I have drawn pictures inside a drawing area widget and also put several drawn button widgets. I use "XCopyArea" to copy the pictures (done with the Xlib functions) from a pixmap to the drawing area. Then, my drawn buttons become hidden by the pictures. If there any possibility to tell the drawing area: "Now, redraw your children (the drawn buttons) to get them visible". Thanks for any help. frederic. ------- Frederic Pierresteguy ----- Bull S.A France --------------------- Software Dev.
