I could reproduce the error on a Windows XP machine. I will test it on GNU/Linux (Ubuntu Karmic Koala - GNOME) in the evening. 2010/8/24 Cameron Laird > On Tue, Aug 24, 2010 at 11:57:57AM +0300, Firat Ozgul wrote: >. >. >. >

Actually, I can reproduce the error described by the original poster... I am not exactly sure about the true dynamics of the solution, but after_idle() method seems to solve the problem in a way.

Hi, Its always better if you provide code which can be run. Reduce out all irrelevant code. (often this process shows you the problem in your code). If you have an askyesno dialogue open, that hogs the keyboard, so you cannot type to another window while it is open. Mick >>> >>
