k3d has nothing on ardour (http://ardour.org/), where we have upwards of 2000 widgets visible on the screen sometimes. from a theoretical perspective, the design in GFC is interesting and appears more efficient in terms of space. however, i cannot honestly say that i have ever detected the size of the virtual function tables in gtkmm to be a problem, or even a hint of a problem. --p _______________________________________________ gtkmm-list mailing list gtkmm-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtkmm-list
