Interfaces

GtkNotebook implements AtkImplementorIface and GtkBuildable.

Detailed Description

The GtkNotebook widget is a GtkContainer whose children are pages that can be switched between using tab labels along one edge. There are many configuration options for GtkNotebook. Among other things, you can choose on which edge the tabs appear (see gtkNotebookSetTabPos), whether, if there are too many tabs to fit the notebook should be made bigger or scrolling arrows added (see gtk_notebook_set_scrollable), and whether there will be a popup menu allowing the users to switch pages. (see gtkNotebookPopupEnable, gtkNotebookPopupDisable)

GtkNotebook as GtkBuildable

The GtkNoteboopk implementation of the GtkBuildable interface supports placing children into tabs by specifying "tab" as the "type" attribute of a element. Note that the content of the tab must be created before the tab can be filled. A tab child can be specified without specifying a type attribute. To add a child widget in the notebooks action area, specify "action-start" or "action-end" as the "type" attribute of the element. A UI definition fragment with GtkNotebook

Convenient Construction

gtkNotebook is the equivalent of gtkNotebookNew.

User Functions

Signals

change-current-page(notebook, user.data)
undocumented
notebook
the object which received the signal.
user.data
user data set when the signal handler was connected.
create-window(notebook, page, x, y, user.data)
The ::create-window signal is emitted when a detachable tab is dropped on the root window. A handler for this signal can create a window containing a notebook where the tab will be attached. It is also responsible for moving/resizing the window and adding the necessary properties to the notebook (e.g. the "group-id" ). The default handler uses the global window creation hook, if one has been set with gtkNotebookSetWindowCreationHook. Since 2.12
notebook
the GtkNotebook emitting the signal
page
the tab of notebook that is being detached
x
the X coordinate where the drop happens
y
the Y coordinate where the drop happens
user.data
user data set when the signal handler was connected.
Returns: [GtkNotebook] a GtkNotebook that page should be added to, or NULL.
focus-tab(notebook, user.data)
undocumented
notebook
the object which received the signal.
user.data
user data set when the signal handler was connected.
move-focus-out(notebook, user.data)
undocumented
notebook
the object which received the signal.
user.data
user data set when the signal handler was connected.
page-added(notebook, child, page.num, user.data)
the ::page-added signal is emitted in the notebook right after a page is added to the notebook. Since 2.10
notebook
the GtkNotebook
child
the child GtkWidget affected
page.num
the new page number for child
user.data
user data set when the signal handler was connected.
page-removed(notebook, child, page.num, user.data)
the ::page-removed signal is emitted in the notebook right after a page is removed from the notebook. Since 2.10
notebook
the GtkNotebook
child
the child GtkWidget affected
page.num
the child page number
user.data
user data set when the signal handler was connected.
page-reordered(notebook, child, page.num, user.data)
the ::page-reordered signal is emitted in the notebook right after a page has been reordered. Since 2.10
notebook
the GtkNotebook
child
the child GtkWidget affected
page.num
the new page number for child
user.data
user data set when the signal handler was connected.
reorder-tab(notebook, user.data)
undocumented
notebook
the object which received the signal.
user.data
user data set when the signal handler was connected.
select-page(notebook, user.data)
undocumented
notebook
the object which received the signal.
user.data
user data set when the signal handler was connected.
switch-page(notebook, page, page.num, user.data)
Emitted when the user or a function changes the current page.
notebook
the object which received the signal.
page
the new current page
page.num
the index of the page
user.data
user data set when the signal handler was connected.
