Thanks for advice Richard Boaz
But only I have a problem with your solution, the user
must have the mouse all time inside of the drawing
area if he want interact with the drawing area, and if
he want interact with the menu he need to move the
mouse or use the keyboard for interact with the menu.
But I need that the user can interact with the drawing
area only with selected the drawing area
Without the mouse are inside of drawing area, Bucause
at same time that he may interact with the window that
contains the drawing area.
And if I use the function for block the signal have
the problem of that I can't select, copy, paste the
text.
