On windows, mouse input follows the keyboard focus, so to allow selecting text from the patch canvas we must not shift focus back to the top level. This change has no negative impact on X, so we don't explicitly test for Win32 on this change. This provides similar selection capability as already available using X-Windows. Signed-off-by: Mark Levedahl <mdl123@xxxxxxxxxxx> --- This version enforces setting focus to the top level window whenever a scrolling command is issued. The first version lacked that and could allow some letters to erroneously appear in the patch window. This was purely cosmetic but annoying to one co-worker on a very slow machine. gitk | 7 +++++-- 1 files changed, 5 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/gitk b/gitk index f74ce51..84f5ee4 100755 --- a/gitk +++ b/gitk @@ -955,8 +955,8 @@ proc bindkey {ev script} { # set the focus back to the toplevel for any click outside # the entry widgets proc click {w} { - global entries - foreach e $entries { + global ctext entries + foreach e [concat $entries $ctext] { if {$w == $e} return } focus . @@ -4565,6 +4565,7 @@ proc sellastline {} { proc selnextline {dir} { global selectedline + focus . if {![info exists selectedline]} return set l [expr {$selectedline + $dir}] unmarkmatches @@ -4645,6 +4646,7 @@ proc godo {elt} { proc goback {} { global history historyindex + focus . if {$historyindex > 1} { incr historyindex -1 @@ -4658,6 +4660,7 @@ proc goback {} { proc goforw {} { global history historyindex + focus . if {$historyindex < [llength $history]} { set cmd [lindex $history $historyindex] -- 1.5.3.rc4.25.gade7b9 - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
