GDK drawing problem

["cowboy cowboy" <yong_zhy hotmail com>]

HI, all
I am design a little program using GTK. I am new to GTK so I don't know how 
to do it. The requirements of the project  are given below:

a gtkwindow splited into two parts (left and right), several toggle buttons 
on the right cell. When I  click one button, some basic primitives will be 
drawn on the left cell; if I click it again, those primitives drawn by this 
button will be hidden.

I have generated the GUI using glade and modified something in interface.c, 
but it doesn't do what I want.  ( I haven't added any event handler to those 
buttons.)
eg:
I only  want the background of left cell be green, right cell remains. But I 
don't know when and how to get a GdkGC only for left part.

Can anyone give a suggestion on how to remove the primitives already drawn 
on screen?

thanks
