Hi all
Is there some developer out there who knows something about gtk menus who
can answer the following question:
What is the sequence of events that occur when a user clicks on a menu
item?
I'm trying to duplicate these events by using the keyboard, i.e. so that a
user might get the same effect by e.g. pressing <Alt>F, O as by clicking
on the File menu, then on the Open menu item. I don't want to create a
global shortcut for the 'open file' action, which clutters up the keyboard
'action-space' needlessly.
Before anyone suggests it, just emitting the "activate" signal for the
menu item does not do the trick.
Hoping someone can help!
Conrad
