Cannot use arrow keys to navigate the popup from gtk combobox on win32 #471655

["Neil Watson" <nowatson gmail com>]

Hi,

I filed this enhancement request last week, and since then I have taken a 
look at the source and come up with a patch.  Unfortunately I have no idea 
on how to compile gtk on windows despite my best efforts.  I will post my 
patch here in the hope that someone who can sucessfully compile gtk can 
spare a few minutes to test it.

It should be inserted at line 3699 which is the gtk_combo_box_list_key_press 
function of gtkcombobox.c.  (Either 2.10.13 or 2.10.14)



if (event->keyval == GDK_Down || event->keyval == GDK_KP_Down || 
event->keyval == GDK_Up || event->keyval == GDK_KP_Up)
{
if (gtk_tree_row_reference_valid (combo_box->priv->active_row))
{
 GtkTreePath *path = NULL;
 path = gtk_tree_row_reference_get_path (combo_box->priv->active_row);

 if (path)
 {
  if (event->keyval == GDK_Down || event->keyval == GDK_KP_Down)
  {
   gtk_tree_path_next(path);
  }
  if (event->keyval == GDK_Up || event->keyval == GDK_KP_Up)
  {
   gtk_tree_path_prev(path);
  }
  gtk_tree_view_set_cursor (GTK_TREE_VIEW (combo_box->priv->tree_view),
    path, NULL, FALSE);
  gtk_tree_path_free (path);
 }
}
}


thanks,
Neil
