sorry, i forgto the code was online hidden away somewhere...

======================
sub on_mencoder_output_show_button_clicked
{
        $::widgets->{'mencoder_output_frame'}->show_all;
        $::widgets->{'mencoder_output_show_button'}->hide;
}                
        
sub on_mencoder_output_hide_button_clicked
{
        $::widgets->{'mencoder_output_show_button'}->show;
        $::widgets->{'mencoder_output_frame'}->hide;
}
======================

And I also didn't say it was gtk2, my bad... (and not set_visibility,...doh!)

well these are the two callbacks, one for each button running on a click event,
so there's no outstanding events possible afaik, the interface is repsonding
absolutely fine, and i also have an idle callback to go through events pending
too. it's all so so basic... but the button just doesn't show until the mouse
goes over it.... i can't think of anything to do!

thanks

chris
