Hi I am trying to figure out how gtkmm works. So I am just "extending" the functionality of the hello program found in the gtkmm tutorial:

Code: (Plaintext)
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10	int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { Gtk::Main kit(argc, argv); Gtk::Window window; Gtk::Main::run(window); return 0; }

I was trying to find a way to make my window unresizable from the user. So according to the documentation the "set_resizable()" does the job. But when I try it the resulting window is really really small maybe 1x1 pixel. I tried using "resize()" but nothing changes.So here's the code:

Code: (Plaintext)
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12	#include <gtkmm.h> int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { Gtk::Main kit(argc, argv); Gtk::Window window; window.set_resizable(false); window.resize(256,256); Gtk::Main::run(window); return 0; }

Solved. All I needed to do is add() to the window a container widget.

EDIT: I am sorry, I solved it some other way. I used window.set_size_request() instead of window.resize().
