Re: GtkTextView and expose-event

["Mohit Kumar" <mohit kumar gmail com>]

I worked on this problem for some time and found the solution.

 

First of all, apologies for not reporting the issue correctly, the issue was with the GtkEntry and not GtkTreeView.

 

Now coming to the problem, the issue was that in the callback for the expose-event on the widget,

 

static void expose_event_callback(GtkWidget *widget, GdkEventExpose* event, gpointer user_data)

{

....

}
 

I was drawing to widget->window where as I should have drawn to the event->window.

 

Thanks,

Mohit

Hi All,

 

I am trying to write a text on a GtkTextView using gdk_darw_layout at expose-event. The expose-event connects to the widget using the g_signal_connect_after call. I have everything that is required, i.e. the pangolayout, x,y coordinates to be displayed etc. What I get is that in the Resultant UI, the text that I want to draw is clipped by the area in which I can enter text. Can't I paint on that area?

 

Thanks,

Mohit
