Dear Tomas,

you perfectly understood my problem. However, I think your proposition
does not perfectly match my needs. First, I write portable code. I
haven't checked yet but I guess gnome widgets won't run under windows.
Moreover, I don't use gnome libs for now and I think starting using them
for this only widget would result in heavier application for little
service gain.

The functionnality I requested should probably be possible whith either
GDK or GTK... Do you claim this is not possible ?

Thank you very much for your answer anyway, I will have to check the GTK
ports and maybe find other information threre...
Best regards,

Yann Renard
