Thanks Jehan for helping me out. To be honest, I'm not a developer, merely in newbe using gimp for a very short time. I didn't know about the GTK+ project. It looks very exciting, might not be a programmer I don't know how to use it.
With the Microsoft on-screen keyboard what appears not to be working on the simple modifier keys. For example I 't use control X. I have to use cut from the edit menu. The Microsoft on-screen keyboard so works with any text field, for example I can enter a file name, but when a save it I can't use CONTROL C to save it. I can't use shift all the ALT key to modify a selection. I see you that there are a number of books referenced in the GTK + project documentation. Do you know if there are reputable by a non-programmer mind? As you can imagine, to have to keep returning to the gimp menu for even simple tasks is rather exhausting, especially because I work the mouse with my nose. Many thanks for listening.

Also what doesn't work exactly? The on-screen keyboard does not pop up when your cursor enter a text field? It pops up but it won't write into the field?
