I am using gtk# at monodev and i’m trying to do a simple GUI application that gets weight input and converts it to kg or lbs. Firstly, i’m trying to understand the basics, i wanted to know how to get the entry input after clicking my button and displaying that input text in my label.

This is how my MainWindow.cs looks.

I created a simple signal button that closes the program if i click the Convert button.

using System;
using Gtk;

public partial class MainWindow : Gtk.Window
{
    public MainWindow() : base(Gtk.WindowType.Toplevel)
    {
        Build();
    }

    protected void OnDeleteEvent(object sender, DeleteEventArgs a)
    {
        Application.Quit();
        a.RetVal = true;
    }

    // Convert button
    protected void OnButton3Clicked(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        Application.Quit();
    }
}

I wanted to get the text from entry and displaying it after clicking convert button
