Thanks John, To be honest, all I'm trying to do is create a button whose label font can be changed on demand. I've managed to achieve it by using an empty button with a label on top, except that the label doesn't always stay on top! I'm probably being incredibly dim but I couldn't find a way to do this with a standard gtk button. I could change the label's text quite easily but not its font. Am I missing something very obvious?
