From http://developer.gnome.org/gtk/2.24/GtkComboBoxEntry.html we have >The changed signal will be emitted while typing into a >GtkComboBoxEntry, as well as when selecting an item from the >GtkComboBoxEntry's list.

I found that with google now -- have not seen similar text for GTK3 docs... I will test that tomorrow. I still wonder if GtkSpinButton is a better way to go. But seems difficult too, and ComboBox should be more convenient and faster for the user. _______________________________________________ gtk-list mailing list gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
