Hi.
I've been trying to find a way to get gtk+ 1.0.6 to show a non-alpha
accelerator in a menuitem.
I'm using the Del key as a shortcut to nuke items from a top-level
clist, so I'd like the corresponding menuitem to say:
Delete item Del
In the same way that I have
New item Ctrl+N
I originally thought I may be able to realloc menuitem->accelerator_key,
but accelerator_key is just a gchar, not a gchar* as I'd originally
hoped.
I also tried gtk_menu_item_new_with_label("Delete item Del"),
but found that the resulting menuitems aligned like so:
New item Ctrl+N
Delete item Del
Edit item Ctrl+E
The "Del" is not right justified as the "real" accelerators are.
Does anyone know how I can directly manipulate the accelerator text of a
menuitem under gtk+ 1.0.6?
Thanks,
-Manni
