| I'm using gdk_draw_layout to draw certain text on 
some widgets in my application, It works for most widgets, however, the text 
doesn't render atall for a few widgets. For the above cases where gdk_draw_layout fails to 
render, XDrawString works well. The problem is since XDrawString doesn't know 
anything about sophisticated fonts and internationalized text, I really can't 
use it. Any idea why gdk_draw_layout wouldn't seem to 
render for certain widgets. Here's a snippet of code I'm using: PangoLayout *layout = 
gtk_widget_create_pango_layout(widget) pango_layout_set_text(layout, text); gdk_draw_layout(window, 
widget->style->fg_gc[state], x, y, layout); -vc |
