I understand what you mean by trial and error, I've been experiencing that myself. I'm glad to hear that I'm not the only one who finds Gtk un-intuitive... it is getting better for me now. Keep in mind that you can also use the "usemarkup" feature on some controls for a bit of text formatting, but only for non-dynamic stuff I think (not gtkEntry) I've found that looking at other applications is helpful. Especially I use the demo apps and the f-spot (the photo editor). best wishes! brad _______________________________________________ Gtk-sharp-list maillist - [email protected] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/gtk-sharp-list
