Hi folks I have this bit of (working) code, which is designed to call a popup routine whenever the 'q' key is pressed anywhere in my application:
GtkAccelGroup *accels = gtk_accel_group_new(); guint keyval; GdkModifierType keymods; const gchar *str = "q"; gtk_accelerator_parse(str, &keyval, &keymods); GClosure * closure = g_cclosure_new_swap(G_CALLBACK(popup), NULL, NULL); gtk_accel_group_connect(accels, keyval, keymods, GTK_ACCEL_VISIBLE, closure); gtk_window_add_accel_group(GTK_WINDOW(toplevel), accels); This successfully triggers the popup routine whenever I press the key q (i.e. on the downstroke). Now I change one line: const gchar *str = "<Release>q"; According to the documentation, this should trigger the popup routine when I _release_ the q key (i.e. on the upstroke). However, it doesn't work. gtk_accelerator_parse is working (gives the expected mask, which is GDK_RELEASE_MASK) but nothing happens when I press the q key (either on the downstroke or the upstroke). Am I doing something wrong or is this an example of a GTK or documentation bug? I have tried searching on google and in this mailing list, without success. -- Tony (echo 'spend!,pocket awide' | sed 'y/acdeikospntw!, /l...@omcgtjuba.phi/') _______________________________________________ gtk-app-devel-list mailing list gtk-app-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-app-devel-list
