Re: Known issues about SpinButtons?

[Bill Walz <zlawbill yahoo com>]

Hi Chris, 

I do not have a solution, but I used to have this very
problem with Glade.  On the widget properties dialog
box the various width, size, etc boxes with spinners
would go crazy. The number of columns in a table was
really bad, the window would just blow up. I just
started typing values into them when I wanted to
change them.

I must admit I have never used spinners in a
gtk[2]-perl program.
