Re: focus-out-event and GtkEntry

[Zvi Sebrow <zvi sebrow verizon net>]

My focus out signal handler DID return FALSE; the problem is that it popped 
up a
dialog box---which steals the focus--before the focus-out-event gets to 
return the FALSE, and while
the dialog box is open and alive and waiting for the user to hit OK, I got 
the error....

but i found the solution:  i simply used g_signal_connect_after() for the 
focus-out-event,
and so the default handler was already run when i opened the dialog box, and 
all is well!

thanks
