW_3DHEIGHT    "/View/3D Height"
#define MENU_VIEW_3DHEIGHT_AC "<control>3"

#define MENU_VIEW_3DLIGHT     "/View/3D Light"
#define MENU_VIEW_3DLIGHT_AC  "<control>4"


char                     *s;
Glib_Hash           *d_menuHash;   // menu item pointers, path is key


s = d_mNames[d_nameCount++] = strdup (MENU_VIEW_BRANCH);
d_menuHash->insert (s, d_itemFactory->create_item (s, 0, "<Branch>", 0));
s = d_mNames[d_nameCount++] = strdup (MENU_VIEW_2DPLANE);
d_menuHash->insert (s, d_itemFactory->create_item
     (s, MENU_VIEW_2DPLANE_AC, "<RadioItem>",
     ItemFactoryConnector<TFWindow, string>(this,&viewMenuCallback, s)));
s = d_mNames[d_nameCount++] = strdup (MENU_VIEW_3DWIRE);
d_menuHash->insert (s, d_itemFactory->create_item
     (s, MENU_VIEW_3DWIRE_AC, MENU_VIEW_2DPLANE,
     ItemFactoryConnector<TFWindow, string>(this,&viewMenuCallback, s)));
s = d_mNames[d_nameCount++] = strdup (MENU_VIEW_3DHEIGHT);
d_menuHash->insert (s, d_itemFactory->create_item
     (s, MENU_VIEW_3DHEIGHT_AC, MENU_VIEW_2DPLANE,
     ItemFactoryConnector<TFWindow, string>(this,&viewMenuCallback, s)));
s = d_mNames[d_nameCount++] = strdup (MENU_VIEW_3DLIGHT);
d_menuHash->insert (s, d_itemFactory->create_item
     (s, MENU_VIEW_3DLIGHT_AC, MENU_VIEW_2DPLANE,
     ItemFactoryConnector<TFWindow, string>(this,&viewMenuCallback, s)));


This works except the problem I alluded to before. If I can figure out what I'm
doing
wrong, I'll get back to this list ...

 Funny this came up now, I am just starting to change over my manually
created menus to the itemfactory this morning and I have a group of
radio_menuitems in it. I have been playing with an example from Eric
Harlow's book http://www.bcpl.net/~eharlow/book/ch5.tar.gz that I had to
add the paths to for them to work properly but it seems to work all
right for me. It's not gtk-- but it should be similar enough. Maybe a
bug in gtk-- ?

HTH,
