Custom widget and propagate on_expose_event

[Kees Kling <ckling upcmail nl>]

Hi,

I'm writing a sort of custom defined widget, which consists of several 
standard widgets.

It is derived from  Gtk::Frame and has a Gtk::VBox . In the VBox I  
placed some buttons, labels and a drawing  area. So far everything works 
quit well. For purposes like raising and moving this widget, I thought 
it was better to give the widget a Gdk:: window and I added this in the 
on_realize() method of this widget. Now when I run it only the 
Gdk::window  is shown, so I have to add something in the on_expose_event 
to let the widget draws itself completely, but I don't know what.

pls help

regards
