Only emit Gtk.Range value_changed signal when user stops dragging

Question

So I have a slider created with the following:

var myscale = new Gtk.Scale.with_range(Gtk.Orientation.HORIZONTAL, 0, 100, 0.1);

I can listen for changes on the scale with:

myscale.value_changed.connect(() => {
    message("%f".printf(myscale.get_value()));
});

But this prints out the value while the user is dragging, and I only want to know when the value has changed. I tried using the state_changed signal, but that seems to only emit when the user hovers, not when the user actually interacts with the widget.

Answer 1

Use the GtkWidget "button-release-event" with "After" flag
