Win32 focus problem when creating a new window by clicking in a TreeView
Last modified: 2004-12-22 21:47:04 UTC
1. Run a gtk app on win32 that can open windows by double-clicking the mouse on Treeview items. I used the pygtk-demo that comes with pygtk, but I've received independent confirmation that apps written in C have the problem too. 2. Open a window by double-clicking it with the mouse. This bug will only be triggered by using the mouse. Keyboard activation works correctly. 3. When the window opens, try to focus on a text box in the window. A cursor will not appear in the window like it should. 4. Try typing some text. It will appear in the text box as expected, but the cursor is still missing. 5. Try selecting some of the text using the mouse. The text highlights, but uses the highlight style that is used for unfocused widgets. Still no cursor. 6. Minimize the window, then show it again. The cursor will magically appear in the text box.
Isn't this caused by bug #137551?
This does sound like the same bug. At least, their description of the problem sounds like a good explanation for what I observed. I think it would be safe to mark this bug a duplicate, but I'll defer to someone with more experience on these matters than I.
I am certain it is the same problem so I am marking this bug as a duplicate. Thanks for the report anyway. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 137551 ***
