pyGTK on Mouse over event ?

[Domenique.Tilleuil]

hello,

Is there an event simular to the java event onMouseOver ?
I want to get the coordinates of the mouse pointer when it is over an
image ( GTKImage widget)

I've tried using the EventBox with the motion_notify but that only
seems to work when the mouse is pressed ?

Why do you use an event box?
Image derives from Widget hence can be connected to the
motion-notify-event just like EventBox. Did you try directly?

I have tried coding a simple application in pyGTK and I remember I had
trouble getting button_press event in a DrawingArea.
I was using glade and despite having declared a handler to this event, I
had to manually call add_events(gtk. gdk.BUTTON_PRES S_MASK) (the connect
was ok but the event mask was not).
Have you checked this?

def __init__(self):
xml = gtk.glade.XML("/home/domenique/project1.glade" )
self.window = xml.get_widget( "window1")
self.img = xml.get_widget( "image1")
self.img.set_fr om_file("./test.svg")
self.img.show()
self.img.add_ev ents(gtk.gdk.BU TTON_MOTION_MAS K)
xml.signal_auto connect({
'on_window1_del ete_event': self.on_window1 _delete_event,
'on_window1_des troy_event': self.on_window1 _destroy_event,
'on_image1_moti on_notify_event ': self.on_image1_ motion_notify_e vent,
'on_image1_butt on_press_event' : self.img_key_pr ess,
})

This is the code so far. i've added the MOTION MASK to the image
widget, is that what u ment ?

Yes.
But I guess by your question it doesn't work better than before. Sorry I
didn't help much. :/

Actually I read too fast. I meant BUTTON_PRESS_MA SK (not motion) for the
button_press_ev ent.
For motion_notify_e vent, I guess it would be POINTER_MOTION_ MASK (not
button).
