This has nothing to do with vertical pointer movement vs. horizontal pointer movement. As soon as you hover the button inside the event box you'll get a leave notify event. That's normal and it only happens with widgets that have a GdkWindow (such as GtkButton). I recently had to solve the same problem (having an icon, a label and a button in an event box). First of all, what it sounds like you're trying to do is control the prelight state of the event boxes and render their content differently when they are prelit. What you can do to achieve this is override the enter_notify and leave_notify handlers. In enter_notify, set the state to prelight. In leave_notify, check whether the pointer has moved to the button or whether it has left the event box entirely. You can do that with a combination of gtk_widget_get_pointer() and gdk_window_get_geometry(). Here's how I did it in Thunar: http://git.xfce.org/xfce/thunar/tree/thunar/thunar-shortcut-row.c?h=jannis/new-shortcuts-pane#n688 Hope this helps, Jannis _______________________________________________ gtk-app-devel-list mailing list gtk-app-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-app-devel-list
