Hi folks, I'm currently trying to work out how to detect when a PyGTK window receives the focus from the window manager -- I assume that it must receive some kind of X event, but I can't work out which signal it generates. Searching around the subject on the web doesn't seem to pull up anything useful.
I tried the "focus" signal, but that doesn't work the way I'd like it to. For example, the following code only prints the message "Received focus!" once (immediately after startup) even when it _isn't_ the active window. #!/usr/bin/env python import pygtk pygtk.require('2.0') import gtk def event_focus(widget, direction): print "Received focus!" window = gtk.Window() window.set_size_request(100, 100) window.connect("focus", event_focus) window.show_all() gtk.main() I suspect that I'm hacking in the wrong place, so any hints or tips much appreciated!
