Re: [Gimp-user] Microsoft on-screen keyboard doesn't work with gimp 2.8

[stephen burton <steveburtonx yahoo co uk>]

Thanks Jehan for helping me out. To be honest, I'm not a developer, merely in newbe using gimp for a very 
short time. I didn't know about the GTK+ project. It looks very exciting, might not be a programmer I don't 
know how to use it.

With the Microsoft on-screen keyboard what appears not to be working on the simple modifier keys. For example 
I 't use control X. I have to use cut from the edit menu. The Microsoft on-screen keyboard so works with any 
text field, for example I can enter a file name, but when a save it I can't use CONTROL C to save it. I can't 
use shift all the ALT key to modify a selection.

I see you that there are a number of books referenced in the GTK + project documentation. Do you know if 
there are reputable by a non-programmer mind?

As you can imagine, to have to keep returning to the gimp menu for even simple tasks is rather exhausting, 
especially because I work the mouse with my nose.

Many thanks for listening.

Steve

Have you tried any other program using the GTK+ toolkit by any chance?
Do you have the same issue there?
Also what doesn't work exactly? The on-screen keyboard does not pop up
when your cursor enter a text field? It pops up but it won't write
into the field?
