How do I create a non-focused window?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

I wrote a simple GTK+ application that displays a popup window.

The problem is that whenever the window is displayed, it immediately gets ("steals") the focus. I would like to prevent that from happening: i.e., the window should be created and displayed, but it should not be focused, while focus was instead retained by whatever window had it before the the new window was created.

The only way I know to do that is by calling window.set_accept_focus(False) before window.show(). There's a serious flaw in that method: the resulting window, while being prevented from stealing the focus, also can not receive focus at any later time, even by intentional user action.

Any ideas about solving this?

Thanks,

Tom
