I tried to make a simple script.
Following sample shows a simple window that contains two entries.
Each entry can select entire text by clicking.
---------------------------
import sys
import pygtk
if sys.platform != 'win32':
pygtk.require('2.0')
import gtk
class simpleWindow:
def __init__(self):
self.wind = gtk.Window(gtk.WINDOW_TOPLEVEL)
self.wind.set_border_width(2)
self.wind.set_size_request(400, 300)
self.wind.connect('delete_event', self.__on_quit)
vbox = gtk.VBox()
entry = gtk.Entry()
entry.connect('event', self.__on_entry_clicked)
vbox.pack_start(entry)
entry = gtk.Entry()
entry.connect('event', self.__on_entry_clicked)
vbox.pack_start(entry)
self.wind.add(vbox)
self.wind.show_all()
gtk.main()
def __on_entry_clicked(self, widget, event, data=None):
if event.type == gtk.gdk.BUTTON_RELEASE:
widget.select_region(0, -1)
def __on_quit(self, widget, event=None):
print '-- quit --'
gtk.main_quit()
return False
def main():
wind = simpleWindow()
if __name__ == '__main__':
main()
