If you have an internal, private widget that you use as a child in a template, you'll need to ensure that the type system knows about the child widget's type before initializing the template that references it. In order to do that, you should use `g_type_ensure()` inside the instance initialization function of the parent's widget class, right before calling `gtk_widget_init_template()`; for instance: g_type_ensure (hv_meter_get_type ()); This is also what GTK+ itself does: https://git.gnome.org/browse/gtk+/tree/gtk/gtkfilechooserwidget.c#n8598 Ciao, Emmanuele. -- https://www.bassi.io [@] ebassi [@gmail.com] _______________________________________________ gtk-app-devel-list mailing list gtk-app-devel-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-app-devel-list
