pyGTK, Buttons and Pixmaps problem

[Fulko van Westrenen]

Hello,

I use pyGTK in a program with ToggleButton and Pixmap.
The problem I try top solve is changing the pixmap for the
two states of the button. Can it be done? (should be possible),
and someone provide me with working code?

The code I use now is (python-2.2, gtk-1.2):

button = gtk.GtkToggleBu tton()
button.connect( "clicked", do_my_thing)
button.show()
pix,mask = gtk.create_pixm ap_from_xpm(win dow,None,'nice. xpm')
pixmap = gtk.GtkPixmap(p ix,mask)
pixmap.show()
button.add(pixm ap)


Can someone tell me how to make it work?

Thanks,
Fulko

For a toggle button, you want to handle the "toggle" signal. Also, for
getting the icon to change between states I think you want to look at the
IconSet and IconSource APIs:

Dear Dave,
Thank you for your hint. I read this forward and back again, but I can't
figure how to apply this. Is there example-code somewhere that shows a
changing image when pushing the button?
Best,
Fulko
