HI Bernhard,
           It's great to hear that sketch will be ported to GTK2. With
SVG and SVG icons getting more and more popular, vector graphics apps like
yours become ever more important.

Anyway, I just tried your suggestion and it worked! So this appears to be
a bug in GTK2.

focus events shouldn't cause expose events.

I haven't tried GTK2.2 yet, I'll wait till I upgrade to RH 9 in a couple
of weeks.

In any case I think I can clobber together a work-around.

Thanks.

Martin
