Notes:
1) I create some text for log window to launch at button click.
2) I create a SVG icon to be used by one button.
3) I make a second window (called log_window ) to be closed at same time as main window.
EDIT: To close both windows at the same time an extra button is needed
Code: Select all
<button cancel> </button>4) To control the width of window and also some vertical empty space I used ...
Code: Select all
<hbox width-request="300">
<text height-request="10"><label>""</label></text>
</hbox> Here is script - It must be executable. Run it in terminal.
Code: Select all
#! /bin/bash
echo "This is text" > /tmp/example_text
echo ' <svg version="1.1" width="150" height="150" id="svg1">
