Detailed Description

A drop-down menu consisting of Gtk::MenuItem objects which can be navigated and activated by the user to perform application functions.

Menus are normally placed inside a Gtk::MenuBar or another MenuItem as a sub menu. A Menu can also be popped up, for instance as a right-click context menu, by calling the popup() method.

buttonThe mouse button which was pressed to initiate the event.
activate_timeThe time at which the activation event occurred.

void Gtk::Menu::reorder_child ( const MenuItem child,
int  position 
)
void Gtk::Menu::reposition ( )
void Gtk::Menu::set_accel_group ( const Glib::RefPtr< AccelGroup >&  accel_group)
void Gtk::Menu::set_accel_path ( const Glib::ustring accel_path)

Sets an accelerator path for this menu from which accelerator paths for its immediate children, its menu items, can be constructed.

The main purpose of this function is to spare the programmer the inconvenience of having to call Gtk::MenuItem::set_accel_path() on each menu item that should support runtime user changable accelerators. Instead, by just calling set_accel_path() on their parent, each menu item of this menu, that contains a label describing its purpose, automatically gets an accel path assigned. For example, a menu containing menu items "New" and "Exit", will, after gtk_menu_set_accel_path (menu, "<Gnumeric-Sheet>/File"); has been called, assign its items the accel paths: "<Gnumeric-Sheet>/File/New" and "<Gnumeric-Sheet>/File/Exit". Assigning accel paths to menu items then enables the user to change their accelerators at runtime. More details about accelerator paths and their default setups can be found at Gtk::AccelMap::add_entry().

Note that accel_path string will be stored in a Quark. Therefore, if you pass a static string, you can save some memory by interning it first with Glib::intern_static_string().

Parameters
accel_pathA valid accelerator path.
void Gtk::Menu::set_active ( guint  index)
void Gtk::Menu::set_monitor ( int  monitor_num)

Informs GTK+ on which monitor a menu should be popped up.

See gdk_screen_get_monitor_geometry().

This function should be called from a Gtk::MenuPositionFunc if the menu should not appear on the same monitor as the pointer. This information can't be reliably inferred from the coordinates returned by a Gtk::MenuPositionFunc, since, for very long menus, these coordinates may extend beyond the monitor boundaries or even the screen boundaries.

Since gtkmm 2.4:
Parameters
monitor_numThe number of the monitor on which the menu should be popped up.
void Gtk::Menu::set_reserve_toggle_size ( bool  reserve_toggle_size = true)

Sets whether the menu should reserve space for drawing toggles or icons, regardless of their actual presence.

Since gtkmm 2.18:
Parameters
reserve_toggle_sizeWhether to reserve size for toggles.
void Gtk::Menu::set_screen ( const Glib::RefPtr< Gdk::Screen >&  screen)

Sets the Gdk::Screen on which the menu will be displayed.

Since gtkmm 2.2:
Parameters
screenA Gdk::Screen, or nullptr if the screen should be determined by the widget the menu is attached to.
void Gtk::Menu::set_tearoff_state ( bool  torn_off = true)
void Gtk::Menu::set_title ( const Glib::ustring title)

Sets the title string for the menu.

The title is displayed when the menu is shown as a tearoff menu. If title is nullptr, the menu will see if it is attached to a parent menu item, and if so it will try to use the same text as that menu item's label.

Parameters
titleA string containing the title for the menu.
void Gtk::Menu::unset_accel_group ( )
void Gtk::Menu::unset_title ( )
