Yes, of course; all functions in Python are objects and can be passed normally as parameters. Something like the following code snippet. def callback(widget,entry) : pass def function(rtn1) : . . . b2 = GtkRadioButton(label=Full list) b2.connect(pressed, rtn1, b2) ... ... function(callback) ...

[pygtk] Window sizing controls
What are the proper controls to use with windows and the various child widgets to allow everything to resize automatically. I'm using a main window and a notebook with (at least) 3 static tabs. Each tabe has a radio buttons box at the top and a clist in a scroolled window widget at the bottom that receives variable data Right now I'm using no sizing on the main window and the scrolled window has set_usize(100,380) and the clist has set_usize(94,8000). The value 8000 has to be larger than the number of items I insert into the clist, or the scrolled window can't reach all of the items. What would be a better way to do this? -- Collins Richey - Denver Area - WWTLRD? gentoo(since 01/01/01) 2.4.18+(ext3) xfce-sylpheed-mozilla ___ pygtk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.daa.com.au/mailman/listinfo/pygtk Read the PyGTK FAQ: http://www.async.com.br/faq/pygtk/
[pygtk] gtk rc files
I'm setting up an application that will be packaged for general use, and I would like to have one or more rc files to control the default settings (styles and default directories, among others). Is it possible to include non-gtk-related items in a gtk rcfile that is processed by rc-parse()? Are there standard methods for parsing the additional values I put in the file? -- Collins Richey - Denver Area - WWTLRD? gentoo(since 01/01/01) 2.4.18+(ext3) xfce-sylpheed-mozilla ___ pygtk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.daa.com.au/mailman/listinfo/pygtk Read the PyGTK FAQ: http://www.async.com.br/faq/pygtk/

You'll need your own configuration files; I would suggest using Python's ConfigParser module, which works fine.

I want to make Any button from the main menu? Wait, this isn't making any sense to me. Do you mean a toolbar? You have a toolbar of buttons that open popup menus? If this is the case, I would recommend using a more traditional layout for your application; it would be highly unfamiliar and cumbersome. The menubar by itself works very well and provides all the functionality you would need. the main menu disabled, so the user will not tend to click any button from the main menu until they quit the pop up menu.

[pygtk] Detecting keystrokes
I'm writing a keyboard grabbing applet to help sufferers of RSI/chronic-pain/carpal-tunnel. The idea is that the applet limits use of the keyboard/mouse to a certain period of time before forcing the user to take a break. I'd like to be able to detect when the user stops typing (if the user stops typing for more than X seconds, I'd like to stop the clock). Is there anyway I can receive an event every time the user hits a key or moves the mouse? (I've tried the solution mentioned in FAQ entry 3.2, but to no avail, it only detects keystrokes when the window has X focus) e ___ pygtk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.daa.com.au/mailman/listinfo/pygtk Read the PyGTK FAQ: http://www.async.com.br/faq/pygtk/
Re: [pygtk] Copy to X clipboard
My problem is slightly different; I'm copying from a pygtk application to a legacy application using the clipboard. With the code in the selection.py sample file, the middle button paste works but a paste from the taskbar (in gnome-terminal, for example) doesn't work. Using xclipboard I got it to work using Edit/Paste, but the middle button paste doesn't work. That is, I haven't managed to get *both* middle button and Edit/Paste to paste. (In the cases where xclipboard is being used, Edit/Paste works but middle button doesn't.) Obviously I'm missing something. Is this related to selection names, such as GDK_SELECTION_PRIMARY (which I just copied under emacs, and pasted under kmail, and both middle button and edit/paste work, so it is possible).

When a user copies some text to the clipboard, the text doesn't necessarily get copied anywhere. Instead, the application claims the CLIPBOARD selection. When another app wants to paste the contents of the clipboard, they request the contents of the CLIPBOARD selection in a particular format (eg. UTF8 text, html, an image, etc), which sends a message to the first app. The first app then sends the data back in the requested format. This has the benefit that no data is sent over the wire until it is requested, and content type negotiation can be performed. As you can see, this model breaks down when the selection owner window gets destroyed. There are some tools to work around this problem such as xclipboard. The downside to xclipboard is that every time the CLIPBOARD selection is claimed, the data gets requested by xclipboard, and xclipboard will only store the data in one format.
