Re: [gcmd-dev] In-place rename

[vlad]

Hmm.. I suppose that nautilus uses an editable cell within a
GtkTreeView, so it is part of the same GtkWindow == no window focus is
changed because "focus under mouse pointer".

Since GtkCList doesn't have such thing as 'editable cell', I am using
a brand new GtkWindow, with a text box in it.
And this window was not though to be "modal", so one can click outside
it to cancel the renaming. == this is the reason it doesnt' work with
"focus under mouse pointer":(

I will switch my window manager to use the same setting an will seek a
way around this
