Gtk::Orientable Class Reference

Inheritance diagram for Gtk::Orientable:

List of all members.


Detailed Description

This interface is implemented by all widgets that can be oriented horizontally or vertically.

Historically, such widgets have been realized as subclasses of a common base class (e.g GtkBox/GtkHBox/GtkVBox and GtkScale/GtkHScale/GtkVScale). GtkOrientable is more flexible in that it allows the orientation to be changed at runtime, allowing the widgets to 'flip'.

Since gtkmm 2.16:

static void Gtk::Orientable::add_interface ( GType  gtype_implementer  )  [static]

Orientation Gtk::Orientable::get_orientation (  )  const

Retrieves the orientation of the orientable.

Returns:
The orientation of the orientable.
Since gtkmm 2.16:

const GtkOrientable* Gtk::Orientable::gobj (  )  const [inline]

Provides access to the underlying C GObject.

Reimplemented from Glib::Interface.

GtkOrientable* Gtk::Orientable::gobj (  )  [inline]

Provides access to the underlying C GObject.

Reimplemented from Glib::Interface.

Glib::PropertyProxy_ReadOnly<Orientation> Gtk::Orientable::property_orientation (  )  const

The orientation of the orientable.

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<Orientation> Gtk::Orientable::property_orientation (  ) 

The orientation of the orientable.

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::Orientable::set_orientation ( Orientation  orientation  ) 

Sets the orientation of the orientable.

Since gtkmm 2.16:
Parameters:
orientation The orientable's new orientation.


Friends And Related Function Documentation

Glib::RefPtr<Gtk::Orientable> wrap ( GtkOrientable *  object,
bool  take_copy = false 
) [related]

A Glib::wrap() method for this object.

Parameters:
object The C instance.
take_copy False if the result should take ownership of the C instance. True if it should take a new copy or ref.
Returns:
A C++ instance that wraps this C instance.
