But I have to load my own image, haven't I? If the theme changes, I
cannot change the image. And if I hardcode
paths to the icons for gnome icons, those icons could be installed in
another dir in a different system. So what I really
wanted is to load a Gtk::BuiltinStockID and remove the text. What you
answered me is what I've done for now, but I'd like
to know if it's possible the other way. Thank you.
