get_widget_derived() might be what you area looking for. Here is some

Murray,

Thanks for the suggestion.  I have used the derived widget for my main window, and that works fine, but is this the only way to add widgets to Glade containers? 

Thanks,

Steve

I went back and derived a ScrolledWindow Class ( m_refGlade->get_widget_derived("myscrolledwindow",myscrolledwindow); ).  Then inside that class I created the tree and the model, and added the tree it to itself.  And sure enough it worked....

Now my question is how come I have to derive a container to add to it?  I should be able to manipulate any widget from glade with the standard m_refGlade->get_widget right?  Hopefully someone can shed some light on this.

Thanks,

Steve
