My head goes dizzy.. I must be asleep or what? But the issue *is still
valid!
*Help!
Hello!
I'm implementing a custom popup window for a gtk.Entry. Actually it's
a custom completion popup. but does not really matter. The real
question is:
*for a given gtk.Entry (parented, realized) get location of the
left-bottom corner of the entry in screen coordinates* (in order to
position the popup window).
Part of the problem I solved myself:
window = entry.get_parent_window()
origin = window.get_origin()
origin returns left-top corner of window's client area in screen
coordinates. It's OK.
But I'm not able to get *actual* entry position and size in window
coordinates. entry.get_allocation() returns allocation which not
always corresponds to *actual* on-screen size and position, but
rather reflects he space devoted to the widget. For example putting
gtk.Entry into gtk.VBox gives the above results.
Help is much appreciated! Thanks!
