Being completely new with Gtk# I have been trying to write a small "getting started" application. It is just a small calculator to learn about the various gui controls and just getting into the C# programming language.
I have run into a difficulty of limiting the input of the entry/result display to only allow for certain characters (currently I only do math with the common "10" digit system + ".") I did take a peek at the Gtk+ FAQ showing an example in C + Gtk about validating input (section 6.15 "How do I validate/limit/filter the input to a GtkEntry? [GTK 2.x]"). Do anyone have any similar piece of code for the Gtk# ? What I in essense is trying is to read off any keypress events in my window and if they are a digit/dot enter them into the calculator display (of type GtkEntry) One of my problems is that just setting the GtkEntry editable to false still doesnt let my keypress event handler get the event for things like <backspace> <del> and so on (I suspect they are "eaten" by the GtkEntry) Any ideas is greatly appreciated to this "newbie" programmer in C#/Gtk# Best regards Jesper K.
