Hi, Events (they end with "event" ) callback usually return a boolean value. If the return value is TRUE, then other handlers are not invoked anymore. In your case, make sure that your callback function return FALSE. More generally, always check the declaration of callback functions for the events you register. E.g.: http://www.gtk.org/api/2.6/gtk/GtkWidget.html#GtkWidget-key-press-event Cheers, -- Melvin Hadasht _______________________________________________ gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
