Hello! I'm programming a small application which gets connected to a
MySQL database to get info and update the database (that part is already
taken care of) and the GUI has the following layout:
/******************************************************/
/ Menu bar
/
/******************************************************/
/tool bar
/
/******************************************************/
/ USER_AREA
/
/ Here I use Gtk::Button's and Gtk::Entry's and /
/ some other widgets to get and display the /
/ database info
/
/
/
/
/
/******************************************************/
/status bar
/
/******************************************************/
What I'm trying to do is to put a background image in the USER_AREA, so
the user can get/update the database info and have a friendly and
good-looking background image.
The images are .jgp and .bmp. I already tried to use Gtk::Image and the
image is displayed properly, but I'd like to put all the Widgets to work
with the database on the USER_AREA where the image is located and I
haven't figured that out yet.
Everything works fine, the only thing I need to do is the background
image. I haven't discovered yet if this is possible or not, in case it's
possible, do you know what Widgets I should use to do this? Or some
reference I can check?
Thank you very much in advance!!
