I never done anything like this so please anyone correct me if I am wrong, but.. Have you though about connecting to the widget's draw signal? With it you get a cairo context which one usually draws on but I can imagine you could just as well create a pixbuf miniature. So, get the surface from the cairo context with cairo_get_target, then use gdk_pixbuf_get_from_surface to create the pixbuf. ~infirit _______________________________________________ gtk-app-devel-list mailing list gtk-app-devel-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-app-devel-list
