Hi,

Is it possible to send a hint string (just like the container itself does
when mousing over menu items) to a BonoboUIContainer?
I guess bonobo_ui_component_set_status is supposed to be similar, but I
had troubles getting it to work: either I get a WRONG_PATH exception, or I
have to do something like this beforehand:

bonobo_ui_component_set_translate (uic, "/", 
	"<status><item name=\"main\"/></status>", NULL);

but this totally messes up custom-programmed statusbars on the container
side (i.e. ones that don't use BonoboWindow's internal statusbar but
instead implement add_hint/remove_hint handlers on their own).

Thanks,
	Gergo

You are in a twisty maze of little install diskettes.
