Post: RE: Building command in a looping construct

Thanks. I was hung up on how to create the command string when it wasn't needed. I set up a list and that is working great.

I tried this in my code: self.queue_draw() And it seems to be what I was looking for, kind of a super self.show_all().  When I run it the screen is updated. I also found the following (haven't teste...

Post: RE: [pygtk] fixed.move not working as expected

FWIW, I did try it using a GObject.timeout_add (every 300ms) and the result was the same. I'll look at this some more in the AM.

I suspect this issue is with matchbox. I've been able to work around the dialog issue. Using a fixed container on my main window I can control size/location. Had to use a GObject.timeout to help em...

Post: RE: GTK main window calling a main window

I have been able to insert a grid into the box on a dialog. However I cannot get it to restrict the size (window is the full width of the main window) or control its location (always on bottom).

Yes, I could do that.  I guess I am a bit fixated on issubset as it seems it should filter any junk.  I'm starting to suspect that there's a control character sneaking in and issubset isn't handling i...
