HI
you have to use gdk_widget_grab(your window)
and gdk_pointer_grab (..);
this will grab all kind of mouse event to your window .
to make gtk stop the execution of the current code and wait until you
destroy your modal window, you have to start a new event loop
with : gtk_main ();
and don't forget to destroy it, in order to return to the parent process with :
gtk_main_quit();
take a look to the event loop functions in the glib , once you
understand it it's easy to use it .
bye
