Hello, I am a newcomer to Gtkmm and this mailing list, I have a question regarding the use of the reparent command using gtkmm-3. I am attempting to add several text labels to the MessageDialog. I wish to position these labels below the dialog-secondary text using a grid to achieve this. The following snippet of code works but gives the following warning. Gtk-WARNING **: Attempting to add a widget with type GtkBox to a container of type gtkmm__GtkWindow, but the widget is already inside a container of type GtkBox, please use gtk_widget_reparent()
I understand that the format for the reparent function is gtk_widget_reparent(original widget,new widget); I am trying to reparent the MessageDialog's vertical box with my new one Every attempt I have made so far has failed... //Snippet of my code // The true in Messagedialog is becuse the Message string contains pango markup Gtk::MessageDialog dialog(*this,Message->c_str(),true,Gtk::MESSAGE_INFO,Gtk::BUTTONS_CLOSE); // some text labels that I wish to add to the MessageDialog Gtk::Label *label1 = Gtk::manage(new Gtk::Label("some text")); Gtk::Label *label2 = Gtk::manage(new Gtk::Label("some more text")); // then the box and grid I wish to add Gtk::Grid *grid = Gtk::manage(new Gtk::Grid); Gtk::Box *vbox = Gtk::manage(new Gtk::Box(Gtk::ORIENTATION_VERTICAL, 0)); vbox = dialog.get_message_area(); // make vbox the new message area // The next line of code is where I have the problem. gtk_widget_reparent(???,???); //What do I place here ? add(*vbox); // add the new vbox vbox->add(*grid); // then the grid grid->attach(*label,0,2,1,1); // finally position the labels grid->attach(*label,1,2,2,1); dialog.set_secondary_text("secondary text"); vbox->show_all(); // display it dialog.run(); I would appreciate any pointers on how I can achieve this. Thank you.
