Hi,

I am trying to write an application in clutter, which has to redirect a
few button presses/key strokes to another GTK application just behind
the Clutter window in stacking order. 

Libfakekey used by the matchbox-virtual-keyboard seemed a logical choice
for passing on modified key-strokes. 
It uses XTestFakeKeyEvent to send key events to a display. 
I have tested whether the library works on my system using fakekey-test
and the matchbox-virtual-keyboard. Both are working.
I am using matchbox on X as window manager.

Problem: My clutter application doesn't redirect keys. :)

Matchbox virtual keyboard seems to be able to position itself as a
window of type TOOLBAR, with override redirect.  
My application sets the same X window properties: (for which I have
mainly referred the matchbox-virtual-keyboard code). 
However, I couldn't set XSetWindowAttributes related to the
XWindowCreate as its not exposed for Clutter Window. 

I tried to use "XChangeWindowAttributes" later on the X window too, but
on a button press, application crashes.


My questions: 

1) Any way to specify, parameters to XWindowCreate for the Clutter stage
Xwindow. 

2) Any other way to make my Clutter application behave like the
matchbox-keyboard ?
