Any chance this will be fixed? It seems like it would be better to hide the accelerator labels while keeping the accelerators active. Is that possible? > You can always use the "key-press-event" signal on toplevel window for > handling the special hardware keys. This seems like a hack that I would like to avoid. GtkUIManager is much better because I can use it to merge the menus, toolbars, and accelerators in and out depending on the state of the application. > (You can toggle the keyboard shortcuts with /apps/osso/gtk/enable-accels > and /apps/osso/gtk/enable-mnemonics GConf keys though be aware that > input methods will overwrite the values when the availability of > hardware keyboard changes.) Yikes... I'd really rather not have to resort to this either. Would setting the "gtk-enable-accels" property to TRUE reenable the accelerators? If so, could I also then monitor this property through the "property-notify-event" signal and set it back to TRUE if it gets set to FALSE? This seems like it would be the best solution for me (besides a proper fix to the bug) as it would require the least amount of changes and would still be compatible with the GtkUIManager (as opposed to having to handling key-press-event).
