8.5. Example
This example is a somewhat modified version of the "range controls" test from testgtk.c. It basically puts up a window with three range widgets all connected to the same adjustment, and a couple of controls for adjusting some of the parameters mentioned above and in the section on adjustments, so you can see how they affect the way these widgets work for the user.

You will notice that the program does not call g_signal_connect() for the "delete_event", but only for the "destroy" signal. This will still perform the desired function, because an unhandled "delete_event" will result in a "destroy" signal being given to the window.
