It works under Windows, it fails under Linux. Here is a test code:<br><br><code><br>from Tkinter import *<br><br>root=Tk()<br><br>root['bg']='' # transparent background<br>root.overrideredirect(1) # get rid of border<br>root.geometry("+80+120") # place on screen<br><br>root.focus_set() # take focus<br><br>bt=Button(text="End",command=root.quit)<br>bt.grid(row=0, stick=E) # a button to allow window's closure<br>tx=Text(bg='white',height=3)<br>tx.grid() # a text widget<br>tx.focus() # give focus to text<br><br>root.mainloop()<br></code><br><br>Under Linux, only mouse events are acknowledged, while the keyboard is ignored. How should I proceed?<br><br>Thanks for you advice,<br>Sorin<br></div></div><br></body></html>
