Which version of fltk are you using? When I try and create a Fl_Box widget using fluid, the boxtype seems to be deaulting to FL_NO_BOX... And in any case, you can always set it to what you like in the Styles tab of the widgets properties dialog, or you can over ride the box type by putting the type you want into the "Extra Code" section on the C++ tab of the widgets properties. I'd guess either of these approaches should give the control you need? > I was trying to keep the appearance under the control of > the Widget itself, but I guess that's not possible without > abandoning FLUID altogether. Well, I think you *can* set the box type the way you want from within fluid - and you can always change it programmatically at run time anyway, then force a redraw.... that should work too! _______________________________________________ fltk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.easysw.com/mailman/listinfo/fltk
