Re: Accelerator keys and popup menus? (Solved)

[Stefan Kost <ensonic hora-obscura de>]

Hi,

Dunno if this is a bug/limmitation in gtk+. I now moved the  
GtkAccelGroup to my ui-resource singleton and it works. That means I  
use only *one* accel_group.
I have a toplevel window with views (tabs). Before I was creating a  
separate one for my popup menu and adding/removing to the window  
depending on which tab was visible. Seems that gtk+ is only supporting  
one accel_group.
