Description
GtkIconView provides an alternative view on a list model.
It displays the model as a grid of icons with labels. Like
GtkTreeView, it allows to select one or multiple items
(depending on the selection mode, see gtk_icon_view_set_selection_mode()
).
In addition to selection with the arrow keys, GtkIconView supports
rubberband selection, which is controlled by dragging the pointer.
Functions
GtkIconViewForeachFunc ()
void (*GtkIconViewForeachFunc) (GtkIconView *icon_view
,GtkTreePath *path
,gpointer data
);
A function used by gtk_icon_view_selected_foreach()
to map all
selected rows. It will be called on every selected row in the view.
gtk_icon_view_new ()

0.0 means left/top alignment, 1.0 means right/bottom alignment, 0.5 means
center.
If use_align
is FALSE

position. If the item is currently visible on the screen, nothing is done.
This function only works if the model is set, and path
is a valid row on
the model. If the model changes before the icon_view
is realized, the
centered path will be modified to reflect this change.
Parameters

|
use_align |
whether to use alignment arguments, or |
|
row_align |

tooltips the item returned will be the cursor item. When TRUE
, then any of
model
, path

that row and the corresponding model. x
and y
will always be converted
to be relative to icon_view
's bin_window if keyboard_tooltip

Since 2.8
gtk_icon_view_set_reorderable ()
void gtk_icon_view_set_reorderable (GtkIconView *icon_view
,gboolean reorderable
);
This function is a convenience function to allow you to reorder models that
support the GtkTreeDragSourceIface and the GtkTreeDragDestIface. Both
GtkTreeStore and GtkListStore support these. If reorderable
is TRUE
, then
the user can reorder the model by dragging and dropping rows. The
developer can listen to these changes by connecting to the model's
row_inserted and row_deleted signals. The reordering is implemented by setting up
the icon view as a drag source and destination. Therefore, drag and
drop can not be used in a reorderable view for any other purpose.
This function does not give you any degree of control over the order -- any reordering is allowed. If more control is needed, you should probably handle drag and drop manually.
Since 2.8
gtk_icon_view_get_reorderable ()
gboolean
gtk_icon_view_get_reorderable (GtkIconView *icon_view
);
Retrieves whether the user can reorder the list via drag-and-drop.
