[Glade-users] Hide on delete

[tadeboro at gmail.com (Tadej Borovšak)]

Hello.

I'm not sure what is the problem here. Connecting delete-event to some
function that returns TRUE in order to keep window alive should really
not be too difficult.

My Python skills suck, but I did manage to create a working
application in couple of minutes. I attached it below, along with it's
glade file. Hopefully, this app will get you up and running properly.

--- CODE ---
delete-event.py:

#!/usr/bin/env python
# vim: set fileencoding=utf-8

import pygtk
pygtk.require( "2.0" )
import gtk

class SampleApp():
        def __init__( self ):
                builder = gtk.Builder()
                builder.add_from_file( "delete-event.glade" )
                builder.connect_signals( self )

                window = builder.get_object( "window1" )
                window.show()

        def gtk_widget_hide_on_delete( self, widget, event ):
                return widget.hide_on_delete()

        def gtk_main_quit( self, widget ):
                gtk.main_quit()

        def gtk_window_present( self, window ):
                window.present()

def main():
        SampleApp()
        gtk.main()

if __name__ == '__main__':
        main()

delete-event.glade:
