CSS nodes

GtkGrid uses a single CSS node with name grid.

gtk_grid_new ()

GtkWidget *
gtk_grid_new (void);

Creates a new grid widget.

gtk_grid_attach ()

void
gtk_grid_attach (GtkGrid *grid,
                 GtkWidget *child,
                 gint left,
                 gint top,
                 gint width,
                 gint height);

Adds a widget to the grid.

The position of child is determined by left and top . The number of “cells” that child will occupy is determined by width and height .

gtk_grid_attach_next_to ()

void
gtk_grid_attach_next_to (GtkGrid *grid,
                         GtkWidget *child,
                         GtkWidget *sibling,
                         GtkPositionType side,
                         gint width,
                         gint height);

Adds a widget to the grid.

The widget is placed next to sibling , on the side determined by side . When sibling is NULL, the widget is placed in row (for left or right placement) or column 0 (for top or bottom placement), at the end indicated by side .

Attaching widgets labeled [1], [2], [3] with sibling == NULL and side == GTK_POS_LEFT yields a layout of 3[1].

gtk_grid_get_child_at ()

GtkWidget *
gtk_grid_get_child_at (GtkGrid *grid,
                       gint left,
                       gint top);

Gets the child of grid whose area covers the grid cell whose upper left corner is at left , top .

Since: 3.2

gtk_grid_insert_row ()

void
gtk_grid_insert_row (GtkGrid *grid,
                     gint position);

Inserts a row at the specified position.

Children which are attached at or below this position are moved one row down. Children which span across this position are grown to span the new row.

Since: 3.2

void
gtk_grid_insert_column (GtkGrid *grid,
                        gint position);

Since: 3.2

gtk_grid_remove_row ()

void
gtk_grid_remove_row (GtkGrid *grid,
                     gint position);

Children that are placed in this row are removed, spanning children that overlap this row have their height reduced by one, and children below the row are moved up.

Since: 3.10

void
gtk_grid_remove_column (GtkGrid *grid,
                        gint position);

Children that are placed in this column are removed, spanning children that overlap this column have their width reduced by one, and children after the column are moved to the left.

Since: 3.10

gtk_grid_insert_next_to ()

void
gtk_grid_insert_next_to (GtkGrid *grid,
                         GtkWidget *sibling,
                         GtkPositionType side);

Inserts a row or column at the specified position.

The new row or column is placed next to sibling , on the side determined by side . If side is GTK_POS_TOP or GTK_POS_BOTTOM, a row is inserted. If side is GTK_POS_LEFT of GTK_POS_RIGHT, a column is inserted.

Since: 3.2

gtk_grid_set_row_homogeneous ()

                              gboolean homogeneous);

Sets whether all rows of grid will have the same height.

gtk_grid_get_row_homogeneous ()

gboolean
gtk_grid_get_row_homogeneous (GtkGrid *grid);

Returns whether all rows of grid have the same height.

gtk_grid_set_row_spacing ()

void
gtk_grid_set_row_spacing (GtkGrid *grid,
                          guint spacing);

Sets the amount of space between rows of grid .

gtk_grid_get_row_spacing ()
