RE: Gtkmm efficiency

["Aaron Geier" <ageier catalystmicro com>]

The application uses a touchscreen monitor, so there needs to be an
event that I can "capture" to let me know when the user touches the
entry.  I was unable to get such an event to work with labels, so I used
the gdkcrossing signal for entries.  If there is a signal that I can
subscribe with labels to give me this functionality, I would try to use
labels.

-Thanks,
Aaron

Are the entries editable?  in other words -- do they need to be
entries?  or can they be labels or something like that?.
Alternatively, have you tried to disable any of the events?  just
ideas off the top of my head...
