Description

GtkStyleContext is an object that stores styling information affecting a widget defined by GtkWidgetPath.

In order to construct the final style information, GtkStyleContext queries information from all attached GtkStyleProviders. Style providers can be either attached explicitly to the context through gtk_style_context_add_provider(), or to the screen through gtk_style_context_add_provider_for_screen(). The resulting style is a combination of all providers’ information in priority order.

For GTK+ widgets, any GtkStyleContext returned by gtk_widget_get_style_context() will already have a GtkWidgetPath, a GdkScreen and RTL/LTR information set. The style context will be also updated automatically if any of these settings change on the widget.

If you are using the theming layer standalone, you will need to set a widget path and a screen yourself to the created style context through gtk_style_context_set_path() and gtk_style_context_set_screen(), as well as updating the context yourself using gtk_style_context_invalidate() whenever any of the conditions change, such as a change in the “gtk-theme-name” setting or a hierarchy change in the rendered widget.

Style Classes

Widgets can add style classes to their context, which can be used to associate different styles by class (see Selectors).


Style Regions

Widgets can also add regions with flags to their context. This feature is deprecated and will be removed in a future GTK+ update. Please use style classes instead.

The regions used by GTK+ widgets are:

row

Used by GtkTreeView. Can be used with the flags: even, odd.

column

Used by GtkTreeView. Can be used with the flags: first, last, sorted.

column-header

Used by GtkTreeView.

tab

Used by GtkNotebook. Can be used with the flags: even, odd, first, last.


Custom styling in UI libraries and applications

If you are developing a library with custom GtkWidgets that render differently than standard components, you may need to add a GtkStyleProvider yourself with the GTK_STYLE_PROVIDER_PRIORITY_FALLBACK priority, either a GtkCssProvider or a custom object implementing the GtkStyleProvider interface. This way themes may still attempt to style your UI elements in a different way if needed so.

If you are using custom styling on an applications, you probably want then to make your style information prevail to the theme’s, so you must use a GtkStyleProvider with the GTK_STYLE_PROVIDER_PRIORITY_APPLICATION priority, keep in mind that the user settings in XDG_CONFIG_HOME/gtk-3.0/gtk.css will still take precedence over your changes, as it uses the GTK_STYLE_PROVIDER_PRIORITY_USER priority.

Functions

gtk_style_context_new ()

GtkStyleContext *
gtk_style_context_new (void);

Creates a standalone GtkStyleContext, this style context won’t be attached to any widget, so you may want to call gtk_style_context_set_path() yourself.

This function is only useful when using the theming layer separated from GTK+, if you are using GtkStyleContext to theme GtkWidgets, use gtk_widget_get_style_context() in order to get a style context ready to theme the widget.

Returns

A newly created GtkStyleContext.


gtk_style_context_add_provider ()

void
gtk_style_context_add_provider (GtkStyleContext *context,
                                GtkStyleProvider *provider,
                                guint priority);

Adds a style provider to context , to be used in style construction. Note that a style provider added by this function only affects the style of the widget to which context belongs. If you want to affect the style of all widgets, use gtk_style_context_add_provider_for_screen().

Note: If both priorities are the same, a GtkStyleProvider added through this function takes precedence over another added through gtk_style_context_add_provider_for_screen().

Parameters

context

a GtkStyleContext

 

provider

a GtkStyleProvider

 

priority

the priority of the style provider. The lower it is, the earlier it will be used in the style construction. Typically this will be in the range between GTK_STYLE_PROVIDER_PRIORITY_FALLBACK and GTK_STYLE_PROVIDER_PRIORITY_USER

 

Since 3.0


gtk_style_context_add_provider_for_screen ()

void
gtk_style_context_add_provider_for_screen

                                guint priority);

Adds a global style provider to screen , which will be used in style construction for all GtkStyleContexts under screen .

GTK+ uses this to make styling information from GtkSettings available.

Note: If both priorities are the same, A GtkStyleProvider added through gtk_style_context_add_provider() takes precedence over another added through this function.

Parameters

screen

a GdkScreen

 

provider

a GtkStyleProvider

Since 3.0


gtk_style_context_state_is_running ()

gboolean
gtk_style_context_state_is_running (GtkStyleContext *context,
                                    GtkStateType state,
                                    gdouble *progress);

gtk_style_context_state_is_running has been deprecated since version 3.6 and should not be used in newly-written code.

This function always returns FALSE

Returns TRUE if there is a transition animation running for the current region (see gtk_style_context_push_animatable_region()).

If progress is not NULL, the animation progress will be returned there, 0.0 means the state is closest to being unset, while 1.0 means it’s closest to being set. This means transition animation will run from 0 to 1 when state is being set and from 1 to 0 when it’s being unset.

Parameters

context

a GtkStyleContext

 

state

a widget state

 

progress

return location for the transition progress.

[out]

Returns

TRUE if there is a running transition animation for state .

Since 3.0


gtk_style_context_lookup_color ()

gboolean

                                GdkRGBA *color);

Looks up and resolves a color name in the context color map.

Parameters

context

a GtkStyleContext

 

color_name

color name to lookup

 

color

Return location for the looked up color.

[out]

Returns

TRUE if color_name was found and resolved, FALSE otherwise

GtkIconSet *
gtk_style_context_lookup_icon_set (GtkStyleContext *context,
                                   const gchar *stock_id);

gtk_style_context_lookup_icon_set has been deprecated since version 3.10 and should not be used in newly-written code.

Use gtk_icon_theme_lookup_icon() instead.

Looks up stock_id in the icon factories associated to context and the default icon factory, returning an icon set if found, otherwise NULL.

Parameters

context

a GtkStyleContext

 

stock_id

an icon name

 

Returns

The looked up GtkIconSet, or NULL.

[transfer none]


gtk_style_context_notify_state_change ()

void
gtk_style_context_notify_state_change (GtkStyleContext *context,

                                       gpointer region_id,
                                       GtkStateType state,
                                       gboolean state_value);

gtk_style_context_notify_state_change has been deprecated since version 3.6 and should not be used in newly-written code.

This function does nothing.

Notifies a state change on context , so if the current style makes use of transition animations, one will be started so all rendered elements under region_id are animated for state state being set to value state_value .

The window parameter is used in order to invalidate the rendered area as the animation runs, so make sure it is the same window that is being rendered on by the gtk_render_*() functions.

If region_id is NULL, all rendered elements using context will be affected by this state transition.

As a practical example, a GtkButton notifying a state transition on the prelight state:

1
2
3
4
5
gtk_style_context_notify_state_change (context,
                                       gtk_widget_get_window (widget),
                                       NULL,
                                       GTK_STATE_PRELIGHT,
                                       button->in_button);

Can be handled in the CSS file like this:

1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
GtkButton {
    background-color: #f00
}

GtkButton:hover {
    background-color: #fff;
    transition: 200ms linear
}

This combination will animate the button background from red to white if a pointer enters the button, and back to red if the pointer leaves the button.

Note that state is used when finding the transition parameters, which is why the style places the transition under the :hover pseudo-class.

window

a GdkWindow

 

region_id

animatable region to notify on, or NULL. See gtk_style_context_push_animatable_region().

Since 3.0


gtk_style_context_push_animatable_region ()

void
gtk_style_context_push_animatable_region
                               (GtkStyleContext *context,
                                gpointer region_id);

gtk_style_context_push_animatable_region has been deprecated since version 3.6 and should not be used in newly-written code.

This function does nothing.

Pushes an animatable region, so all further gtk_render_*() calls between this call and the following gtk_style_context_pop_animatable_region() will potentially show transition animations for this region if gtk_style_context_notify_state_change() is called for a given state, and the current theme/style defines transition animations for state changes.

The region_id used must be unique in context so the themes can uniquely identify rendered elements subject to a state transition.

Parameters

context

a GtkStyleContext

 

region_id

unique identifier for the animatable region

gtk_style_context_cancel_animations has been deprecated since version 3.6 and should not be used in newly-written code.

This function does nothing.

Stops all running animations for region_id and all animatable regions underneath.

A NULL region_id will stop all ongoing animations in context , when dealing with a GtkStyleContext obtained through gtk_widget_get_style_context(), this is normally done for you in all circumstances you would expect all widget to be stopped, so this should be only used in complex widgets with different animatable regions.

Parameters

context

a GtkStyleContext

 

region_id

animatable region to stop, or NULL. See gtk_style_context_push_animatable_region().

[allow-none]
