Re: gtk_connect_signal_object HELP PLEASE !

You just had the widgets swapped in the signal connect call.  The way I think
about this kind of signal handling is "the event on the drawing area (first
object) should be reported on the status bar (second object)."

Original:

  gtk_signal_connect_object(GTK_OBJECT (status_bar)
                           ,"motion_notify_event"
                           ,(GtkSignalFunc) motion_notify_event 
                           ,GTK_OBJECT (drawing_area));
New:

  gtk_signal_connect_object(GTK_OBJECT (drawing_area)
                           ,"motion_notify_event"
                           ,(GtkSignalFunc) motion_notify_event 
                           ,GTK_OBJECT (status_bar));
