Re: Images

[Andreas Bauer <baueran rsise anu edu au>]

If you just want to load and display an image, then I think Gtk::Image
is what you want as opposed to a Pixbuf.  Just add the loaded
Gtk::Image (which seems to work, if I interpret your mail correctly)
then to, say, your window's VBox and all should be well.

If that doesn't work, maybe some code of yours will help to tell why.

Cheers,

Andi.

P.S. Recently I discussed on this list a problem related to converting
Pixbuf and Gtk::Image to each other ("Extract image from Gtk::Image").
You may want to go and look for this thread.

I tried with an incorrect filename and it failed as expected so it wasnt the file. I also tried it by using the create_from_file and that works. It creates pixbuf of the correct size but when i pass it on to the image the image still has a height of 1 even though the pixbuf says 48.
