I'm writing a very simple GUI program for educational purposes. The window has a Gtk.Entry area, from which I grab the input and use as argument for the function num_check(), which checks whether the number is odd or even (and outputs an error if the input is invalid).
The button works fine, but I want to be able to use the Enter key instead of the mouse. And after pressing Enter, the focus should return to the input box (Gtk.Entry)
Here's the code. I appreciate any help.
import gi
gi.require_version('Gtk', '3.0')
from gi.repository import Gtk, GObject
import odd_even
class EntryWindow(Gtk.Window):
def __init__(self):
Gtk.Window.__init__(self, title="ODD OR EVEN")
self.set_size_request(200, 100)
self.timeout_id = None
vbox = Gtk.Box(orientation=Gtk.Orientation.VERTICAL, spacing=6)
self.add(vbox)
self.entry = Gtk.Entry()
self.entry.get_text()
vbox.pack_start(self.entry, True, True, 0)
button = Gtk.Button.new_with_label("Go")
button.connect("clicked", self.on_click_me_clicked)
vbox.pack_start(button, True, True, 0)
self.label = Gtk.Label()
self.label.get_text()
vbox.pack_start(self.label, True, True, 0)
# after pressing "Go", grab text from entry and run num_check() with it, then set label with the result
def on_click_me_clicked(self, button):
number = self.entry.get_text()
func = odd_even.num_check(number)
print(func)
self.label.set_text(func)
win = EntryWindow()
win.connect("delete-event", Gtk.main_quit)
win.show_all()
Gtk.main()
Try this code:
import gi
gi.require_version('Gtk', '3.0')
from gi.repository import Gtk, GObject
import odd_even
class EntryWindow(Gtk.Window):
def __init__(self):
Gtk.Window.__init__(self, title="ODD OR EVEN")
self.set_size_request(200, 100)
self.timeout_id = None
vbox = Gtk.Box(orientation=Gtk.Orientation.VERTICAL, spacing=6)
self.add(vbox)
self.entry = Gtk.Entry()
self.entry.get_text()
self.entry.connect("activate", self.on_entry_activate)
vbox.pack_start(self.entry, True, True, 0)
button = Gtk.Button.new_with_label("Go")
button.connect("clicked", self.on_click_me_clicked)
vbox.pack_start(button, True, True, 0)
self.label = Gtk.Label()
self.label.get_text()
vbox.pack_start(self.label, True, True, 0)
def on_entry_activate (self, entry):
number = entry.get_text()
func = odd_even.num_check(number)
print(func)
self.label.set_text(func)
# after pressing "Go", grab text from entry and run num_check() with it, then set label with the result
def on_click_me_clicked(self, button):
number = self.entry.get_text()
func = odd_even.num_check(number)
print(func)
self.label.set_text(func)
win = EntryWindow()
win.connect("delete-event", Gtk.main_quit)
win.show_all()
Gtk.main()
Edit: the docs for the signals are here.
