void
gtk_header_bar_set_title (GtkHeaderBar *bar,
                          const gchar *title);

Sets the title of the GtkHeaderBar. The title should help a user identify the current view. A good title should not include the application name.

void
gtk_header_bar_set_subtitle (GtkHeaderBar *bar,
                             const gchar *subtitle);

Sets the subtitle of the GtkHeaderBar. The title should give a user an additional detail to help him identify the current view.

Note that GtkHeaderBar by default reserves room for the subtitle, even if none is currently set. If this is not desired, set the “has-subtitle” property to FALSE.

Since: 3.10

gtk_header_bar_get_subtitle ()

const gchar *
gtk_header_bar_get_subtitle (GtkHeaderBar *bar);

Retrieves the subtitle of the header. See gtk_header_bar_set_subtitle().

gtk_header_bar_set_custom_title ()

void
gtk_header_bar_set_custom_title (GtkHeaderBar *bar,
                                 GtkWidget *title_widget);

Sets a custom title for the GtkHeaderBar.

The title should help a user identify the current view. This supersedes any title set by gtk_header_bar_set_title() or gtk_header_bar_set_subtitle(). To achieve the same style as the builtin title and subtitle, use the “title” and “subtitle” style classes.

You should set the custom title to NULL, for the header title label to be visible again.

Since: 3.10

gtk_header_bar_set_decoration_layout ()

void
gtk_header_bar_set_decoration_layout (GtkHeaderBar *bar,
                                      const gchar *layout);

Sets the decoration layout for this header bar, overriding the “gtk-decoration-layout” setting.

There can be valid reasons for overriding the setting, such as a header bar design that does not allow for buttons to take room on the right, or only offers room for a single close button. Split header bars are another example for overriding the setting.

The format of the string is button names, separated by commas. A colon separates the buttons that should appear on the left from those on the right. Recognized button names are minimize, maximize, close, icon (the window icon) and menu (a menu button for the fallback app menu).

For example, “menu:minimize,maximize,close” specifies a menu on the left, and minimize, maximize and close buttons on the right.

gtk_header_bar_get_decoration_layout (GtkHeaderBar *bar);
