[maemo-developers] Text selection and GtkEntry/GtkTextView

[From: Andrey Voropaev]

Hello!

Looks like there's some catch in text selection in
GtkEntry/GtkTextView. In my application I'd like to allow user to
select text and then click on a button to start
working with the selected text. But when the button is clicked, the
selection disappears, so the handler does not find any selection. How
can I make the selection persistent? In regular GTK program the
selection survives the loss of focus, in maemo environment - not.

Thank you
