[Perlpanel-devel] Showing a Configuration Dialog

[Thomas]

Hello, I am working on a weather applet, but I am having problems getting a 
configuration dialog shown.  The applet's widget is a Gtk2::Button, and i 
would like to be able to show a configuration dialog when the user 
right-clicks on the button (or pop up a menu and allow them to configure it 
from there).

I tried connecting to the "popup-menu" event, but i never get that event, and 
i also tried connecting to the button-release-event event, but then i never 
get the "clicked' event.  I also tried replacing the button with a GtkImage 
object (the button only contains an image), but then i never receive 
button-release-events or button-press-events.

What is the preferred way of configuring an applet? is there a way to add the 
applet's configuration dialog to the global configuration dialog?

Thanks for any help
