Timo,
I wish to freeze the UI, while an operation is in progress.
Maybe you need a modal dialog with a progressbar? That way the user sees
progress happening and the main window isn't active.
Anyways, I am facing another problem. Now, while the root window is
frozen, and if I try to unfreeze a child widget - by
"set_sensitive(True) - it does not work.
Is it expected? If yes, is there a workaround?
This could be solved with a (or more) calls like this:
while gtk.events_pending():
gtk.main_iteration()
Cheers,
Timo
Thanks and Regards,
Ajay

Thanks Timo.
It worked !!!
Just one last query ::
When I desensitize the root window, the entire window goes "grayed".
Is there a way, so that we can prevent the graying out? Ideally, I would
like no colour change.
Maybe it's possible with theming, but I'm not familiar with that.
I wonder why you want to do that though. From a user's view, it's very
confusing when the window is unresponsive without visual indication. It
instantly reminds me of an application that hangs.

Timo
Thanks and Regards,

Hi all.
I have four simple questions :) ::
a)
How to block the complete UI (in the sense that no
user-interaction with the UI is effective), although the UI
changes take place as usual via the changes emanating from the
code?
b)
How to block only a widget, while the rest of the UI remains
unblocked?
c)
How to unblock only a widget, while the rest of the UI remains
blocked?
d)
How to unblock the complete UI?
Do you mean gtk.Widget.set_sensitive(True|False) ? You can use it
on your toplevel window to disable the whole application or on
individual widgets.
Cheers,
Timo
Will be grateful for a reply.
Thanks and Regards,
Ajay
