Detailed Description

Base class for Gtk::HButtonBox and Gtk::VButtonBox.

A button box should be used to provide a consistent layout of buttons throughout your application. There is one default layout and a default spacing value that are persistant across all ButtonBox widgets.

Member Function Documentation

bool Gtk::ButtonBox::get_child_secondary

(

const Gtk::Widget&

child

)

const

Returns whether child should appear in a secondary group of children.

Since gtkmm 2.4:

Parameters:

child

A child of widget.

Returns:

Whether child should appear in a secondary group of children.

ButtonBoxStyle Gtk::ButtonBox::get_layout

(

)

const

Retrieves the method being used to arrange the buttons in a button box.

Returns:

The method used to lay out buttons in widget.

const GtkButtonBox* Gtk::ButtonBox::gobj

(

)

const [inline]

Provides access to the underlying C GtkObject.

Reimplemented from Gtk::Box.

Reimplemented in Gtk::VButtonBox, and Gtk::HButtonBox.

GtkButtonBox* Gtk::ButtonBox::gobj

(

)

[inline]

Provides access to the underlying C GtkObject.

Reimplemented from Gtk::Box.

Reimplemented in Gtk::VButtonBox, and Gtk::HButtonBox.

Glib::PropertyProxy<ButtonBoxStyle> Gtk::ButtonBox::property_layout_style

(

)

How to lay out the buttons in the box.

Possible values are: spread, edge, start and end.

You rarely need to use properties because there are get_ and set_ methods for almost all of them.

Returns:

A PropertyProxy that allows you to get or set the property of the value, or receive notification when the value of the property changes.

Glib::PropertyProxy_ReadOnly<ButtonBoxStyle> Gtk::ButtonBox::property_layout_style

(

)

const

How to lay out the buttons in the box.

Possible values are: spread, edge, start and end.

You rarely need to use properties because there are get_ and set_ methods for almost all of them.

Returns:

A PropertyProxy that allows you to get or set the property of the value, or receive notification when the value of the property changes.

void Gtk::ButtonBox::set_child_secondary	(	Widget&	child,
		bool	is_secondary = true
	)

Sets whether child should appear in a secondary group of children.

A typical use of a secondary child is the help button in a dialog.

This group appears after the other children if the style is Gtk::BUTTONBOX_START, Gtk::BUTTONBOX_SPREAD or Gtk::BUTTONBOX_EDGE, and before the other children if the style is Gtk::BUTTONBOX_END. For horizontal button boxes, the definition of before/after depends on direction of the widget (see Gtk::Widget::set_direction()). If the style is Gtk::BUTTONBOX_START or Gtk::BUTTONBOX_END, then the secondary children are aligned at the other end of the button box from the main children. For the other styles, they appear immediately next to the main children.

Parameters:

child	A child of widget.
is_secondary	If true, the child appears in a secondary group of the button box.

void Gtk::ButtonBox::set_layout

(

ButtonBoxStyle

layout_style

)

Changes the way buttons are arranged in their container.

Parameters:

layout_style

The new layout style.
