Thanks for your response Eric! I will post the Glade interface with associated code on my site for download so you can testrun the code yourself, most job is done in the widget- pythonCallback-area. I am not sure correct Glade widget/object callback parameters are used. I do verify functionality with some stubs, file I/O not done.
I have no complete understanding of the OO-mechanisms involved so there might be some quirks there... This can of course be inspected in the Glade design tool by loading the associated file. There will also be a spec and a project log file intended for code efforts/bug-corrections, I guess there is standard procedures for that but it's out of scope for me right now. I'll be back! / Roger > Date: Tue, 2 Oct 2012 14:49:41 -0400 > From: "Eric H.
