Drag'n'Droping Windows in pyGTK

[tcb]

How would you make a window drag'n'drop? I have hidden the titlebar using:

self.window.set_decorated(False)

But I still want this window to be moveable, by clicking and dragging anywhere within the window.

I would rather just use pyGTK, but Xlib is fine with me aswell.

thx in advance,

hi,

set_resizable(resizable)?

This isn't working, and even if it was it would have only been resizable.

You see, i want there to be no decoration from the WM, so i've hidden its decoration. But it has also got to be moveable. Its not that I don't want to resize, I want it to be movable by Drag'n'Drop anywhere in the window

sorry,
I have not understood
what you want I think is this:

#!/usr/bin/env python

import pygtk
pygtk.require('2.0')
import gtk
from gtk import gdk

class Base:
def __init__(self):
self.window = gtk.Window(gtk.WINDOW_TOPLEVEL)
self.window.set_decorated(False)
self.window.add_events ( gdk.BUTTON_PRESS_MASK )
self.window.connect ('button-press-event', self.clicked)
self.window.show()

def clicked(self, widget, event):
self.window.begin_move_drag(event.button, int(event.x_root), int(event.y_root), event.time)

def main(self):
gtk.main()

if __name__ == "__main__":
base = Base()
base.main()

Looks good... will try it when I get onto my ubuntu PC

this script detects mousedown anywhere within the window? This fixes another problem of mine.

Worked like a charm...
