Re: Gtk::VolumeButton how to change value without emmiting signal?

I am interested what the list will answer.

I had the same question a few years ago and found that it was the wrong 
question. My situation was this: when a value changes (triggered by 
network, program logic, or however) the GUI needs to be updated, and 
updating the GUI of course changes the value. This leads to a recursive 
infinite loop.

Your problem might be a different one. The solution I used was this: the 
function Value::set() (which will be called by the singal_value_changed 
handler) does nothing if there is nothing to be done:

Value< T>::set( const T &t)
{
  if (_t != t)
  {
    _t = t;
    UpdateGUI();
  }
}

Hope this helps,
Mark
