Description

Functions

Types and Values

enum GtkBaselinePosition

Whenever a container has some form of natural row it may align children in that row along a common typographical baseline. If the amount of verical space in the row is taller than the total requested height of the baseline-aligned children then it can use a GtkBaselinePosition to select where to put the baseline inside the extra availible space.

Members

GTK_BASELINE_POSITION_TOP	Align the baseline at the top
GTK_BASELINE_POSITION_CENTER	Center the baseline
GTK_BASELINE_POSITION_BOTTOM	Align the baseline at the bottom

Since 3.10

enum GtkDeleteType

Members

GTK_DELETE_CHARS	Delete characters.
GTK_DELETE_WORD_ENDS	Delete only the portion of the word to the left/right of cursor if we’re in the middle of a word.
GTK_DELETE_WORDS	Delete words.
GTK_DELETE_DISPLAY_LINES	Delete display-lines. Display-lines refers to the visible lines, with respect to to the current line breaks. As opposed to paragraphs, which are defined by line breaks in the input.
GTK_DELETE_DISPLAY_LINE_ENDS	Delete only the portion of the display-line to the left/right of cursor.
GTK_DELETE_PARAGRAPH_ENDS	Delete to the end of the paragraph. Like C-k in Emacs (or its reverse).
GTK_DELETE_PARAGRAPHS	Delete entire line. Like C-k in pico.
GTK_DELETE_WHITESPACE	Delete only whitespace. Like M-\ in Emacs.

enum GtkDirectionType

Members

GTK_JUSTIFY_LEFT	The text is placed at the left edge of the label.
GTK_JUSTIFY_RIGHT	The text is placed at the right edge of the label.
GTK_JUSTIFY_CENTER	The text is placed in the center of the label.
GTK_JUSTIFY_FILL	The text is placed is distributed across the label.

enum GtkMovementStep

Members

GTK_MOVEMENT_DISPLAY_LINE_ENDS	Move to either end of a line
GTK_MOVEMENT_PARAGRAPHS	Move up or down paragraphs (newline-ended lines)
GTK_MOVEMENT_PARAGRAPH_ENDS	Move to either end of a paragraph
GTK_MOVEMENT_PAGES	Move by pages
GTK_MOVEMENT_BUFFER_ENDS	Move to ends of the buffer
GTK_MOVEMENT_HORIZONTAL_PAGES	Move horizontally by pages

enum GtkOrientation

Represents the orientation of widgets and other objects which can be switched between horizontal and vertical orientation on the fly, like GtkToolbar or GtkGesturePan.

Members

GTK_ORIENTATION_HORIZONTAL	The element is in horizontal orientation.
GTK_ORIENTATION_VERTICAL	The element is in vertical orientation.

enum GtkPackType

Represents the packing location GtkBox children. (See: GtkVBox, GtkHBox, and GtkButtonBox).

Members

GTK_PACK_START	The child is packed into the start of the box
GTK_PACK_END	The child is packed into the end of the box

enum GtkPositionType

Describes which edge of a widget a certain feature is positioned at, e.g. the tabs of a GtkNotebook, the handle of a GtkHandleBox or the label of a GtkScale.

Members

GTK_POS_LEFT	The feature is at the left edge.
GTK_POS_RIGHT	The feature is at the right edge.
GTK_POS_TOP	The feature is at the top edge.
GTK_POS_BOTTOM	The feature is at the bottom edge.

enum GtkReliefStyle

Indicated the relief to be drawn around a GtkButton.

Members

GTK_RELIEF_NORMAL	Draw a normal relief.
GTK_RELIEF_HALF	A half relief. Deprecated in 3.14, does the same as `GTK_RELIEF_NORMAL`
GTK_RELIEF_NONE	No relief.

enum GtkScrollStep

Members

GTK_SCROLL_STEPS	Scroll in steps.
GTK_SCROLL_PAGES	Scroll by pages.
GTK_SCROLL_ENDS	Scroll to ends.
GTK_SCROLL_HORIZONTAL_STEPS	Scroll in horizontal steps.
GTK_SCROLL_HORIZONTAL_PAGES	Scroll by horizontal pages.
GTK_SCROLL_HORIZONTAL_ENDS	Scroll to the horizontal ends.

enum GtkScrollType

Scrolling types.

Members

GTK_SCROLL_NONE	No scrolling.
GTK_SCROLL_JUMP	Jump to new location.
GTK_SCROLL_STEP_BACKWARD	Step backward.
GTK_SCROLL_STEP_FORWARD	Step forward.
GTK_SCROLL_PAGE_BACKWARD	Page backward.
GTK_SCROLL_PAGE_FORWARD	Page forward.
GTK_SCROLL_STEP_UP	Step up.

enum GtkSelectionMode

Used to control what selections users are allowed to make.

Members

GTK_SELECTION_NONE	No selection is possible.
GTK_SELECTION_SINGLE	Zero or one element may be selected.
GTK_SELECTION_BROWSE	Exactly one element is selected. In some circumstances, such as initially or during a search operation, it’s possible for no element to be selected with `GTK_SELECTION_BROWSE`. What is really enforced is that the user can’t deselect a currently selected element except by selecting another element.
GTK_SELECTION_MULTIPLE	Any number of elements may be selected. The Ctrl key may be used to enlarge the selection, and Shift key to select between the focus and the child pointed to. Some widgets may also allow Click-drag to select a range of elements.

enum GtkShadowType
