Description

GtkWidgetPath is a boxed type that represents a widget hierarchy from the topmost widget, typically a toplevel, to any child. This widget path abstraction is used in StyleContext on behalf of the real widget in order to query style information.

If you are using GTK+ widgets, you probably will not need to use this API directly, as there is widgetGetPath, and the style context returned by widgetGetStyleContext will be automatically updated on widget hierarchy changes.

The widget path generation is generally simple:

Defining a button within a window

C code

{
  GtkWidgetPath *path;

  path = gtk_widget_path_new ();
  gtk_widget_path_append_type (path, GTK_TYPE_WINDOW);
  gtk_widget_path_append_type (path, GTK_TYPE_BUTTON);
}

Although more complex information, such as widget names, or different classes (property that may be used by other widget types) and intermediate regions may be included:

Defining the first tab widget in a notebook

C code

{
  GtkWidgetPath *path;
  guint pos;

  path = gtk_widget_path_new ();

  pos = gtk_widget_path_append_type (path, GTK_TYPE_NOTEBOOK);
  gtk_widget_path_iter_add_region (path, pos, "tab", GTK_REGION_EVEN | GTK_REGION_FIRST);

  pos = gtk_widget_path_append_type (path, GTK_TYPE_LABEL);
  gtk_widget_path_iter_set_name (path, pos, "first tab label");
}

All this information will be used to match the style information that applies to the described widget.

Methods

appendForWidget

widgetPathAppendForWidget Source #

Arguments

:: (HasCallStack, MonadIO m, IsWidget a) 
=> WidgetPath

path: a widget path

-> a

widget: the widget to append to the widget path

-> m Int32

Returns: the position where the data was inserted

Appends the data from widget to the widget hierarchy represented by path. This function is a shortcut for adding information from widget to the given path. This includes setting the name or adding the style classes from widget.

Since: 3.2

appendType

widgetPathAppendType Source #

Arguments

:: (HasCallStack, MonadIO m) 
=> WidgetPath

path: a WidgetPath

-> GType

type: widget type to append

-> m Int32

Returns: the position where the element was inserted

Appends a widget type to the widget hierarchy represented by path.

Since: 3.0

appendWithSiblings

widgetPathAppendWithSiblings Source #

Arguments

:: (HasCallStack, MonadIO m) 
=> WidgetPath

path: the widget path to append to

-> WidgetPath

siblings: a widget path describing a list of siblings. This path may not contain any siblings itself and it must not be modified afterwards.

-> Word32

siblingIndex: index into siblings for where the added element is positioned.

-> m Int32

Returns: the position where the element was inserted.

Appends a widget type with all its siblings to the widget hierarchy represented by path. Using this function instead of widgetPathAppendType will allow the CSS theming to use sibling matches in selectors and apply :nth-child() pseudo classes. In turn, it requires a lot more care in widget implementations as widgets need to make sure to call widgetResetStyle on all involved widgets when the siblings path changes.

Since: 3.2

copy
