Re: How can I hook into any X input events sent to my app?



Lately I have noticed that gdk_window_add_filter() no longer seems to be passing keypress / release events (event->type=2,3) to the filter function. Has anybody else observed this behaviour ? Is there a solution for this ?

You can do the unintuitive thing of passing NULL as the first argument to gdk_window_add_filter to get all events delivered to your app.

dispatching to its children windows? Otherwise, I have to register the
filter for every window ever opened in my app.
