Hi, In short what I want is "packing multiple gtk_drawing_area in a window and getting button press event from each drawing area".
The drawing areas are meant for "animated video thumbnail"(shortened and downscaled). When you clicking on a thumbnail, it starts the actual playback on a different window. It needs to get XID for each drawing area so that it can feed the thumbnail video stream from gstreamer pipeline. Also the button press for each drawing area needs to be distinguishable so that the program can start the playback of the correct video. I would use the common callback func for all the drawing area because the number of drawing area is determined and changes at run time. This has been working fine until being compiled with gtk+-2.18.0 but does not work after that. Now I found that it worked with the later gtk if I add GDK_BUTTON_RELEASE_MASK when calling gtk_widget_set_events(). I don't know why... I even don't have the callback for the event. I guess I am simply wrong with my coding. I appreciate if someone can educate me a bit how this should be done correctly. The sample below is still valid. (if you add GDK_BUTTON_RELEASE_MASK, it works) - Here is some additional note. Firstly I thought this is related with gdk_x11_drawable_get_xid() because it happens only after I call the function. However, by conducting "git bisect" against gtk repository and identifying which exact code makes the change of behavior, I learned that my guess was most likely wrong. With a commit (6fef640debbe468586ff866cbef38d7a29c452d1), get_native_event_mask() in gdk/gdkwindow.c is given much less 'default (?)' event mask and GDK_BUTTON_RELEASE_MASK is one of those dropped. Then I found that if I add it at application side, it works as I wish. If someone wonders what the hell this is all about... you can find the explanation on the application and download whole source at http://drag0n.fam.cx/?page_id=237 Regards, Eigo ----- On Thu, 3 Dec 2009 00:21:59 +0200 Eigo Mori <ei...@pop01.odn.ne.jp> wrote: > > Hi, > > I am having trouble to catch button_press_event on gtk_drawing_area > correctly after calling gdk_x11_drawable_get_xid() for the > drawing_areas. > > Please find the sample code below.
