Dynamic Content in Gtk::ComboBox list

Hello all,

I’d like to have the contents of my Gtk::ComboBox list updated
whenever the popup list is shown. I’m using the simple text-only
way of working with the combo box.

I’ve tried to listen to every signal I think might do it, but none
seem to be sent when the popup is about to be popped-up.

What signal should I be listening to? Or is there a better
way to do this?

I’m using Gtk 2.8.18 and ruby-gtk2-0.14-1 on windows.

Thank you,
Martin

It would be easyer for you if you use the glde interface designer
http://gladewin32.sourceforge.net/modules/wfdownloads/visit.php?cid=2&lid=105
but to answer your question i think you can use the GtkWidget
button-press-event

But as i was saying you can use glade to design your gui and apply any
signals you need
then just use this command here
http://ruby-gnome2.sourceforge.jp/hiki.cgi?ruby-glade-create-template to
generate a skeleton
templet and then you can add any ruby code you want to that.

have you tried Gtk::EventBox ?
you might get more signals there.

Thanks. Wrapping ComboBox in an EventBox and using enter-notify-event
to populate the list gets the job done.
