Yes, it works very fine, except that warning message, so I am lucky!

In my gui I have pulldown menu, h and vrulers, a panel in the left side
and a message window at bottom. The scrolled window with the drawing area
at middle.
On the drawing area (scrolled window) I will popup dialogs
for example a rule base editor so that membership functions can be drawn
on the drawing area at the same time. There are several other dialogs, too.
>What you want to do is create a Window widget with
gtk_window_new (GTK_WINDOW_POPUP);
I've tried that - oh what I haven't - but I can't get the entries editable.
I can't get it placed either.

Does this mean that your advise is to create
gtk_window_new (GTK_WINDOW_POPUP);
instead of
gtk_window_new (GTK_WINDOW_TOPLEVEL);
or how I should understand it?
>and then putthe contents inside the scrolled window.
The only content in the scrolled window what I need is just the drawing area.
>You'll have to duplicate the dialog widget by hand,
I didn't understand.
Thanks a lot. Maybe you will respond.
