Re: emulating a button click by software

[Ricardo Cruz <rpmcruz clix pt>]

 Try sending an "activate" signal and see if that works. Otherwise, you may 
have to do a hack like:

button->depressed = TRUE;
gtk_widget_queue_draw (button);
install a gtimeout for 250 ms or so

and in timeout:
button->depressed = FALSE;
gtk_widget_queue_draw (button);

Cheers,
 Ricardo
