gtk_popover_new ()

GtkWidget *
gtk_popover_new (GtkWidget *relative_to);

Creates a new popover to point to relative_to

Since 3.12

gtk_popover_new_from_model ()

GtkWidget *
gtk_popover_new_from_model (GtkWidget *relative_to,
                            GMenuModel *model);

Creates a GtkPopover and populates it according to model . The popover is pointed to the relative_to widget.

The created buttons are connected to actions found in the GtkApplicationWindow to which the popover belongs - typically by means of being attached to a widget that is contained within the GtkApplicationWindows widget hierarchy.

Actions can also be added using gtk_widget_insert_action_group() on the menus attach widget or on any of its parent widgets.

Since 3.12

gtk_popover_bind_model ()

void
gtk_popover_bind_model (GtkPopover *popover,
                        GMenuModel *model,
                        const gchar *action_namespace);

Establishes a binding between a GtkPopover and a GMenuModel.

The contents of popover are removed and then refilled with menu items according to model . When model changes, popover is updated. Calling this function twice on popover with different model will cause the first binding to be replaced with a binding to the new model. If model is NULL then any previous binding is undone and all children are removed.

If action_namespace is non-NULL then the effect is as if all actions mentioned in the model have their names prefixed with the namespace, plus a dot. For example, if the action “quit” is mentioned and action_namespace is “app” then the effective action name is “app.quit”.

This function uses GtkActionable to define the action name and target values on the created menu items. If you want to use an action group other than “app” and “win”, or if you want to use a GtkMenuShell outside of a GtkApplicationWindow, then you will need to attach your own action group to the widget hierarchy using gtk_widget_insert_action_group(). As an example, if you created a group with a “quit” action and inserted it with the name “mygroup” then you would use the action name “mygroup.quit” in your GMenuModel.

gtk_popover_set_relative_to ()

void
gtk_popover_set_relative_to (GtkPopover *popover,
                             GtkWidget *relative_to);

Sets a new widget to be attached to popover . If popover is visible, the position will be updated.

Note: the ownership of popovers is always given to their relative_to widget, so if relative_to is set to NULL on an attached popover , it will be detached from its previous widget, and consequently destroyed unless extra references are kept.

Since 3.12

gtk_popover_get_relative_to ()

GtkWidget *
gtk_popover_get_relative_to (GtkPopover *popover);

Returns the widget popover is currently attached to

Since 3.12

gtk_popover_set_pointing_to ()

void
gtk_popover_set_pointing_to (GtkPopover *popover,
                             const GdkRectangle *rect);

Sets the rectangle that popover will point to, in the coordinate space of the widget popover is attached to, see gtk_popover_set_relative_to().

Since 3.12

gtk_popover_get_pointing_to ()

gboolean
gtk_popover_get_pointing_to (GtkPopover *popover,
                             GdkRectangle *rect);

If a rectangle to point to has been set, this function will return TRUE and fill in rect with such rectangle, otherwise it will return FALSE and fill in rect with the attached widget coordinates.

gtk_popover_set_position ()

void
gtk_popover_set_position (GtkPopover *popover,
                          GtkPositionType position);

Sets the preferred position for popover to appear. If the popover is currently visible, it will be immediately updated.

This preference will be respected where possible, although on lack of space (eg. if close to the window edges), the GtkPopover may choose to appear on the opposite side

Since 3.12

gtk_popover_get_position ()

GtkPositionType
gtk_popover_get_position (GtkPopover *popover);

Returns the preferred position of popover .

gtk_popover_set_modal ()

void
gtk_popover_set_modal (GtkPopover *popover,
                       gboolean modal);

Sets whether popover is modal, a modal popover will grab all input within the toplevel and grab the keyboard focus on it when being displayed. Clicking outside the popover area or pressing Esc will dismiss the popover and ungrab input.

Since 3.12

gtk_popover_get_modal ()

gboolean
gtk_popover_get_modal (GtkPopover *popover);

Returns whether the popover is modal, see gtk_popover_set_modal to see the implications of this.

Since 3.12

struct GtkPopover

struct GtkPopover;
