Re: [gtkmm] project an interface

[pallucchini roberto <r palluk virgilio it>]

ok, i understand... is more simply than what i do.
But i want make with glade the window in two part, the first is
mainWindow where i have a menubar and the space for some forms (a
scrolled-window i mean) next i want make the forms, with glade too, that
will called by menu. When i start to make a new form i need to start
from a gtkWindow! next, i can add this form to the space created into
main_window? 
this is a very simply way to build and modify this forms without touch
the source code, i want try to use only .glade files for the ui.
