well, it works fine for me. I am using the CVS gnome-libs, but neither
apphelper or mdi have been changed much lately. if the problem still
exists with your setup, could you go into a bit more detail about it.
setting a breakpoint in gnome-mdi code (libgnomeui, gnome-mdi.c,
app_set_view) and observing what happens there would also help a great
deal.

does the child show at all?

there should be no great difference, really, the MDI only knows about
GnomeMDIChild class, which is the base class for both generic children
and the hex-document children.

it does on my here. and I don't see why it wouldn't on any other
machine.
