We used an adaptation of the gnome-screenshot code in gnome-utils's gnome-screenshot/gnome-screenshot.c It is *very * voodoo (in the sense that it makes all kinds of low level X calls which aren't the sort of thing that us mere mortal application developers using GTK have to know about, usually) but works quite nicely, especially the fact that it captures window decorations and adds a nice drop shadow. Pity it isn't out there in library form, but c'est la vie. do you have it in a form, where you have one *.c and one *.h file with lots of static functions and one public function in the kind of: take_screen_shot(GtkWindow *window,gchar *filename); If so, could you share that code?

gtk-feed
Hello all, I have been developing a small GTK application for some time now and I have reached version 0.2.0 with it. Basically, it's simple RSS feed reader which only appears as an icon in the window manager's system tray. As of now, it's unfinished and much developing would need to be done. Unfortunately, I seem to be lacking free time and I just decided to post this in here, in case if anyone would get interested contributing. Otherwise, comments and suggestions would also be welcome :) You can find gtk-feed in here: http://henux.nor.fi/coding/projects/15-gtk/24-gtk-feed -- Henri Häkkinen ___ gtk-app-devel-list mailing list gtk-app-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-app-devel-list

You should add a requires: gtk-2.14.x to your configure script. I am using 2.12 and I ran into an error with gtk_dialog_get_content_area(). 2.12 is still kind of new so you may wish to add a #define around the GtkDialog widget you are using to also have 2.14 compliant code. Users will be able to use your program on a wider variety of distributions. ___ gtk-app-devel-list mailing list gtk-app-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-app-devel-list
Emitting events to a non-visible widget
Is there any way to emit events to a non-visible GtkWidget? By non-visible, I'm thinking of a GtkWidget that never gets shown, i.e. gtk_widget_show_all or similar never gets called on this widget. Just to clarify on the events - I'd like to emit button, emotion and key events. As far as I've tried, I saw that the problem occurs because no useful x_root or y_root can actually be set to event, when specifically talking about a GdkEventButton event. I also fairly doubt about widget's window validity when that widget is not visible, since a window needs to be set in a GdkEvent. Can anyone suggest a solution or an effective bypass? I thank you sincerely. ___ gtk-app-devel-list mailing list gtk-app-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-app-devel-list

I thank you sincerely. Sure, lets start with why do you want to send an event to an invisible widget in the first place ? I'm sure we can figure something more appropriate than creating an invisible button...

I'm sure we can figure something more appropriate than creating an invisible button... In WebKit's[1] test cases, some tests require a button click or a key press to be generated at a specific location. Test cases are however loaded one by one and tested in a WebKitWebView, which is essentially a GtkWidget that never gets shown when running the tests. While this could probably be bypassed with some hacking in the WebKit engine itself, it would be nice to do it through Gtk so a real-environment imitation could be done, if possible.

It's in the Java bindings as a function[1] that returns a Pixbuf, as in: pixbuf = Screenshot.capture(); which a few layers later reaches this: http://research.operationaldynamics.com/bzr/java-gnome/mainline/src/jni/gnome_screenshot_capture.c http://research.operationaldynamics.com/bzr/java-gnome/mainline/src/jni/gnome_screenshot.h which in turn just calls the stuff from what in gnome-utils is gnome-screenshot/screenshot-utils.c and friends. AfC Sydney [1]: yes yes, I realize full well that a class method is still a method in Java speak. Still, I've taken to calling them functions since everyone else tends to use method to exclusively refer to functions that are members of, and operate on, object instances. Whatever.
