Re: Gtk+ Modality Problem

["Atanas Atanasov" <thenasko gmail com>]

The way ti works under windows: The window manager can distinguish
between what is called the client (the inside) and non-client
(titlebar & borders) areas a window. Subsequently all mouse events are
separated in two classes - normal and NC (non-client). Then the
default handlers (through DefWindowProc) for NC events will perform
the resizing and these tasks posting specific events that can be
handled by the application e.g. WM_SIZE, WM_MOVE. Of course one can
add a custom handler for any NC message thus overshadowing the default
behaviour. The is also a mechanism that can perform message filtering.
Does there exist such a mechanism in Gtk and how can I set it to
filter all mouse/keyboard events so that no subsequent resizes etc
will propagate?
