Option Menu

[Ignacio Nodal <inodal teleline es>]

Hi again,

When creating a menu using radio items and showing all toggles with
"gtk_check_menu_item_set_show_toggle(GTK_CHECK_MENU_ITEM
(menu_item),TRUE)", how can I force a different menu item specified by
index to be selected?

I've used gtk_option_menu_set_history(). The value is shown correctly,
but then when I press on the OptionMenu for the first time, it always
show "pressed" the first menu item, not according to what I've passed
using gtk_option_menu_set_history().

How can I make this two values (showed and "programmactly" selected) to
work together?
Here's what I've tried without succeess:
/* *parameter points into a gint, being the index of the menu item I
want to be selected/active */
/* _enum_option is the option menu */

[...]
 menu = gtk_menu_new();
 /* Creating 3 menu items */
 menu_item = gtk_radio_menu_item_new_with_label(group,"Option 1");
 group = gtk_radio_menu_item_group (GTK_RADIO_MENU_ITEM(menu_item));
 gtk_check_menu_item_set_show_toggle(GTK_CHECK_MENU_ITEM
(menu_item),TRUE);
 gtk_menu_append(GTK_MENU (menu), menu_item);
 gtk_widget_show(menu_item);
 
 menu_item = gtk_radio_menu_item_new_with_label(group,"Option 2");
 gtk_check_menu_item_set_show_toggle(GTK_CHECK_MENU_ITEM
(menu_item),TRUE);
 gtk_menu_append(GTK_MENU (menu), menu_item);
 gtk_widget_show(menu_item);
 
 menu_item = gtk_radio_menu_item_new_with_label(group,"Option 3");
 gtk_check_menu_item_set_show_toggle(GTK_CHECK_MENU_ITEM
(menu_item),TRUE);
 gtk_menu_append(GTK_MENU (menu), menu_item);
 gtk_widget_show(menu_item);

 /* Creating option menu and adding it the previous created menu */
 _enum_option = gtk_option_menu_new();
 gtk_option_menu_set_menu(GTK_OPTION_MENU(_enum_option), menu);

 /* Default menu item = "Option 2" */
 *parameter = 1;

[...]
  switch(_type){
  case EnumOptionMenu:
    if (*parameter <= _last_enum){ 
      GtkWidget* menu;
      g_print("*parameter %d\n",*parameter);
      menu =
gtk_option_menu_get_menu(GTK_OPTION_MENU(_enum_option));     
      gtk_menu_set_active(GTK_MENU(menu),*parameter);
     
gtk_option_menu_set_history(GTK_OPTION_MENU(_enum_option),*parameter);
    }
    break;
  }
[...]


When I launch the program "Option 2" is shown correctly. But if I click
the option menu, the menu item which is shown "pressed" is still "Option
1" and not "Option 2". If I set the menu item clicking with the mouse
all works fine.. 
Can anybody help me with this?

Thanks in advance,
