Function Documentation
void Gtk::AccelMap::add_entry | ( | const std::string & | accel_path, |
guint | accel_key, | ||
Gdk::ModifierType | accel_mods | ||
) |
Registers a new accelerator with the global accelerator map.
This function should only be called once per accel_path with the canonical accel_key and accel_mods for this path. To change the accelerator during runtime programatically, use change_entry(). The accelerator path must consist of "<WINDOWTYPE>/Category1/Category2/.../Action", where <WINDOWTYPE> should be a unique application-specific identifier, that corresponds to the kind of window the accelerator is being used in, e.g. "Gimp-Image", "Abiword-Document" or "Gnumeric-Settings". The Category1/.../Action portion is most appropriately chosen by the action the accelerator triggers, i.e. for accelerators on menu items, choose the item's menu path, e.g. "File/Save As", "Image/View/Zoom" or "Edit/Select All". So a full valid accelerator path may look like: "<Gimp-Toolbox>/File/Dialogs/Tool Options...".
- Parameters
-
accel_path valid accelerator path accel_key the accelerator key accel_mods the accelerator modifiers
bool Gtk::AccelMap::change_entry | ( | const std::string & | accel_path, |
guint | accel_key, | ||
Gdk::ModifierType | accel_mods, | ||
bool | replace | ||
) |
Changes the accel_key and accel_mods currently associated with accel_path.
Due to conflicts with other accelerators, a change may not always be possible, replace indicates whether other accelerators may be deleted to resolve such conflicts. A change will only occur if all conflicts could be resolved (which might not be the case if conflicting accelerators are locked). Successful changes are indicated by a true return value.
- Parameters
-
accel_path a valid accelerator path accel_key the new accelerator key accel_mods the new accelerator modifiers replace true if other accelerators may be deleted upon conflicts
- Returns
- true if the accelerator could be changed, false otherwise
void Gtk::AccelMap::load | ( | const std::string & | filename | ) |
Parses a file previously saved with save() for accelerator specifications, and propagates them accordingly.
- Parameters
-
filename a file containing accelerator specifications
void Gtk::AccelMap::lock_path | ( | const std::string & | accel_path | ) |
Locks the given accelerator path.
Locking an accelerator path prevents its accelerator from being changed during runtime. A locked accelerator path can be unlocked by unlock_path(). Refer to change_entry() about runtime accelerator changes.
Note that locking of individual accelerator paths is independent from locking the AccelGroup containing them. For runtime accelerator changes to be possible both the accelerator path and its AccelGroup have to be unlocked.
- Parameters
-
accel_path a valid accelerator path
bool Gtk::AccelMap::lookup_entry | ( | const Glib::ustring & | accel_path | ) |
Looks up the accelerator entry for accel_path.
- Parameters
-
accel_path A valid accelerator path.
- Returns
- true if accel_path is known, false otherwise
bool Gtk::AccelMap::lookup_entry | ( | const Glib::ustring & | accel_path, |
Gtk::AccelKey& | key | ||
) |
Looks up the accelerator entry for accel_path and fills in key.
- Parameters
-
accel_path A valid accelerator path. key The accelerator key to be filled in.
- Returns
- true if accel_path is known, false otherwise
void Gtk::AccelMap::save | ( | const std::string & | filename | ) |
Saves current accelerator specifications (accelerator path, key and modifiers) to filename.
The file is written in a format suitable to be read back in by load().
- Parameters
-
filename the file to contain accelerator specifications
void Gtk::AccelMap::unlock_path | ( | const std::string & | accel_path | ) |
Unlocks the given accelerator path.
Refer to gtk_accel_map_lock_path() about accelerator path locking.
- Parameters
-
accel_path a valid accelerator path
