Re: Selecting appropriate widgets -- advice please

In the gtk/ruby source dist I found the file drag-move.rb which is a
very useful example of how to do pretty much what I want to do. I
recommend anyone interested in high-ish level drawing, moving & dragging
have a look at this.

Hi,

most programs use the Gnome::Canvas for tasks like this. But the
Gnome::Canvas in ruby-gnome is not documented at all.

An other possibility is to use Gtk::Layout. On this you can place other
widgets and you can also draw grafics on it. I did it this way from C
for a similar program and it worded well.
