Implemented Interfaces

GtkMenuToolButton implements AtkImplementorIface, GtkBuildable and GtkActivatable.

Includes

#include <gtk/gtk.h>

Description

A GtkMenuToolButton is a GtkToolItem that contains a button and a small additional button with an arrow. When clicked, the arrow button pops up a dropdown menu.

GtkMenuToolButton as GtkBuildable

The GtkMenuToolButton implementation of the GtkBuildable interface supports adding a menu by specifying "menu" as the "type" attribute of a <child> element.

Types and Values

struct GtkMenuToolButton

struct GtkMenuToolButton;

The GtkMenuToolButton struct contains only private data and should only be accessed through the functions described below.

Property Details

The “menu” property

  “menu”                     GtkMenu *

The dropdown menu.

Flags: Read / Write

Signal Details

The “show-menu” signal

void
user_function (GtkMenuToolButton *button,
               gpointer           user_data)

The ::show-menu signal is emitted before the menu is shown.

It can be used to populate the menu on demand, using gtk_menu_tool_button_get_menu().

Note that even if you populate the menu dynamically in this way, you must set an empty menu on the GtkMenuToolButton beforehand, since the arrow is made insensitive if the menu is not set.

Parameters

button

the object on which the signal is emitted

 

user_data

user data set when the signal handler was connected.

 

Flags: Run First
