Hi, Carlos
Where do you use your drawing operation? As GTK suggested (like
GtkDrawingArea), you have to do it in "expose_event":
* The "expose_event" signal to handle redrawing the contents of the widget.
Here you can have several if's:
if (something)
draw_lines();
else
draw_other_lines();
"something" can be a simple enum, or gboolean, which is assigned
elsewhere. By the way, after changing it, you can send signals by
yourself, to redraw your widget.
Good luck,
Vlad Volodin
