Hi all! ... this is my first post in this list and i hope that can help
me :-P (and can understant my english :-D)

i'm writing an example of Cairo to draw in a GtkWidget, but instead of
write directly over the GdkWindows, first i want to draw over surfaces
and then "paste" thats surfaces over the GdkWindow. I need this (if i
can do it work) for develop a custom widget for an app.

In C code what i'm doing is :
w = h =100
== On start up ==
  cr = cairo_create ();
  cairo_set_target_surface (cr, surface);
  cairo_save (cr);
    cairo_set_rgb_color (cr, 255, 0, 0);
    cairo_rectangle (cr, 0, 0, w, h);
    cairo_fill (cr);
    cairo_stroke (cr);

    cairo_set_rgb_color (cr, 0, 0, 0);
    cairo_rectangle (cr, 0, 0, w, h);
    cairo_stroke (cr);
  cairo_restore (cr);
  cairo_destroy(cr);
(this draw a red box with black border)

Then, in the expose event of the GtkWidget :
  cr = cairo_create ();
  cairo_gdk (cr, window);
  cairo_save (cr);
  cairo_move_to (cr, 10, 10);
    cairo_show_surface (cr, surface, w, h);
    cairo_stroke (cr);
  cairo_restore (cr);
  cairo_destroy(cr);

But, what i can see is not what i want (see attachment). If i change the
second rectangle to :
  cairo_rectangle (cr, 10, 10, w-10, h-10);
this work , but has no sence !. I's like the second call is relative tu
the window instead of que surface.

thanks!
