Botones

gtkmm proporciona cuatro tipos básicos de botones:

Push buttons

Gtk::Button. Botones estándar, normalmente marcados con una etiqueta o imagen. Presionar uno desencadena una acción. Consulte la sección botón.

Botones conmutables

Gtk::ToggleButton. A diferencia de un botón normal, que baja y sube en la misma pulsación, un botón conmutable se queda abajo hasta que lo vuelve a presionar. Puede ser útil como conmutador de encendido/apagado. Consulte la sección botón conmutador.

Check buttons

Gtk::CheckButton. These act like ToggleButtons, but show their state in small squares, with their label at the side. They should be used in most situations which require an on/off setting. See the CheckButton section.

Botones de radio

Named after the station selectors on old car radios, these buttons are used in groups for options which are mutually exclusive. Pressing one causes all the others in its group to turn off. They are similar to ToggleButtons or CheckButtons (a small widget with a label at the side), but usually look different. There is no separate radio button class. Check buttons and toggle buttons can act as radio buttons. See the Radio Button section.

Note that, due to GTK's theming system, the appearance of these widgets will vary. In the case of check buttons and radio buttons, they may vary considerably.
