[pygtk] combobox selection

[Kelvin Ho]

Hi,

I'm not sure if I understand you correctly. You want a ComboBox that, when
focussed and a key is pressed, immediately jumps to the cities starting with
the letter, right?

In that case, you just do it like this:


def key_pressed(widget, event):
  print event.keyval

combobox = gtk.combo_box_new_text()
combobox.append_text("HAI")
combobox.connect("key-press-event", key_pressed)

window = gtk.Window()
window.add(combobox)
window.connect("destroy", gtk.main_quit)
window.show_all()

gtk.main()

You'll need to figure out how to connect the event to display the right
cities. Hope that helped.
