A gtk bug 8+ years old:

Were you able to get the cursor to show? I am working on an embedded tab in axis and have the same problem. I am also unable to read the entry box using get_text() in the embedded tab. Using the changed signal I am printing to the terminal I am printing the current value of the entry box. When I type into the entry box in the embedded tab the signal is triggered, but the value is not changed. It just prints out an empty string which is the initial value of the entry box. If I show the window outside of the embedded tab though everything works as expected.

I also have a similar problem setting label text. On a button click I can change a label when in a separate window, but not in the embedded tab. Any idea what I need to do to solve this?

Thanks for the reply. I'll have to look into calling O-word subs. I was able to get the get_text() function to work though. I think my problem was in the __init__ I called self.builder.add_from_file('glade_file.glade') and self.builder.connect_signals(self).

After reading some more it looks like connect_signals is automatically called during initialization, so I guess it was confusing something. After I commented out those 2 lines the get_text() function works along with set_text() which I was having trouble with using on labels.
