Glyph window became active/inactive event

bahman

Hi,

Is there any event that indicates if the glyph window has become active/inactive? Actually becoming inactive is more important in my case.

Thanks

@gferreira Thank you Gustavo. I had no idea those notifications are also for the glyph window focus. Great!

hello @bahman,

I think you’re looking for viewDidChangeGlyph and viewWillChangeGlyph. (I found them using the EventObserver extension)

here’s an example:

from vanilla import FloatingWindow
from mojo.events import addObserver, removeObserver
from defconAppKit.windows.baseWindow import BaseWindowController

class TestWindow(BaseWindowController):
    
    def __init__(self):
        self.w = FloatingWindow((123, 123))
        addObserver(self, 'viewDidChangeGlyphCallback', "viewDidChangeGlyph")
        addObserver(self, 'viewWillChangeGlyphCallback', "viewWillChangeGlyph")
        self.setUpBaseWindowBehavior()
        self.w.open()

    def windowCloseCallback(self, sender):
        removeObserver(self, 'viewDidChangeGlyph')
        removeObserver(self, 'viewWillChangeGlyph')
        super(TestWindow, self).windowCloseCallback(sender)

    def viewDidChangeGlyphCallback(self, notification):
        glyph = notification['glyph']
        print(f'entering glyph window ({glyph.name})')

    def viewWillChangeGlyphCallback(self, notification):
        glyph = notification['glyph']
        print(f'exiting glyph window ({glyph.name})')

TestWindow()

cheers!
