Detailed Description

A GtkAccelGroup represents a group of keyboard accelerators, typically attached to a toplevel GtkWindow (with gtkWindowAddAccelGroup). Usually you won't need to create a GtkAccelGroup directly; instead, when using GtkItemFactory, GTK+ automatically sets up the accelerators for your menus in the item factory's GtkAccelGroup. Note that accelerators are different from mnemonics. Accelerators are shortcuts for activating a menu item; they appear alongside the menu item they're a shortcut for. For example "Ctrl+Q" might appear alongside the "Quit" menu item. Mnemonics are shortcuts for GUI elements such as text entries or buttons; they appear as underlined characters. See gtkLabelNewWithMnemonic. Menu items can have both accelerators and mnemonics, of course.

Structures

GtkAccelGroup
An object representing and maintaining a group of accelerators.
GtkAccelKey
undocumented GtkAccelKey is a transparent-type.
accelKey
[numeric]
accelMods
[GdkModifierType]
accelFlags
[numeric]

Convenient Construction

gtkAccelGroup is the equivalent of gtkAccelGroupNew.

User Functions

GtkAccelGroupActivate()
undocumented
GtkAccelGroupFindFunc()
Since 2.2

Signals

accel-activate(accel.group, acceleratable, keyval, modifier, user.data)
The accel-activate signal is an implementation detail of GtkAccelGroup and not meant to be used by applications.
accel.group
the GtkAccelGroup which received the signal
acceleratable
the object on which the accelerator was activated
keyval
the accelerator keyval
modifier
the modifier combination of the accelerator
user.data
user data set when the signal handler was connected.
Returns: [logical] TRUE if the accelerator was activated
accel-changed(accel.group, keyval, modifier, accel.closure, user.data)
The accel-changed signal is emitted when a GtkAccelGroupEntry is added to or removed from the accel group. Widgets like GtkAccelLabel which display an associated accelerator should connect to this signal, and rebuild their visual representation if the accel.closure is theirs.
accel.group
the GtkAccelGroup which received the signal
keyval
the accelerator keyval
modifier
the modifier combination of the accelerator
accel.closure
the GClosure of the accelerator
user.data
user data set when the signal handler was connected.

Properties

is-locked [logical : Read]
Is the accel group locked. Default value: FALSE
modifier-mask [GdkModifierType : Read]
Modifier Mask. Default value: GDK_SHIFT_MASK|GDK_CONTROL_MASK|GDK_MOD1_MASK|GDK_SUPER_MASK|GDK_HYPER_MASK|GDK_META_MASK
