Grab_Default

[Manuel Op de Coul]

I'm looking for the opposite function to Gtk.Widget.Grab_Default, i.e.
the one that unsets a widget as default widget.
Thanks in advance,

Manuel

You might be able to do a Grab_Default on another widget, which will still the
default set on the original widget.
If that isn't what you want (for instance because you do not want a default
widget -- not recommended according to most GUI guidelines I am aware of),
you might be able to do it with:

  Gtk.Object.Unset_Flags (Button, Gtk.Widget.Can_Default);

According to the GNOME Human Interface Guidelines 2.0 it's allowed, on page 82:

"Once a dialog is displayed, do not change its default button from one button to another. You
may add or remove default status from the same button if it helps prevent user error, however.
Changing the default from one button to another can be confusing and inefficient, especially
for users relying on assistive technologies."

Thanks, that will work. I expected there to be a way without affecting this flag though.
