What documentation do I need to read in order to understand to detect keyboard events (in particular, detecting and timing shift keys depressions)? I don't see anything in the basic documentation, so I imagine that keyboard handling must be the responsibility of one of the several other packages that got installed at the same time. (I guess that that means keyboard handling isn't really part of gtkmm and is therefore a bit off-topic here. Sorry. In my experience keyboard handling is part of the same system as the graphical interface, but that doesn't seem to be true in the case of gtkmm.) I've been flailing around in the documentation for some time trying to make progress on this, and have got nowhere. Doc PS To make it even more puzzling to the newcomer, I see that the Widget class has member functions such as on_key_press_event() that take something called a GdkEventKey*, but the GdkEventKey class isn't mentioned in the gtkmm documented list of classes at /usr/share/doc/gtkmm-3.0/reference/html/annotated.htmŀ, and the reference to the class in the description of Widget isn't clickable, so it's basically a dead-end :-( -- Web: http://www.sff.net/people/N7DR
