Getting keyboard focus to an offscreen widget

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

 



Hello everyone,

I have an application with a widget that acts as a front end for a
widget that is held by a GtkOffscreenWindow. The
"pick-embedded-child", "to-embedder" and "from-embedder" signals are
handled and mouse input is successfully redirected to the offscreen
widget. The problem is that I can't get keyboard focus to the
offscreen widget.

I have attached an example application that shows how things are wired.

I take it I need to do something special in response to the
"focus-in-event" signal but I've so far been unsuccessful in getting
focus to the offscreen widget.

Regards,
Daniel Andersson
