I suppose you have read thread http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtk-list/2007-September/msg00015.html > I am getting mouse events nicely from the drawing area, but have been > entirely stumped in getting keyboard events.

Code written in the last 5 years should read g_signal_connect(da, "focus-event", G_CALLBACK(focus_handler), NULL); Nevertheless, the functionality is the same. > gtk_widget_add_events ( GTK_WIDGET(da), GDK_FOCUS_CHANGE ); And this is the bug. GDK_FOCUS_CHANGE is not an event mask (i.e. GdkEventMask value), it's an event type (i.e. GdkEventType valye). It should be GDK_FOCUS_CHANGE_MASK. Ditto in the key press case. Also ensure you add events before the widget is realized.
