OK, I did more digging around and it turned out that I wasn't really understanding the situation correctly. Here is what is actually going on: When the main window is constructed, I used gdk.Window.move_resize() to change the size and position of the main window to a user-specified values. When this happens, the size of the GtkTable inside the GtkNotebook changes from their default size. However, the new size does not become "active" until gtk.main() is called, which results in my inability to find a way to get the new size before I have entered the main loop. Unfortunately, as part of the main window construction, I insert a bunch of widgets into the table, which is why I need the its size. Can anyone give me some advice about how to go about getting the table size? -- Mitko Haralanov ========================================== Real computer scientists don't comment their code.
