Hello everyone,
I’m trying to set the focus to an Entry input field. If I put it inside a Box, I can set the focus via the grab_focus method. But if the Entry is inside a Notebook, it is not focused.
Example code:
import gi
gi.require_version("Gtk", "3.0")
from gi.repository import Gtk
class MyWindow(Gtk.Window):
def __init__(self):
Gtk.Window.__init__(self, title="Simple Notebook Example")
self.set_border_width(3)
self.notebook = Gtk.Notebook()
self.add(self.notebook)
self.page1 = Gtk.Box()
self.page1.set_border_width(10)
self.page1.add(Gtk.Label(label="Default Page!"))
self.notebook.append_page(self.page1, Gtk.Label(label="Plain Title"))
self.note = Gtk.Entry()
self.note.set_activates_default(True)
self.note.set_text("")
self.page1.add(self.note)
self.page2 = Gtk.Box()
self.page2.set_border_width(10)
self.page2.add(Gtk.Label(label="A page with an image for a Title."))
self.notebook.append_page(
self.page2, Gtk.Image.new_from_icon_name("help-about", Gtk.IconSize.MENU)
)
self.note.grab_focus() # does not work
win = MyWindow()
win.connect("destroy", Gtk.main_quit)
win.show_all()
Gtk.main()
How can I focus self.note inside the notebook?
Thanks for any help!
