Actually, I just figured it out a few moments ago. Adding the following to realize() beings to fix things:
GTK_WIDGET_SET_FLAGS(widget, GTK_CAN_FOCUS); I start to get keyboard events and such. However, there's another problem now! Even with GTK_CAN_FOCUS, I still don't get GDK_MOTION_NOTIFY events, or even mouse button press events. Here's another test case to instated illustrate that problem. This time, "IT WORKS!" only prints if the event is somehow mouse related: http://www.rutski89.com/static/mouse_test.c See if you can get that one to print, I can't -Patrick On Fri, Aug 21, 2009 at 3:34 AM, Brian J.
