Hi everybody. I want to use a GtkDialog to show a message in my application when the user clicks a particular button; I tried to implement this dialog in the program, but it appears only when the action is finished, and not when it begins. I insert here a snippet of the source code:
/* dialog created in the main function */ appdata->dialog = gtk_dialog_new_with_buttons(NULL, GTK_WINDOW(appdata->window), GTK_DIALOG_NO_SEPARATOR && GTK_DIALOG_DESTROY_WITH_PARENT, NULL); appdata->dialogLabel = gtk_label_new(""); gtk_box_pack_start(GTK_BOX(GTK_DIALOG(appdata->dialog)->vbox), appdata->dialogLabel, TRUE, TRUE, 0); /* dialog showed in the open_camera function (associated to the button) */ gtk_label_set_text(GTK_LABEL(appdata->dialogLabel), "Opening camera..."); gtk_widget_show_all(appdata->dialog); start_pipeline(appdata); add_camera_tab(appdata); gtk_widget_hide_all(appdata->dialog); I want the dialog to be showed before the start_pipeline() is called, but it appears for a samll time only after the add_camera_tab() is finished, then it is hidden. I don't know how to accomplish my task (I'm really really new to the dialog widget :-) ). Thanks in advance.
