Hmmm. What's wrong with the get_data() approach I outlined? It frees you from using strings and shared data structures, at least.

I tend to find using that a lot more straightforward than using get_history() to get the index and then depend on a shared data structure (which may or may not be available where you need it).

It's just that you have to get the selected menu item first, only then get_data. It forces you to understand the internal structure of the option menu to get to the selected menu item. get_history is more straightforward, and you don't have to know anything about menus or menu items.

[pygtk] Alignment & scale
Hello folks,
I've noticed that the default values for xscale and yscale in
gtk.Alignment have recently been changed from 0.0 to 1.0:
>>> import gtk
>>> align = gtk.Alignment()
>>> align.get_property("xscale")
1.0
>>> align.get_property("yscale")
1.0
Documentation is still pointing out that both parameters
default to 0.0.

[pygtk] how to map modifier keys to bits in modifier masks?
In the docs for gtk.gdk.Event the description of MOD1_MASK reads: gtk.gdk.MOD1_MASK The fourth modifier key (it depends on the modifier mapping of the X server which key is interpreted as this modifier, but normally it is the Alt key). How do I determine the mapping at run-time (without human intervention)? I wrote a trivial PyGTK script that picks apart and prints the modifier mask for various events, but I can't have each user run that and build a little database for me. On my particular setup (Solaris Intel running Xi Graphics X server v. 11) NumLock is actually MOD2 while Left Alt is MOD4 and Right Alt appears to be unassigned. Other people here at work run various other combinations of OS and X server software, so there is likely to be some variation.

It really depends on what you want to do -- if you *really* want the labels, then it's not the right way to go, but rarely have I needed to get the labels (and I've played with OptionMenu a *lot*).

[pygtk] FontSelection set_font_name() returns false on valid name
When passing the font name returned by gtk.FontSelection's
get_font_name to set_font_name, that method always returns False and
the font is not set in the selection. The font name is valid, and the
font specified is available on the system (having selected it, it is
used in displaying text).
This is using Debian unstable's packages (python-gtk2 2.4.0-2). The
problem also occured with the earlier 2.2 package. It appears that
someone else had this same problem in July of last year
(http://www.daa.com.au/pipermail/pygtk/2003-July/005546.html) but met
with no public response.
Here's a minimal demonstration:
Python 2.3.4 (#2, Sep 24 2004, 08:39:09)
[GCC 3.3.4 (Debian 1:3.3.4-12)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import gtk
>>> f = gtk.FontSelection()
>>> f.get_font_name()
'Sans 10'
>>> f.set_font_name('Sans 12')
False
>>> f.get_font_name()
'Sans 10'
