Re: Sizing Combo Box

[Bobby King <bking321 charter net>]

Owen,

You are absolutely right about using the appropriate GtkEntry
libraries. I discovered my problem arose from attempting to use a table
to lay out the form. Tables seem determined to attach a widget to the
left and right sides of a cell.

I experimented with a horizontal box and GtkEntry libraries and got the
results I was looking for.

Thanks for the help and to all for being tolerant with the missteps of a
GTK newbie.

P. S.
Does anyone know a solution to the FC2 KVM-mouse problem? There are lots
of complaints about this problem on "Linux Questions", but no solutions.
