That is the correct behaviour for the size_request() method (it returns the ammount of space the widget requests). You want the space allocated to the widget. That can be found with the get_allocation() method: x, y, width, height = widget.get_allocation() James. -- Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] WWW: http://www.daa.com.au/~james/ ___ pygtk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.daa.com.au/mailman/listinfo/pygtk

This will only give you good data after the allocation step has been done for the widget. Isn't that only for setting the size? I'd assumed that pygtk didn't have something like this widget-allocation.width/height/x/y and have been using a little C binding to get this.

After the widget has been allocated some space, you should be able to use the get_allocation() method. Please help me!

Re: [pygtk] how to get widget size?
You would need to access the allocation member of the GtkWidget class, which is currently not wrapped. Expect to see it in pygtk-0.6.0 James. -- Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] WWW: http://www.daa.com.au/~james/ On Wed, 21 Apr 1999, Rick Ree wrote: This may be a dumb question, but how can you find out the dimensions of a widget? I am drawing on a canvas, and would like to lay out some objects according to how much real estate I have to work with: i.e., if the user has maximized the window the objects will be more spread out. I've perused gtk.py looking for a get_size() of some such, but no luck.
