Hi,

I have a standalone test app that has nothing inside the main window but 
a big, drawable RGB canvas (GtkDrawingArea). I can receive nearly any 
kind of event via the canvas: Expose, mouse motion, button 
press/release, scroll wheel, etc. However, I *cannot* figure out how to 
get key press events. I even added the key up/down events to the 
widget's event list using the GDK_KEY_PRESS_MASK and 
GDK_KEY_RELEASE_MASK flags passed to gtk_widget_add_events().

Is it even supposed to be possible to get key events for the canvas? Is 
a non-text widget forbidden from receiving key events? When I swap the 
canvas out for a more text-oriented widget, I get all the key events I want.

        Thanks...
