Subject: [ruby-talk:14852] Ruby/Gtk and signal_emit_stop()

 Hi.

 I have problems with method Gtk::Object.signal_emit_stop. It seems not to
 work at all.

 Look this code:

-----------------
widget_with_entry.signal_connect('key_press_event') do |entry, event|
	if event.keyval == Gdk::GDK_Tab and event.state == Gdk::MOD1_MASK then
		entry.signal_emit_stop('key_press_event')
		print 'This works!'
	end
end
-----------------

 Key combination is captured properly, but signal_emit_stop doesn't work and
 focus pass to next widget (because of Tab key).

 I have borrowed code from Gtk source and it should work.

 I have seen Ruby/Gtk source and not found any clue.

 Ideas, please?...
