Re: getting GDK_GRAB_NOT_VIEWABLE for keyboard grab

[Artur Galyamov <artur-pub yandex ru>]

Hi!

Maybe your window isn't mapped yet from X (or just Gdk) perspective, so no
grabs are possible. You must wait GDK_MAP event -- try to connect-after
"map-event" of object->window and grab there. Must solve your problem, IMHO.

Most Gtk methods are not synchronous -- fullscreen() and show_all() just
queue operations into Gdk or send X requests and return.
