Dear all;

I am trying to use gtk in designing a project that has atleast 3 different applications depending on what the cnsumer wants. To do this, I have created a file menu with some of the applications such as "Position", "New Project". Each of these is meant to be independent of the other. I use "activate" to connect the Position but never got connected so decided to use "expose_event" and it now shows the image but only for few second so wonder if anyone has a much better technique or can help solve this problem. Heres is the code.

Code: (C)

I have absolutely no idea what you're trying to do, and the formatting of the code doesn't help.

I am trying to create a widget with the FILE menus: hmcposition, mission1, mission2 and quit. So that when the use clicks FILE then scrolls to any of the missions, the widget should be activated to show a new drawing or shape (e.g. a rectangle) while erasing what was originally there. If you run the code and click quit, the widget quits but if you click hmcPosition, the widget shows the figure its meant to show but only lasts for seconds. This is because I am using "expose_even" instead of "activate". I wonder if there is a way of achieving this. Thanks and looks forward to your response.

I have done exactly that but it doesnt work. By that I mean, I have used
static void position_activated (GtkWidget *widget, GtkMenuItem *position, GtkDrawingArea *da)

And in main, I've changed expose_event to activate and now its stopped showing the polygon. With the expose_event as I was saying, it shows the polygon but only in the menus and lasts as long as the click is on.

Is there a way to activate a menu just as the 'QUIT' menu that will allow the window to change and allow me to see my polygon ?
