Thank you for this. I thought I had tried that, but obviously not.

You need to add a container first to the window (like a Gtk::Box or
Gtk::Grid), then add the DrawingArea and other stuff to that
container.
The Window can only have one child (single-item container).

I am (still) a newbie at gtkmm and have been experimenting with cairomm. In
the tutorial the graphics are added to the window through a drawing area.
When I do this, I cannot add other widgets to the window (labels/buttons).
However, if I add the graphics directly to the window (that is the
"on_draw" function applies to the window itself), it is possible to add
other widgets (in an eventbox).
So: my questions are these: What is the advantage of using a drawing area
for adding graphics (in this case custom decoration)? and Is there some way
to add widgets to a window that contains a drawingarea that I have missed.
Thanks.
