Detailed Description

A single line text entry field.

The Gtk::Entry widget is a single line text entry widget. A fairly large set of key bindings are supported by default. If the entered text is longer than the allocation of the widget, the widget will scroll so that the cursor position is visible.

The Entry widget looks like this:

Glib::RefPtr<Pango::Layout> Gtk::Entry::get_layout

(

)

Gets the Pango::Layout used to display the entry.

The layout is useful to e.g. convert text positions to pixel positions, in combination with get_layout_offsets(). The returned layout is owned by the entry and must not be modified or freed by the caller.

Keep in mind that the layout text may contain a preedit string, so layout_index_to_text_index() and text_index_to_layout_index() are needed to convert byte indices in the layout to byte indices in the entry contents.

Returns

The Pango::Layout for this entry.

Glib::RefPtr<const Pango::Layout> Gtk::Entry::get_layout

(

)

const

Gets the Pango::Layout used to display the entry.

The layout is useful to e.g. convert text positions to pixel positions, in combination with get_layout_offsets(). The returned layout is owned by the entry and must not be modified or freed by the caller.

Keep in mind that the layout text may contain a preedit string, so layout_index_to_text_index() and text_index_to_layout_index() are needed to convert byte indices in the layout to byte indices in the entry contents.

Returns

The Pango::Layout for this entry.

void Gtk::Entry::get_layout_offsets	(	int &	x,
		int &	y
	)

Obtains the position of the Pango::Layout used to render text in the entry, in widget coordinates.

Useful if you want to line up the text in an entry with some other text, e.g. when using the entry to implement editable cells in a sheet widget.

Also useful to convert mouse events into coordinates inside the Pango::Layout, e.g. to take some action if some part of the entry text is clicked.

Note that as the user scrolls around in the entry the offsets will change; you’ll need to connect to the “notify::scroll-offset” signal to track this. Remember when using the Pango::Layout functions you need to convert to and from pixels using PANGO_PIXELS() or Pango::SCALE.

Keep in mind that the layout text may contain a preedit string, so layout_index_to_text_index() and text_index_to_layout_index() are needed to convert byte indices in the layout to byte indices in the entry contents.

Parameters

x	Location to store X offset of layout, or nullptr.
y	Location to store Y offset of layout, or nullptr.

int Gtk::Entry::get_max_length

(

)

(

)

const

Retrieves the desired maximum width of entry, in characters.

See set_max_width_chars().

Since gtkmm 3.12:

Returns

The maximum width of the entry, in characters.

bool Gtk::Entry::get_overwrite_mode

(

)

const

Gets the value set by set_overwrite_mode().

Since gtkmm 2.14:

Returns

Whether the text is overwritten when typing.

Glib::ustring Gtk::Entry::get_placeholder_text

(

)

const

Retrieves the text that will be displayed when entry is empty and unfocused.

Since gtkmm 3.2:

Returns

A pointer to the placeholder text as a string. This string points to internally allocated storage in the widget and must not be freed, modified or stored.

double Gtk::Entry::get_progress_fraction

(

)

const

Returns the current fraction of the task that’s been completed.

See set_progress_fraction().

Since gtkmm 2.16:

Returns

A fraction from 0.0 to 1.0.

double Gtk::Entry::get_progress_pulse_step

(

)

Retrieves the pulse step set with set_progress_pulse_step().

Since gtkmm 2.16:

Returns

A fraction from 0.0 to 1.0.

Pango::TabArray Gtk::Entry::get_tabs

(

)

const

Gets the tabstops that were set on the entry using set_tabs(), if any.

Since gtkmm 3.10:

Returns

The tabstops, or nullptr if none was set.

Glib::ustring Gtk::Entry::get_text

(

)

const

Retrieves the contents of the entry widget.

See also Gtk::Editable::get_chars().

Returns

The contents of the entry widget.

Gdk::Rectangle Gtk::Entry::get_text_area

(

)

const

Returns the area where the entry's text is drawn.

This function is useful when drawing something to the entry in a draw callback.

See also get_icon_area().

Returns

The location for the text area.

Since gtkmm 3.0:

guint16 Gtk::Entry::get_text_length

(

)

const

Retrieves the current length of the text in entry.

This is equivalent to:

[C example ellipted]

Since gtkmm 2.14:

Returns

The current number of characters in Gtk::Entry, or 0 if there are none.

static GType Gtk::Entry::get_type ( )

static

Get the GType for this class, for use with the underlying GObject type system.

bool Gtk::Entry::get_visibility

Provides access to the underlying C GtkObject.

const GtkEntry* Gtk::Entry::gobj ( ) const

inline

Provides access to the underlying C GtkObject.

void Gtk::Entry::grab_focus_without_selecting

(

)

Causes entry to have keyboard focus.

It behaves like Gtk::Widget::grab_focus(), except that it doesn't select the contents of the entry. You only want to call this on some special entries which the user usually doesn't want to replace all text in, such as search-as-you-type entries.

Since gtkmm 3.16:

bool Gtk::Entry::im_context_filter_keypress

(

GdkEventKey *

gdk_event

)

Allow the Gtk::Entry input method to internally handle key press and release events.

If this function returns true, then no further processing should be done for this key event. See gtk_im_context_filter_keypress().

Note that you are expected to call this function from your handler when overriding key event handling. This is needed in the case when you need to insert your own key handling between the input method and the default key event handling of the Gtk::Entry. See Gtk::TextView::reset_im_context() for an example of use.

Since gtkmm 2.22:

Parameters

gdk_event

The key event.

Returns

true if the input method handled the key event.

int Gtk::Entry::layout_index_to_text_index

(

Since gtkmm 2.22:

void Gtk::Entry::set_activates_default

(

bool

setting = true

)

If setting is true, pressing Enter in the entry will activate the default widget for the window containing the entry.

This usually means that the dialog box containing the entry will be closed, since the default widget is usually one of the dialog buttons.

(For experts: if setting is true, the entry calls Gtk::Window::activate_default() on the window containing the entry, in the default handler for the Gtk::Entry::signal_activate() signal.)

Parameters

setting

true to activate window’s default widget on Enter keypress.

void Gtk::Entry::set_alignment

(

float

xalign

)

Sets the alignment for the contents of the entry.

This controls the horizontal positioning of the contents when the displayed text is shorter than the width of the entry.

attrs

)

Sets a Pango::AttrList; the attributes in the list are applied to the entry text.

Since gtkmm 3.6:

Parameters

attrs

A Pango::AttrList.

void Gtk::Entry::set_buffer

(

const Glib::RefPtr< EntryBuffer >&

buffer

)

Set the Gtk::EntryBuffer object which holds the text for this widget.

Since gtkmm 2.18:

Parameters

buffer

A Gtk::EntryBuffer.

void Gtk::Entry::set_completion

(

const Glib::RefPtr< EntryCompletion >&

completion

)

Sets completion to be the auxiliary completion object to use with entry.

All further configuration of the completion mechanism is done on completion using the Gtk::EntryCompletion API. Completion is disabled if completion is set to nullptr.

Since gtkmm 2.4:

Parameters

completion

The Gtk::EntryCompletion or nullptr.

void Gtk::Entry::set_cursor_hadjustment

(

const Glib::RefPtr< Adjustment >&

adjustment

)

Hooks up an adjustment to the cursor position in an entry, so that when the cursor is moved, the adjustment is scrolled to show that position.

See Gtk::ScrolledWindow::get_hadjustment() for a typical way of obtaining the adjustment.

The adjustment has to be in pixel units and in the same coordinate system as the entry.

Since gtkmm 2.12:

Parameters

adjustment

An adjustment which should be adjusted when the cursor is moved, or nullptr.

void Gtk::Entry::set_has_frame

(

bool

setting = true

		EntryIconPosition	icon_pos = ENTRY_ICON_PRIMARY
	)

Sets whether the icon is activatable.

Since gtkmm 2.16:

Parameters

icon_pos	Icon position.
activatable	true if the icon should be activatable.

void Gtk::Entry::set_icon_drag_source	(	const Glib::RefPtr< TargetList >&	target_list,
		Gdk::DragAction	actions = Gdk::ACTION_COPY,
		EntryIconPosition	icon_pos = ENTRY_ICON_PRIMARY
	)

Sets up the icon at the given position so that GTK+ will start a drag operation when the user clicks and drags the icon.

To handle the drag operation, you need to connect to the usual Gtk::Widget::signal_drag_data_get() (or possibly Gtk::Widget::signal_drag_data_delete()) signal, and use get_current_icon_drag_source() in your signal handler to find out if the drag was started from an icon.

By default, GTK+ uses the icon as the drag icon. You can use the Gtk::Widget::signal_drag_begin() signal to set a different icon. Note that you have to use Glib::signal_connect_after() to ensure that your signal handler gets executed after the default handler.

Since gtkmm 2.16:

Parameters

icon_pos	Icon position.
target_list	The targets (data formats) in which the data can be provided.
actions	A bitmask of the allowed drag actions.

	)

Sets the icon shown in the entry at the specified position from the current icon theme.

If the icon isn’t known, a “broken image” icon will be displayed instead.

If icon is nullptr, no icon will be shown in the specified position.

Since gtkmm 2.16:

Parameters

icon_pos	The position at which to set the icon.
icon	The icon to set, or nullptr.

void Gtk::Entry::set_icon_from_icon_name	(	const Glib::ustring &	icon_name,
		EntryIconPosition	icon_pos = ENTRY_ICON_PRIMARY

		EntryIconPosition	icon_pos = ENTRY_ICON_PRIMARY
	)

Sets tooltip as the contents of the tooltip for the icon at the specified position.

tooltip is assumed to be marked up with the [Pango text markup language][PangoMarkupFormat].

Use nullptr for tooltip to remove an existing tooltip.

See also Gtk::Widget::set_tooltip_markup() and set_icon_tooltip_text().

Since gtkmm 2.16:

Parameters

icon_pos	The icon position.
tooltip	The contents of the tooltip for the icon, or nullptr.

void Gtk::Entry::set_icon_tooltip_text	(	const Glib::ustring &	tooltip,

void Gtk::Entry::set_inner_border

(

const Border&

border

)

Sets entry’s inner-border property to border, or clears it if nullptr is passed.

The inner-border is the area around the entry’s text, but inside its frame.

If set, this property overrides the inner-border style property. Overriding the style-provided border is useful when you want to do in-place editing of some text in a canvas or list widget, where pixel-exact positioning of the entry is important.

Since gtkmm 2.10:

Deprecated: 3.4: Use the standard border and padding CSS properties (through objects like Gtk::StyleContext and Gtk::CssProvider); the value set with this function is ignored by Gtk::Entry.

Deprecated:

Use the standard border and padding CSS properties instead (through classes like StyleContext and CssProvider).

Parameters

border

A Gtk::Border, or nullptr.

void Gtk::Entry::set_input_hints

(

InputHints

hints

)

Sets the Gtk::Entry::property_input_hints() property, which allows input methods to fine-tune their behaviour.

Since gtkmm 3.6:

Parameters

hints

The hints.

void Gtk::Entry::set_input_purpose

(

InputPurpose

purpose

)

Sets the Gtk::Entry::property_input_purpose() property which can be used by on-screen keyboards and other input methods to adjust their behaviour.

Since gtkmm 3.6:

Parameters

purpose

The purpose.

void Gtk::Entry::set_invisible_char

(

gunichar

ch

)

Sets the character to use in place of the actual text when set_visibility() has been called to set text visibility to false.

i.e. this is the character used in “password mode” to show the user how many characters have been typed. By default, GTK+ picks the best invisible char available in the current font. If you set the invisible char to 0, then the user will get no feedback at all; there will be no text on the screen as they type.

Parameters

ch	A Unicode character.

void Gtk::Entry::set_max_length

(

int

max

)

Sets the maximum allowed length of the contents of the widget.

If the current contents are longer than the given length, then they will be truncated to fit.

This is equivalent to:

[C example ellipted]

Parameters

max	The maximum length of the entry, or 0 for no maximum. (other than the maximum length of entries.) The value passed in will be clamped to the range 0-65536.

void Gtk::Entry::set_max_width_chars

(

int

n_chars

)

Sets the desired maximum width in characters of entry.

Since gtkmm 3.12:

Parameters

n_chars

The new desired maximum width, in characters.

void Gtk::Entry::set_overwrite_mode

(

bool

overwrite = true

)

Sets whether the text is overwritten when typing in the Gtk::Entry.

Since gtkmm 2.14:

Parameters

overwrite

New value.

void Gtk::Entry::set_placeholder_text

(

const Glib::ustring &

text

)

Sets text to be displayed in entry when it is empty and unfocused.

This can be used to give a visual hint of the expected contents of the Gtk::Entry.

Note that since the placeholder text gets removed when the entry received focus, using this feature is a bit problematic if the entry is given the initial focus in a window. Sometimes this can be worked around by delaying the initial focus setting until the first key event arrives.

Since gtkmm 3.2:

Parameters

text	A string to be displayed when entry is empty and unfocused, or nullptr.

void Gtk::Entry::set_progress_fraction

(

double

fraction

)

Causes the entry’s progress indicator to “fill in” the given fraction of the bar.

The fraction should be between 0.0 and 1.0, inclusive.

Since gtkmm 2.16:

Parameters

fraction

Fraction of the task that’s been completed.

void Gtk::Entry::set_progress_pulse_step

(

double

fraction

)

Sets the fraction of total entry width to move the progress bouncing block for each call to progress_pulse().

Since gtkmm 2.16:

Parameters

fraction

Fraction between 0.0 and 1.0.

void Gtk::Entry::set_tabs

(

const Pango::TabArray &

tabs

)

Sets a Pango::TabArray; the tabstops in the array are applied to the entry text.

Since gtkmm 3.10:

Parameters

tabs	A Pango::TabArray.

void Gtk::Entry::set_text

(

const Glib::ustring &

text

)

Sets the text in the widget to the given value, replacing the current contents.

See Gtk::EntryBuffer::set_text().

Parameters

text	The new text.

void Gtk::Entry::set_visibility

(

bool

visible = true

)

Sets whether the contents of the entry are visible or not.

When visibility is set to false, characters are displayed as the invisible char, and will also appear that way when the text in the entry widget is copied elsewhere.

By default, GTK+ picks the best invisible character available in the current font, but it can be changed with set_invisible_char().

Note that you probably want to set Gtk::Entry::property_input_purpose() to Gtk::INPUT_PURPOSE_PASSWORD or Gtk::INPUT_PURPOSE_PIN to inform input methods about the purpose of this entry, in addition to setting visibility to false.

Parameters

visible

true if the contents of the entry are displayed as plaintext.

void Gtk::Entry::set_width_chars

(

int

n_chars

)

Changes the size request of the entry to be about the right size for n_chars characters.

Note that it changes the size request, the size can still be affected by how you pack the widget into containers. If n_chars is -1, the size reverts to the default entry size.

Parameters

n_chars

Width in chars.

Glib::SignalProxy< void > Gtk::Entry::signal_activate

(

)

Slot Prototype:

void on_my_activate()

The signal_activate() signal is emitted when the user hits the Enter key.

While this signal is used as a [keybinding signal][GtkBindingSignal], it is also commonly used by applications to intercept activation of entries.

The default bindings for this signal are all forms of the Enter key.

Glib::SignalProxy< void,EntryIconPosition,const GdkEventButton* > Gtk::Entry::signal_icon_press

(

)

Slot Prototype:

void on_my_icon_press(EntryIconPosition icon_position, const GdkEventButton* event)

The signal_icon_press() signal is emitted when an activatable icon is clicked.

Since gtkmm 2.16:

Parameters

icon_position	The position of the clicked icon.
event	The button press event.

Glib::SignalProxy< void,EntryIconPosition,const GdkEventButton* > Gtk::Entry::signal_icon_release

(

)

Slot Prototype:

void on_my_icon_release(EntryIconPosition icon_position, const GdkEventButton* event)

This signal has no default bindings.

Parameters

str	The string to insert.

Glib::SignalProxy< void,Menu* > Gtk::Entry::signal_populate_popup

(

)

Slot Prototype:

void on_my_populate_popup(Menu* menu)

The signal_populate_popup() signal gets emitted before showing the context menu of the entry.

If you need to add items to the context menu, connect to this signal and append your items to the widget, which will be a Gtk::Menu in this case.

If Gtk::Entry::property_populate_all() is true, this signal will also be emitted to populate touch popups. In this case, widget will be a different container, e.g. a Gtk::Toolbar. The signal handler should not make assumptions about the type of widget.

Parameters

menu	The container that is being populated.

int Gtk::Entry::text_index_to_layout_index

(

int

text_index

)

const

Converts from a position in the entry’s Pango::Layout (returned by get_layout()) to a position in the entry contents (returned by get_text()).
