When PyGTK is not enough you can always apeal to the GTK+2.0 docs: http://www.gtk.org/api/2.6/gtk/index.html http://www.gtk.org/api/2.6/gdk/index.html But in this case I think everything you need is in: http://www.pygtk.org/pygtk2reference/class-gdkevent.htm There it says: "The attributes available for a gtk.gdk.Event are dependent on the type of the event. The event types are described in the Description section." Look carefully at the gtk.gdk.WINDOW_STATE section.. > Does anyone know how to decipher the event passed to the callback for > these to user actions? You can always use a friendly "dir(event)" function. I did it and discovered that there is a "new_window_state". There is also a "change_mask", but I dont think it will help you. Study and meditate on the code below and I think your questions will be answered. >>>>>>>> import gtk import gtk.gdk as gdk def quit(data=None): gtk.main_quit() def window_event(window, event): state = event.new_window_state if state == 0: window.set_title('Normal') elif state == gdk.WINDOW_STATE_ICONIFIED: window.set_title('Iconified') elif state == gdk.WINDOW_STATE_MAXIMIZED: window.set_title('Maximized') window = gtk.Window(gtk.WINDOW_TOPLEVEL) window.connect('destroy', quit) window.connect('window-state-event', window_event) window.set_title('Normal') window.show() gtk.main() <<<<<<<< You should also study this links: http://www.gtk.org/api/2.6/gdk/gdk-Event-Structures.html#GdkWindowState Hope helped, [Eric Jardim] _______________________________________________ pygtk mailing list [email protected] http://www.daa.com.au/mailman/listinfo/pygtk Read the PyGTK FAQ: http://www.async.com.br/faq/pygtk/
