Description

The gtk.CellRenderer is a base class for a set of objects used for rendering a cell to a gtk.gdk.Drawable. The gtk.CellRenderer provides the common attributes and methods for its subclasses (gtk.CellRendererPixbuf, gtk.CellRendererText and gtk.CellRendererToggle).

The primary use of a gtk.CellRenderer is for drawing a certain graphical elements on a gtk.gdk.Drawable. Typically, one cell renderer is used to draw many cells on the screen. To this extent, it isn't expected that a CellRenderer keep any permanent state around. Instead, any state is set just prior to use using the GObjects property system. Then, the cell is measured using the get_size() method. Finally, the cell is rendered in the correct location using the render() method.

Methods

gtk.CellRenderer.get_size

    def get_size(widget, cell_area)

widget :

the widget the renderer is rendering to

cell_area :

The area a cell will be allocated, or None

Returns :

a tuple containing the xoffset, yoffset, width and height

The get_size() method obtains the width and height needed to render the cell. These values are returned as part of a tuple containing the x_offset, y_offset, width and height. get_size() is used by view widgets to determine the appropriate size for the cell_area to be passed to the gtk.CellRenderer.render() method. If cell_area is not None, the x and y offsets of the cell relative to this location are returned. Please note that the values set in the returned width and height, as well as those in x_offset and y_offset are inclusive of the xpad and ypad properties.

gtk.CellRenderer.render

    def render(window, widget, background_area, cell_area, expose_area, flags)

window :

a gtk.gdk.Drawable to draw to

widget :

the widget owning window

background_area :

entire cell area (including tree expanders and maybe padding on the sides)

cell_area :

area normally rendered by a cell renderer

expose_area :

area that actually needs updating

flags :

flags that affect rendering

The render() method invokes the virtual render function of the gtk.CellRenderer. The three passed-in rectangles are areas of window. Most renderers will draw within cell_area; the xalign, yalign, xpad, and ypad properties of the gtk.CellRenderer should be honored with respect to cell_area. background_area includes the blank space around the cell, and also the area containing the tree expander; so the background_area rectangles for all cells tile to cover the entire window. expose_area is a clip rectangle.

The flags value is one of: gtk.CELL_RENDERER_SELECTED, gtk.CELL_RENDERER_PRELIT, gtk.CELL_RENDERER_INSENSITIVE or gtk.CELL_RENDERER_SORTED

gtk.CellRenderer.activate

    def activate(event, widget, path, background_area, cell_area, flags)

event :

a gtk.gdk.Event

widget :

widget that received the event

path :

widget-dependent string representation of the event location; e.g. for gtk.TreeView, a string representation of gtk.TreePath

background_area :

background area as passed to render()

cell_area :

cell area as passed to render()

flags :

render flags

Returns :

True if the event was consumed/handled

The activate() method passes an activate event to the cell renderer for possible processing. Some cell renderers may use events; for example, gtk.CellRendererToggle toggles when it gets a mouse click.

The flags value is one of: gtk.CELL_RENDERER_SELECTED, gtk.CELL_RENDERER_PRELIT, gtk.CELL_RENDERER_INSENSITIVE or gtk.CELL_RENDERER_SORTED

gtk.CellRenderer.start_editing

    def start_editing(event, widget, path, background_area, cell_area, flags)

event :

a gtk.gdk.Event

widget :

the widget that received the event

path :

a widget-dependent string representation of the event location; e.g. for gtk.TreeView, a string representation of gtk.TreePath

background_area :

background area as passed to render().

cell_area :

cell area as passed to render()

flags :

render flags

Returns :

A new gtk.CellEditable, or None

The start_editing() method initiates the editing of a cell.

gtk.CellRenderer.editing_canceled

    def editing_canceled()

Note

This method is available in PyGTK 2.4 and above.

Warning

This method is deprecated in PyGTK 2.6 and above. Use the stop_editing() method instead.

The editing_canceled() method causes the cell renderer to emit the "editing-canceled" signal. This method is for use only by implementations of cell renderers that need to notify the client program that an editing process was canceled and the changes were not committed.

gtk.CellRenderer.stop_editing

    def stop_editing(canceled)

canceled :

if True the editing has been canceled

Note

This method is available in PyGTK 2.6 and above.

The stop_editing() method informs the cell renderer that the editing is stopped. If canceled is True, the cell renderer will emit the "editing-canceled" signal. This method should be called by cell renderer implementations in response to the "editing-done" signal of gtk.CellEditable.

gtk.CellRenderer.set_fixed_size

    def set_fixed_size(width, height)

width :

the width of the cell renderer, or -1

height :

the height of the cell renderer, or -1

The set_fixed_size() method sets the renderer size to the specified width and height, independent of the properties set.

gtk.CellRenderer.get_fixed_size

    def get_fixed_size()

Returns :

a tuple containing the width and height of the cell

The get_fixed_size() method retrieves a tuple containing the fixed width and height of the cell.

Signals

The "editing-canceled" gtk.CellRenderer Signal

    def callback(cellrenderer, user_param1, ...)

cellrenderer :

the cellrenderer that received the signal

user_param1 :

the first user parameter (if any) specified with the connect() method

... :

additional user parameters (if any)

Note

This signal is available in GTK+ 2.4 and above.

The "editing-canceled" signal is emitted when the user cancels the process of editing a cell. For example, an editable cell renderer could be written to cancel editing when the user presses Escape. Also see the editing_canceled() method.

The "editing-started" gtk.CellRenderer Signal

    def callback(cellrenderer, editable, path, user_param1, ...)

cellrenderer :

the cellrenderer that received the signal

editable :

the gtk.CellEditable

path :

he path identifying the edited cell

user_param1 :

the first user parameter (if any) specified with the connect() method

... :

additional user parameters (if any)

Note

This signal is available in GTK+ 2.6 and above.

The "editing-started" signal is emitted when a cell starts to be edited. The intended use of this signal is to do special setup on editable, e.g. adding a gtk.EntryCompletion or setting up additional columns in a gtk.ComboBox.

Note that GTK+ doesn't guarantee that cell renderers will continue to use the same kind of widget for editing in future releases, therefore you should check the type of editable before doing any specific setup, as in the following example:

def text_editing_started(cell, editable, path, data):
  if isinstance(editable, gtk.Entry):
      # ... create a GtkEntryCompletion
      completion = gtk.EntryCompletion()
      editable.set_completion(completion)
      ...
  ...
