[maemo-developers] hildron_entry and activate signal

[From: Cornelius Hald]

Hi Fred,

I just tried the "activate" signal on HildonEntry and as expected. The
problem, that you cannot activate in scratchbox might be, that the
'Enter' key of our tablets is emitting a 'Keypad-Enter' signal. So to
activate a widget you have to press the 'Enter' key on the keypad.

Another way (for testing) would be to call gtk_widget_activate() on the
HildonEntry. This also should emit the right signal.

Hope that helps!
Conny
