Children and precedence.
Is it possible to make a child window stay top level? I want the main window to be deactivated while certain child dialogs are open. I achieved this by using gtk_widget_set_sensitive(). Unfortunatly, If the user mistakenly clicks the screen out side of the dialog window, the parent window comes foreward covering the dialog. All input with this application will come from a touchscreen device... plus, I would not expect the user base to think of alt-tab .. also the program will run full screen without a window manager.. thus there will be no task bar unless I design one.

keeping track of time.
Hi. Im new to gtk and the list. I am writing billiards management program under gtk2 on Linux. Each billiards table is represented by a widget that will toggle the table open or closed. While a table is open, I want to insert a label that displays how much time has elapsed. I want the application to be aware of clock ticks with are resolution of 1 second. How could I implement this functionality efficiently. Would it be best to create an interval timer (itimer) every second? Or is there a gtk handler for time that would be better suited to this task. gtk_main () is essentially a message queue. Searches have yielded few results that make sense to me. And a few people have told me that gtk timers are less accurate. Any help would be appreciated. thanks. ___ gtk-app-devel-list mailing list gtk-app-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-app-devel-list
