Description

Functions

gtk_toggle_button_new ()

GtkWidget *
gtk_toggle_button_new (void);

gtk_toggle_button_new_with_label ()

GtkWidget *
gtk_toggle_button_new_with_label (const gchar *label);

gtk_toggle_button_new_with_mnemonic ()

GtkWidget *
gtk_toggle_button_new_with_mnemonic (const gchar *label);

Creates a new GtkToggleButton containing a label. The label will be created using gtk_label_new_with_mnemonic(), so underscores in label indicate the mnemonic for the button.

Parameters

label

the text of the button, with an underscore in front of the mnemonic character

 

returns

a new GtkToggleButton

 

gtk_toggle_button_set_mode ()

void
gtk_toggle_button_set_mode (GtkToggleButton *toggle_button,
                            gboolean draw_indicator);

Sets whether the button is displayed as a separate indicator and label. You can call this function on a checkbutton or a radiobutton with draw_indicator = FALSE to make the button look like a normal button

This function only affects instances of classes like GtkCheckButton and GtkRadioButton that derive from GtkToggleButton, not instances of GtkToggleButton itself.

Parameters

toggle_button

a GtkToggleButton

 

draw_indicator

if TRUE, draw the button as a separate indicator and label; if FALSE, draw the button like a normal button

 

gtk_toggle_button_get_mode ()

gboolean
gtk_toggle_button_get_mode (GtkToggleButton *toggle_button);

Retrieves whether the button is displayed as a separate indicator and label. See gtk_toggle_button_set_mode().

Parameters

toggle_button

a GtkToggleButton

 

Returns

TRUE if the togglebutton is drawn as a separate indicator and label.


gtk_toggle_button_toggled ()

void
gtk_toggle_button_toggled (GtkToggleButton *toggle_button);

gtk_toggle_button_get_active ()

gboolean
gtk_toggle_button_get_active (GtkToggleButton *toggle_button);

gtk_toggle_button_set_active ()

void
gtk_toggle_button_set_active (GtkToggleButton *toggle_button,
                              gboolean is_active);

gtk_toggle_button_get_inconsistent ()

gboolean
gtk_toggle_button_get_inconsistent (GtkToggleButton *toggle_button);

Gets the value set by gtk_toggle_button_set_inconsistent().

Parameters

toggle_button

a GtkToggleButton

 

Returns

TRUE if the button is displayed as inconsistent, FALSE otherwise


gtk_toggle_button_set_inconsistent ()

void
gtk_toggle_button_set_inconsistent (GtkToggleButton *toggle_button,
                                    gboolean setting);

If the user has selected a range of elements (such as some text or spreadsheet cells) that are affected by a toggle button, and the current values in that range are inconsistent, you may want to display the toggle in an "in between" state. This function turns on "in between" display. Normally you would turn off the inconsistent state again if the user toggles the toggle button. This has to be done manually, gtk_toggle_button_set_inconsistent() only affects visual appearance, it doesn't affect the semantics of the button.

Parameters

toggle_button

a GtkToggleButton

 

setting

TRUE if state is inconsistent
