Re: Combobox Focus Challenge!!!

[anmol dhawan <anmol_dhawan2000 yahoo com>]

Thanks a lot for your reply Keith. 

 

As you said, I should use gtk_combo_box instead of gtk_combo. 

But the problem remains the same with gtk_combo_box, the gtk_widget_grab_focus() is not working on it.

Do you have any idea for this behavior?

 

Thanks,

Anmol

According to the docs, you supposed to use GtkComboBox now, and not 
GtkCombo. I don't know if that would have an effect as you have the 
code now or not, as I haven't used it. For a GtkCombo though, you have 
to set the focus on the entry widget that is contained inside the combo 
struct. So, you want code like this:

gtk_widget_grab_focus(GTK_COMBO(combo)->entry);
