[Glade-users] How to block some input in GtkEntry field

[Tadej Borovšak]

Hi.

Validation should be done prior insertion (so you actually prevent
character from being inserted) like Cristobal said. You can do that by
connecting to GtkEditable::insert-text signal. If the input is
invalid, you simply stop emission of this signal using
g_signal_stop_emission_by_name(), which will cause default handler to
be skipped and text ignored.
