Hey, I'm writing a plugin that uses a GtkSocket to embed gvim (a graphical version of vim). I am making some remote calls to it (via dbus) that change the current cursor position in gvim, however this change is not reflected in gvim until I scroll using the mouse wheel. If I click somewhere with the mouse, the cursor goes to that location, so that itself isn't a viable solution.
I have tested using vim's remote calling function that uses X11's ICCCM (by setting/getting window properties), and it refreshes instantly. I had a look at vim's code, and it doesn't do anything special X11 wise, other than get/set the X11 window properties. Is there a way I can get the GtkSocket to redraw without resorting to using the X11 properties? (I require the dbus method for some other things, so I can't redo it all with GDK/X11). Also, can I get the GtkSockets' window focus events in my program? Cheers, Arun Tejasvi Chaganty (vimzard) GNOME GSoC Student Blog: http://arunchaganty.wordpress.com
