Closing a PyGTK window, if the focus is gain and, after, lost

Question

I have a program in Python3 that can change the volume of my system. The behavior I want is it to be like a popup window which will destroy itself after the window, first, get focus and, after, lost focus.

My code has two problems. The first, It does not close itself when the focus is lost, giving me an error:

on_focus_out_event() takes 2 positional arguments, but 3 were given.

And yet, even solving this error, it wouldn't accomplish my desired behavior.

This is my first program written in Python, unfortunately, I need a close help with this. If someone could help me, I would really appreciate it.

        super().__init__(*args, **kwargs)

        self.set_border_width(0)
        self.set_size_request(500, -1)

        scale_float = Gtk.Scale.new_with_range(Gtk.Orientation.HORIZONTAL, 0.0, 153, 1.0)
        scale_float.set_value_pos(Gtk.PositionType.LEFT)
        scale_float.connect('value-changed', self.on_value_changed)
        scale_float.show_all()

        label_box = Gtk.Box()
        label_box.pack_start(
        Gtk.Image.new_from_icon_name('audio-volume-high', 1), False, False,5)
        label_box.pack_start(Gtk.Label(label=''), True, True, 0)
        label_box.show_all()

        notebook = Gtk.Notebook()
        notebook.append_page(scale_float, label_box)
        notebook.set_tab_pos(Gtk.PositionType.RIGHT)
            
        self.connect('focus-out-event', self.on_focus_out_event)
        self.add(notebook)
        self.show_all()

        proc = subprocess.Popen('pactl set-sink-volume 0 ' + str(val) + '%', shell=True, stdout=subprocess.PIPE)
        proc.wait()

        self.destroy()

        self.window = None
    
    def do_activate(self):
        if not self.window:
            self.window = AppWindow(application=self,title="")
            self.window.show_all()
            self.window.present()

    app = Application()
    app.run(sys.argv)

Answer 1

With the answer of Alperen, I was able to make an app that can mute and change my system's volume. My application will only close if the scale have been changed or if the button was toggled at least one time and, after, the window loses its focus. It's not my first wanted behavior, but I think it's even better implemented now.

P.S.: I am not sure if the code is indented correctly.

Answer 2

focus-out-event requires three arguments. Add the window argument to self, event on line 41.

    def on_focus_out_event(self, event, window):
        self.destroy()
