[Gtk-sharp-list] KeyPressEvent not responding to space/enter/up/down/left/right

[Mike Voytovich]

Hi,

I'm trying to receive keypress events in a window, and am registering
a KeyPressEventHandler.

The KeyPressEventHandler receives an event for all of the keys, except
for the ones I'm interested in, which are
space/enter/up/down/left/right.  It correctly receives an event for
control keys, space, caps, function keys, etc.

Example code is shown below to illustrate the problem I'm seeing.

I'm a newbie to gtk and gtk-sharp, my apologizes in advance if this is
a trivial question.

regards,
-mike

public class example {

	static void keypress_event(object obj, KeyPressEventArgs args)
	{
			System.Console.WriteLine("Keypress: {0}", args.Event.Key);
	}

	public static void Main() {		

		Application.Init();

		Window myWin = new Window("GTK# test app");

		myWin.KeyPressEvent += new KeyPressEventHandler(keypress_event);
		
		myWin.ShowAll();
		
		Application.Run();
	}
