I thought the first is good way of solving second, but now I've understood first is not good way. because it's not compatible with the XEMBED spec. In addition, my patch at 111438 does not solve all of the second problem. So the patch is not good at all, I think. > > To solve this problem, once inputing starts, input method should > > steal all inputs from the keyboard until inputing ends, I think.

You are saying at Bug 90082, "Note that any method involve intercepting key events on the toplevel will not work in the context of embedding, as done with Bonobo". I interpreted this as follows, If client side widget connect signal to the toplevel, it will not work properly, because client has no toplevel or client toplevel is not real toplevel. (I don't know which is correct, but I think intercepting key events will not work in either.) My interpretation is right? Is there still any other problem? Intercepting key events on the toplevel will not work properly, so we have to find a new solution to solve this problem, and I propose a new solution. 1. add active (this means while inputing) im context variable to each toplevel window 2. while active im context exists, keystroke is passed to the im context first. Do you think this good or not good? Such change is easy? Regards, TOKUNAGA Hiroyuki _______________________________________________ gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
