[Glade-users] password entry field

[Arthur Shats]

Anybody? I still haven't got an answer to this.
There is a field property in Glade-2 'Invisible Char'. How do I make use of it for my password entry field. In my _insert_text handler I do call gtk_entry_set_visibility(myField, FALSE) that picks the invisible char that it thinks would look best. I understand I can set the invisible char by calling gtk_entry_set_invisible_char(), but what is the point of having 'Invisible Char' property in Glade then? How can I use it?
 
Thanks,
Arthur.

That works. I call gtk_entry_set_visibility(myField, FALSE) and it prints dots when I type the password. However, I am using Glade-2 and I just noticed that there is 'Invisible Char' property. Is there a way I can use this property? If yes, how do I do it? 
 
Thanks,
Arthur.
