Package: gtk

Function gtk-widget-event

Lambda List

gtk-widget-event (widget event)

Arguments

widget -- a gtk-widget object
event -- a gdk-event event

Return Value

Return from the event signal emission, true if the event was handled.

Details

Rarely used function. This function is used to emit the event signals on a widget, those signals should never be emitted without using this function to do so. If you want to synthesize an event though, do not use this function. Instead, use the gtk-main-do-event function so the event will behave as if it were in the event queue. Do not synthesize expose events. Instead, use the gdk-window-invalidate-rect function to invalidate a region of the window.
