Hi,
It still does not seem to work. I tried with VLC and totem in fullscreen mode.
Here is what I did:
[code]
class KbdWindowBase:
"""Very messy class holds the keyboard widget. The mess is the docked
window support which is disable because of numerous metacity bugs."""
def __init__(self):
gtk.Window.__init__(self)
_logger.debug("Entered in __init__")
self.keyboard = None
self.set_accept_focus(False)
self.grab_remove()
self.set_keep_above(True)
self.connect('realize', self._realize_cb)
self.set_icon_name("onboard")
config.geometry_notify_add(self.resize)
self.set_default_size(config.keyboard_width, config.keyboard_height)
config.position_notify_add(self.move)
self.move(config.x_position, config.y_position)
self.connect("window-state-event", self.cb_state_change)
self.icp = IconPalette()
self.icp.connect_object("activated", gtk.Window.deiconify, self)
self.show_all()
if config.start_minimized: self.iconify()
_logger.debug("Leaving __init__")
def _realize_cb(self, widget):
self.window.set_type_hint(gtk.gdk.WINDOW_TYPE_HINT_DOCK)
[/code]
By the way, you can see the source code online at:
https://code.launchpad.net/~onboard/onboard/pointer-users
KbdWindow.py is the file where the window for the onscreen keyboard gets
created.
Cheers
Francesco
