I recently ported a GTK2 application to GTK3 (http://www.ssalewski.de/PetEd.html.en) I had some working Ruby code like this for GTK2: def distribute_events(pda, event) if event.event_type == Gdk::Event::Type::KEY_PRESS px, py = pda.get_user_coordinates(*pda.pointer) else px, py = pda.get_user_coordinates(event.x, event.y) window.get_pointer() is deprecated in GTK3. https://developer.gnome.org/gtk3/stable/GtkWidget.html#gtk-widget-get-pointer We should use https://developer.gnome.org/gdk3/stable/gdk3-Windows.html#gdk-window-get-device-position But for this function we need a reference to the pointing device, which is not available from keyboard event. Or in other words: In GTK3-demo there is an Drawing_Area application where we can draw when we held down the left mouse key: How can we draw a circle at the current mouse position when we press 'C' key?
