Detailed Description

A class representing an adjustable bounded value.

The Gtk::Adjustment object represents a value which has an associated lower and upper bound, together with step and page increments, and a page size. It is used within several gtkmm widgets, including Gtk::SpinButton, Gtk::Viewport, and Gtk::Range (which is a base class for Gtk::HScrollbar, Gtk::VScrollbar, Gtk::HScale, and Gtk::VScale).

The Gtk::Adjustment object does not update the value itself. Instead it is left up to the owner of the Gtk::Adjustment to control the value.

The owner of the Gtk::Adjustment typically calls the value_changed() and changed() functions after changing the value and its bounds. This results in the emission of the "value_changed" or "changed" signal respectively.


Constructor & Destructor Documentation

virtual Gtk::Adjustment::~Adjustment ( ) [virtual]
Gtk::Adjustment::Adjustment ( double  value,
double  lower,
double  upper,
double  step_increment = 1,
double  page_increment = 10,
double  page_size = 0 
) [protected]

Constructor to create an Adjustment object.

Parameters:
valueThe initial value
lowerThe minimum value
upperThe maximum value
step_incrementThe step increment
page_incrementThe page increment
page_sizeThe page size

Member Function Documentation

void Gtk::Adjustment::changed ( )

Emits a "changed" signal from the Adjustment.

This is typically called by the owner of the Adjustment after it has changed any of the Adjustment fields other than the value.

void Gtk::Adjustment::clamp_page ( double  lower,
double  upper 
)

Updates the Adjustment value to ensure that the range between the parameters lower and upper is in the current page (i.e. between value and value + page_size).

If this range is larger than the page size, then only the start of it will be in the current page. A "changed" signal will be emitted if the value is changed.

Parameters:
upperThe upper value.
lowerThe lower value.
void Gtk::Adjustment::configure ( double  value,
double  lower,
double  upper,
double  step_increment,
double  page_increment,
double  page_size 
)

Sets all properties of the adjustment at once.

Use this function to avoid multiple emissions of the "changed" signal. See set_lower() for an alternative way of compressing multiple emissions of "changed" into one.

void Gtk::Adjustment::set_lower ( double  lower)

Sets the minimum value of the adjustment.

When setting multiple adjustment properties via their individual setters, multiple "changed" signals will be emitted. However, since the emission of the "changed" signal is tied to the emission of the "GObject::notify" signals of the changed properties, it's possible to compress the "changed" signals into one by calling Glib::object_freeze_notify() and Glib::object_thaw_notify() around the calls to the individual setters.

Alternatively, using a single Glib::object_set() for all the properties to change, or using configure() has the same effect of compressing "changed" emissions.

Since gtkmm 2.14:
Parameters:
lowerThe new minimum value.
void Gtk::Adjustment::set_page_increment ( double  page_increment)

Sets the page increment of the adjustment.

See set_lower() about how to compress multiple emissions of the "changed" signal when setting multiple adjustment properties.
