Yes I know, I don't draw anything in the on_configure_event, the problem is that I have to draw to the drawingarea before it is shown for the first time, and it seems like on_configure_event is executed when the drawingarea is shown for the first time. If click on the notebook page where this drawingarea is and then click on another notebook page, then everything works fine when i do the drawing. If i draw without clicking on the notebook page where the drawingarea is it doesn't work.
