Does this work on any OS?  I just tried your script under both Windows
XP with Camelbox and on Ubuntu 9.10; the bottom window in Ubuntu isn't
even letting me paste text in.  I changed the $fontdesc->set_size()
call in sub change_font{} to set_absolute_size, and I could then see
really tiny text on my Ubuntu machine.

I can run the Gtk2-Demo main.pl program [1] (which also uses
Gtk2::TextViews) and I have no problems scrolling text and the text
repainting itself.

What you may want to try is instead of setting properties for your
TextViews inside the .ui file, set them directly from main.pl and see
if that changes anything. If all else fails, take a look at the
textview.pl script in the examples folder and see what the difference
is between your script and that one.

Thanks,

Brian
