Hi, I've been trying to work out a gnome panel applet since this friday and have finally ended up in weird issue, this might have come due my lack of understanding of applets/gtk+. So I seek some suggestions/pointers/eye-openers. The source of my applet can be checked out here - http://github.com/ideamonk/tweetbar To run it - $ sudo ./install.sh ' it just copies files into /usr/share/gtweetbar and main script to /usr/local/bin as source uses absolute path $ python ./tweetbar.py run-in-window ' this would run the applet into its own window, where everything is functioning properly - http://twitpic.com/k8lda/full - with respect to the gtk.Entry in center. While when you do a right click on a panel and add the applet to it, the gtk.Entry box becomes un-typable. It never gets focus. I have tried to put all the widgets into an EventBox() but still I didn't find any change. - http://twitpic.com/k8lf8/full I'm able to do a right click on the gtk.Entry(), am able to cut-copy-paste stuff into it, but not able to see a cursor in to so as to type in a tweet. Relevant code - http://paste.pocoo.org/show/142852/ Let me know if you are aware of any applet that has been made in pygtk and has an entry box in it. I tried looking at tracker-search bar's code, but could'nt grasp much, it being written in C. Let me know if there is a way to activate the gtk.Entry (txtTweet in this code) when I run the code in applet mode.
