Issue with GtkUIManager on OS2008?
In my program I use GtkUIManager to create and manage keyboard accelerators for the hardware keys. This works fine on OS 2007 but I have a sneaking suspicion it does not work in OS2008. Can someone with an N810 test my program and let me know if the accelerators are working? (testing the fullscreen button should be sufficient). http://maemo.org/downloads/product/OS2008/quiver/ If it turns out that it is not working, would anyone know the cause? A bug in gtk+ for 2008 perhaps?

The reason is that keyboard shortcuts are disabled when there's no keyboard available; there's no point in wasting space by displaying the shortcuts when you don't have a keyboard to actually use them. See http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=72375 We pretty much overlooked the keys on the outside, sorry :-( You can always use the key-press-event signal on toplevel window for handling the special hardware keys. (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.) -- Tommi Komulainen[EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers

See http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=72375 We pretty much overlooked the keys on the outside, sorry :-( 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).
