So I'm new to pygtk, and beggining to experiment with
libglade/gtk/gnome/python. I'm writing a simple app to help me learn how
the various widgets work, but I'm certain I'm missing something.
All I want to do is have the text field of an entry get updated from
within the program when the user clicks on a button (and then the system
spawns an xterm for no reason):
def on_enter_button_clicked(obj):
# Clicking this button simply launches an xterm
entry = GladeXML("testApp.glade", "entry1").get_widget("entry1")
entry.set_text("xterm launched")
entry.set_visibility(invisible)
print '%s' % entry.get_text()
os.system('xterm &')
The console will print out the "xterm launched" correctly, but the
actual widget on the screen doesn't get redrawn. Is there something I
have to tell it about explicitely?
