[Glade-users] 2-digit fractional part limit on Adjustment's upper/lower bounds

[gmaggior at yahoo.com (Giovanni Maggiorani)]

Hello,
good work on checking so soon the Glade source and the line where the '2' digits is hardcoded.

Sorry, I didn't understand your reply. 
I don't know the Glade code, but (lacking a better solution) I think what I wrote could be feasible. 

I explain myself better. I assume that in Glade there are two 'objects'/data structures  GtkSpinButton and 
associated GtkAdjustment instantiated for each SpinButton a user creates.  Every time the user modifies the 
'Digits' field in the SpinButton, there should be some code/callback in Glade that modifies the allowed 
number of fractional digits into the associated Adjustment upper/lower/etc attributes.  So that if digits 
changes from '2' to '6' in that SpinButton, the upper/lower fields would automatically change from  0.00 to 
0.000000. 

This, unless you meant there is only one Adjustment kind of 'template' in Glade and once established it as 
having 2 digits precision it is used by all the other widgets in the Glade editor.

Thanks for help,
