Here is my generated code: // Container child GtkAlignment.Gtk.Container+ContainerChild this.scrolledwindow1 = new Gtk.ScrolledWindow(); this.scrolledwindow1.CanFocus = true; this.scrolledwindow1.Name = "scrolledwindow1"; this.scrolledwindow1.ShadowType = ((Gtk.ShadowType)(1)); // Container child scrolledwindow1.Gtk.Container+ContainerChild Gtk.Viewport w65 = new Gtk.Viewport(); w65.ShadowType = ((Gtk.ShadowType)(0)); // Container child GtkViewport3.Gtk.Container+ContainerChild this.textview1 = new Gtk.TextView(); this.textview1.CanFocus = true; this.textview1.Name = "textview1"; w65.Add(this.textview1); this.scrolledwindow1.Add(w65); this.GtkAlignment.Add(this.scrolledwindow1); this.frame2.Add(this.GtkAlignment); Apparently there is a Gtk.Viewport that gets created, and that is what the ScrolledWindow contains. Checking the gui.stetic file showed that Stetic is adding in the Viewport. It seems that Stetic automatically assumes add_with_viewport instead of a normal add, and creates a Viewport in gui.stetic. Since a TextView is something that handle's it's own scrolling, this Viewport is just mucking things up. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction, but I still don't know how to use the Stetic designer to accomplish a TextView inside a ScrolledWindow. I looked for some sort of configuration option, but couldn't find one. I can probably just work around the issue by creating a custom "scrolledtextview" widget where I do my add()'s in code (without Stetic), but it is starting to look like there's a bug somewhere. Thanks for the help. --Jestin _______________________________________________ Gtk-sharp-list maillist - [email protected] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/gtk-sharp-list
