gimpui

gimpui — Common user interface functions. This header includes all other GIMP User Interface Library headers.

Description

Common user interface functions. This header includes all other GIMP User Interface Library headers.

Functions

gimp_ui_init ()

void
gimp_ui_init (const gchar *prog_name,
              gboolean preview);

This function initializes GTK+ with gtk_init() and initializes GDK's image rendering subsystem (GdkRGB) to follow the GIMP main program's colormap allocation/installation policy.

It also sets up various other things so that the plug-in user looks and behaves like the GIMP core. This includes selecting the GTK+ theme and setting up the help system as chosen in the GIMP preferences. Any plug-in that provides a user interface should call this function.

Parameters

prog_name

The name of the plug-in which will be passed as argv[0] to gtk_init(). It's a convention to use the name of the executable and _not_ the PDB procedure name.

 

preview

This parameter is unused and exists for historical reasons only.

 

gimp_ui_get_display_window ()

GdkWindow *
gimp_ui_get_display_window (guint32 gdisp_ID);

Returns the GdkWindow of a display window. The purpose is to allow to make plug-in dialogs transient to the image display as explained with gdk_window_set_transient_for().

You shouldn't have to call this function directly. Use gimp_window_set_transient_for_display() instead.

Parameters

gdisp_ID

a GimpDisplay ID.

 

Returns

A reference to a GdkWindow or NULL. You should unref the window using g_object_unref() as soon as you don't need it any longer.

Since: 2.4


gimp_ui_get_progress_window ()

GdkWindow *
gimp_ui_get_progress_window (void);

Returns the GdkWindow of the window this plug-in's progress bar is shown in. Use it to make plug-in dialogs transient to this window as explained with gdk_window_set_transient_for().

You shouldn't have to call this function directly. Use gimp_window_set_transient() instead.

Returns

A reference to a GdkWindow or NULL. You should unref the window using g_object_unref() as soon as you don't need it any longer.

Since: 2.4


gimp_window_set_transient ()

void
gimp_window_set_transient (GtkWindow *window);

Indicates to the window manager that window is a transient dialog associated with the GIMP window that the plug-in has been started from. See also gimp_window_set_transient_for_display().

Parameters

window

the GtkWindow that should become transient

 

Since: 2.4


gimp_window_set_transient_for_display ()

void
gimp_window_set_transient_for_display (GtkWindow *window,
                                       guint32 gdisp_ID);

Indicates to the window manager that window is a transient dialog associated with the GIMP image window that is identified by it's display ID. See gdk_window_set_transient_for() for more information.

Most of the time you will want to use the convenience function gimp_window_set_transient().

Parameters

window

the GtkWindow that should become transient

 

gdisp_ID

display ID of the image window that should become the parent

 

Since: 2.4
