Thank you for giving this some thought. I think it is not the case however that the gtk_widget_show_all() call causes the "widget to be realized" in gtk-speak, it just sets a flag on the widget to say it should be visible (I am guessing). I think I have just made a breakthrough with my problem however - setting the configure-event signal handler on the parent GtkWindow widget instead of the GtkLayout window it contains causes it to fire off. I have tried this with the scroll-event too and that works. Why this should be different from the case where I use a GtkDrawingArea I have no idea, but it looks like I am cooking with gas!
