What kind of UI are you implementing here? I am develloping myrtille ( https://launchpad.net/myrtille), a tool for stopmotion who takes video snapshot from DV cam or Web cam.

I have a button "capture" to take a snapshot ( image) of the video. So in my mind the "button capture" could be also linked to the "spacebar", buy it seems not a great idea at all ;-) . The usage could be a simple way to take photos, especially for young kids. Perhaps with playing with button focus I can have this feature implemented with spacebar ? or I change completely the key ( 'c' key for example ? ) _______________________________________________ gtk-list mailing list gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
