Re: How to show the same widget in several containers

[Richard Boaz <riboaz xs4all nl>]

Hi,

Gtk+ explicitly disallows child widgets being parented more than  
once, for good reason.

Make four individual display widgets, and make one pixmap/pixbuf/ 
whatever to contain the picture.  When you make your picture,  
explicitly draw it to each of your display widgets; there is nothing  
wrong with displaying the same image more than once...
