Hi, I have a tree view which contains a list of media items to be played, and some information about them. I would like to be able to let the user re-order this list, but if i just use "set_reorderable(True)" than they can actually drop one item onto another, and make the dropped item the child o

[pygtk] Threading, Linux to Windows.

Re: [pygtk] Check if value-changed signal is emitted by user action

I had the same poblem for a long time. Right now we let the backend change the value normaly, and dont activate a value changed callback. For user interaction, we catch both the "button-press-event" and the "button-release-event" from the hscale. When we catch a button press event, i unblock the "

Re: [pygtk] gtk.Notebook

if using PyGTK 2.4, maybe try moving your connect down further, and sending the index that append_page returns to your handler. something like... ... page = self.mdi_book.append_page(scroller,hbox) btn.connect('clicked', self.on_close_btn, page) ... def on_close_btn(self, widget,da

[pygtk] xlib error

Hello, Every once in a while i get this error: Xlib: unexpected async reply (sequence 0x13cb)! It started happening after i rebuilt our gui using glade instead of just hand coding it. I cant get it to repeat with any regularity, but it happens often enough to be concerning. Ive never debugged an

Re: [pygtk] How to open a window from of other?

from what i understand, the __name__ property of a module is only set to main if the module is being run by itself. For example: __name__ does equal '__main__' in this case... $> python MyModule.py BUT in the following situation... $>python >>>import MyModule.py __name__ DOES NOT equal '__main_

[pygtk] TreeViewColumn background color

Hello, I was wondering if their was a way to set the whole cell background to be a single color. Right now I'm doing it with gtk.TreeViewColumn('Column Title', cell_renderer, text=0, foreground=1) Which works fine... although it sets the background with some white space around it. I would like

[pygtk] Rounded Windows

Hello I was wondering if any one knows of a tutorial/example set of how to use PyGtk in conjunction with Cairo to create rounded/transparent windows. Using Cairo isn't that important, any well documented way of doing this would be fine. I have already been to Cairo's home page, but most/all of t

Re: [pygtk] FileChooserButton - signal when the dialog closes

i catch the "delete_event", and attach it to a custom hander. If you want to be able to open the same FileChooser again, than make sure that you return True from your custom handler, so the signal wont propagate. also, i have added my own "ok" and "cancel" buttons to the bottom of the dialog, and

Re: [pygtk] PyGtk, Standard way to thread?
