The document dialog crashes because it doesn't exist. In the gtk frontend, the xforms dialog is invoked for those dialogs that haven't been done in gtk yet. For some reason the xforms document dialog crashes in the gtk frontend: there's no reason to worry, since this will become a none-issue when the gtk document dialog is done. In fact, the gtk document dialog is what I'm working on at the moment. Really, really slowly. Damn real life. As for the scrolling, please go ahead and try to fix that. I worked on it a while ago, but couldn't quite figure out what order things were getting called in, got frustrated and gave up in favour of other things. The relevant code is in src/frontends/gtk/GWorkArea.C, particularly the GWorkArea::setScrollbarParams and any others that touch the vscrollbar_ widget's associate adjustment object. Oh, and by the way, I agree about a GTK+ frontend being a good thing :-) But I'm a rabid, foaming at the mouth GNOME user, so people probably shouldn't listen to what I say. John
