Re: GdkPixmap

[John Hitt <jhitt kanji dyndns org>]

I believe that the GdkWindow *window is there so that the pixmap
creation knows what colormap to allocate the colors from.  It
is not the actual location that the pixmap will end up being.

So, you would do.. 

   {
    GdkBitmap *mask;
    GdkPixmap *pixmap_data;
    GtkWidget *pixmap;
    pixmap_data = gdk_pixmap_create_from_xpm ((GdkWindow *)Mainwindow->window,
	                                 &mask, trans_color, filename);
    pixmap = gtk_pixmap_new (pixmap_data, mask);
   }
    and then if you already have an HBox created called 'hbox',
   
        gtk_box_pack_start_defaults (GTK_BOX (hbox), pixmap);
   
    or don't use the defaults, whichever you prefer.
