keyboardGrab
fn
gdk.types.GrabStatus keyboardGrab(gdk.window.Window window, bool ownerEvents, uint time)Grabs the keyboard so that all events are passed to this application until the keyboard is ungrabbed with [gdk.global.keyboardUngrab]. This overrides any previous keyboard grab by this client.
If you set up anything at the time you take the grab that needs to be cleaned up when the grab ends, you should handle the #GdkEventGrabBroken events that are emitted when the grab ends unvoluntarily.
Parameters
window | the #GdkWindow which will own the grab (the grab window). |
ownerEvents | if false then all keyboard events are reported with respect to window. If true then keyboard events for this application are reported as normal, but keyboard events outside this application are reported with respect to window. Both key press and key release events are always reported, independant of the event mask set by the application. |
time | a timestamp from a #GdkEvent, or [gdk.types.CURRENT_TIME] if no timestamp is available. |
Returns
[gdk.types.GrabStatus.Success] if the grab was successful.
Deprecated
Use [gdk.device.Device.grab] instead.
