Hi to all,

I have  a following  question, I try to receive a cursor position in
GtkEntry by function gtk_editable_get_position (GTK_EDITABLE (entry)),
but the  function returns a correct position only at expose-event, in
all other cases it returns a zero,  how to solve this problem?

You can try to access directly the property "cursor-position":

gint position = -1;
g_object_get(G_OBJECT(entry), "cursor-position", &position, NULL);
