2 (simple?) questions
Hello everybody! I have 2 questions. Perhaps someone knows solutions? 1. Is it possible to freeze display (and do something only in memory) and unfreeze after program do what I want? I want to freeze main_window and in this time I wanna show/hide widgets and add elements for lists etc. It takes much more time (and looks not nice) when everytking is visible. 2. How can I change active widget? Tab key only can change coursor position to the next widget. I want to change active widget from source level. (It depends what user of program will do). I know that it is not possible for some widgets (ie.labels, etc). Did someone solve this problems?

I know that it is not possible for some widgets (ie.labels, etc). For both of these questions you sould look in gtk+-2.0/gtk/gtkwidget.h in your include directory. There you should find answers. If you are not familiar with these files you can also take a look in the gtk+-2.0-reference manual at www.gtk.org.

I tried to find, but niether gtk_widget_grab_focus or gtk_widget_activate doesnt work for me :( And for 1st question i have no Idea :_( Could someone help? ___ gtk-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
Re: GtkComboBox: How to be notified of selection
On 02 Aug 2002, Lars Clausen wrote: I'm using a GtkComboBox in Dia for zoom selection. I can't quite get it to behave the way I'd like. It ought to be that when the user selects an item from the drop-down list (making the drop-down disappear), the zoom amount should be updated. However, I haven't found a signal that will tell me that the user made his or her final selection. select-child and selection-changed from the GtkList is called while the mouse is dragged over the items. unmap, hide and unrealize don't get called. I don't want the user to have to press Enter after selecting from the menu, that's all. What should I do? In the end, I dropped the ComboBox and changed to combined Entry and Button with menu-popup. Works just the way the ComboBox should have. -Lars -- Lars Clausen (http://shasta.cs.uiuc.edu/~lrclause)| Hårdgrim of Numenor I do not agree with a word that you say, but I | will defend to the death your right to say it. | Where are we going, and --Evelyn Beatrice Hall paraphrasing Voltaire | what's with the handbasket? ___ gtk-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
Menu Item drawing an accelerator
Hi, I would like to add accelerator text to my menu items, without actually using a real accelerator i.e I would like to have: Cut Ctl-X in the menu, but do not want to define an accelerator. For the moment I am setting the menu Item text to Cut___Ctl-X, where ___ is 3 space characters. This does what I want, but looks rather ugly as the Ctl-X is not right justified. I tried looking through the GTK source to see how it is done, but after a few hours I gave up. I am pretty new to GTK, and would appreciate it ifanyone could give me some advice on how to do this.

Re: Menu Item drawing an accelerator
Hallo Allen! I would like to add accelerator text to my menu items, without actually using a real accelerator i.e I would like to have: Cut Ctl-X in the menu, but do not want to define an accelerator. What about setting up 2 widgets in the item? Maybe that is not a very smart solution, but I would try to get the label of the item button widget to put an hbox upon it instead of the single label), using reparent if this is still in gtk2. In that box I would put 2 labels. One that contains the title and the other one containing the accelerator? I think if the accelerator strings lengths are of the same length if would look the way you want it. That way you could add nice xpms (like these stock items) also.

I could use accelerators but I would like to keep my code base as similar as possible across all platforms. Well, if you already intercept all keystrokes and execute the appropriate functions, then accelerators added the normal way would never get executed anyway, right? And if not, then they execute the same command as the menu items anyway, which presumably is the same as the keystroke would do? I also want to satisfy my curiosity! That's a reasonable reason:) -Lars -- Lars Clausen (http://shasta.cs.uiuc.edu/~lrclause)| Hårdgrim of Numenor I do not agree with a word that you say, but I | will defend to the death your right to say it. | Where are we going, and --Evelyn Beatrice Hall paraphrasing Voltaire | what's with the handbasket? ___ gtk-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
