Which Gtk container signal detects that a mouse pointer is on top of the widget?












2















I have a Grid container with 4 buttons. I need to catch a signal that can recognize that a mouse pointer is hovering on top of a Button. I don't want to click a button yet. I just want to detect pointer presence.
