Hi, I'm trying to add some side panels to an image manipulating application; these panels contain some buttons and they should be hidden when I no longer need them (no need for fancy sliding animation, though): the larger the working area the best. I temporarily implemented each panel with a frame holding the tool widgets (through many other boxes); then the frames are held by a 3 slots hbox, 2 for the panes and one for the drawingarea; when I want to hide a panel I just gtk_widget_hide() the frame. This approach is a bit sloppy in that I don't know when the window manager (BTW I'm developing a windows app) actually hides the widget, so that I can only get the new drawing area size in the expose-event handler. I don't like to have it done there, so I'm asking you: is there another way to implement side panes? Or, is there another way to show and hide them and have it done at a known time? Thanks
