I connected to the delete-event and registered gtk_widget_hide as callback. Re-showing(gtk_widget_show) worked in Debian and crashed in PuppyLinux. Now, I register gtk_widget_hide_on_delete as callback and then the widget won't be destroyed and all is fine.

But at least in Debian the widget is still usable after the delete-event. Regards, Enrico -- Get my GPG key from http://www.uvena.de/pub.key
