Catch the 'delete' signal and ignore it (return gtk.TRUE). That will prevent the widget from being deleted. > Also, in Glade, the dialog box shows "programname X.X" - however when I > bring up the about box from my program, nothing is shown in that space. Set the 'name' and 'version' properties on the GnomeAbout widget before the widget is shown. I can see the logic of not setting the version number in Glade (it changes more often than you want to change your .glade file), but the lack of name setting has always seemed a bit odd, I agree. By the way, the name you want shown in the about box is not necessarily the name string you pass in to the gnome.init() method. It really wants to be the same as whatever the 'human-readable-name' property of GnomeProgram to (if you set that property), but that is getting pretty subtle (not a lot of programs do that).
