Re: Gtk+3 general functions

[Ian Martin <martin_id vodafone co nz>]

Hi,
If you connect to the Gtk::Widget signal_event and have enabled a 
button_press_mask you should get what you want.  See (from the ref docs:

Glib::SignalProxy1< bool,GdkEventButton* > 
Gtk::Widget::signal_button_press_event     (
    )

The signal_button_press_event() signal will be emitted when a button 
(typically from a mouse) is pressed.

To receive this signal, the Gdk::Window associated to the widget needs 
to enable the Gdk::BUTTON_PRESS_MASK mask.


Assuming, of course, that you're looking for a mouse button press 
(although I don't know of anything else that will occur on a stage 
location that your program won't already know the coordinates of).
Ian.
