Hi,
please help me: for a special purpose, i want to ignore some events. For example, in my multiline text editor, the keys Key Up and Key Down must be ignored in some cases.
I tried but failed. Thank you very much for replying.
Hello,
1) If you want to completely ignore some key events you may use key snooper. It's very easy to set/remove it and you will be sure that no one widget will get these events.
2) If you want to ignore key events for special widget only you can set a filter on "key-press-event", like the Jean and Carlo said. But this can be somewhat painful, because of many possible tricks. Like the case when widget has some logic on "key-release-event" or another signal handler that runs before yours...
