AppChooserButton

The gtk.AppChooserButton is a widget that lets the user select an application. It implements the GtkAppChooser interface.

Initially, a gtk.AppChooserButton selects the first application in its list, which will either be the most-recently used application or, if show-default-item is TRUE, the default application.

The list of applications shown in a gtk.AppChooserButton includes the recommended applications for the given content type. When show-default-item is set, the default application is also included. To let the user chooser other applications, you can set the show-dialog-item property, which allows to open a full gtk.AppChooserDialog

It is possible to add custom items to the list, using AppChooserButton.appendCustomItem. These items cause the custom-item-activated signal to be emitted when they are selected.

To track changes in the selected application, use the changed signal.

Functions

addOnCustomItemActivated gulong addOnCustomItemActivated(void delegate(string, AppChooserButton) dlg, ConnectFlags connectFlags): Emitted when a custom item, previously added with AppChooserButton.appendCustomItem, is activated from the dropdown menu.
appendCustomItem void appendCustomItem(string name, string label, IconIF icon): Appends a custom item to the list of applications that is shown in the popup; the item name must be unique per-widget. Clients can use the provided name as a detail for the custom-item-activated signal, to add a callback for the activation of a particular custom item in the list. See also AppChooserButton.appendSeparator.
appendSeparator void appendSeparator(): Appends a separator to the list of applications that is shown in the popup.
getAppChooserButtonStruct GtkAppChooserButton* getAppChooserButtonStruct(bool transferOwnership): Get the main Gtk struct
getHeading string getHeading(): Returns the text to display at the top of the dialog.
getShowDefaultItem bool getShowDefaultItem(): Returns the current value of the show-default-item property.
getShowDialogItem bool getShowDialogItem(): Returns the current value of the show-dialog-item property.
getStruct void* getStruct(): the main Gtk struct as a void*
setActiveCustomItem void setActiveCustomItem(string name): Selects a custom item previously added with AppChooserButton.appendCustomItem.
setHeading void setHeading(string heading): Sets the text to display at the top of the dialog. If the heading is not set, the dialog displays a default text.
setShowDefaultItem void setShowDefaultItem(bool setting): Sets whether the dropdown menu of this button should show the default application for the given content type at top.
setShowDialogItem void setShowDialogItem(bool setting): Sets whether the dropdown menu of this button should show an entry to trigger a gtk.AppChooserDialog

From ComboBox

gtkComboBox GtkComboBox* gtkComboBox;: the main Gtk struct
getComboBoxStruct GtkComboBox* getComboBoxStruct(bool transferOwnership): Get the main Gtk struct
getStruct void* getStruct(): the main Gtk struct as a void*
getType GType getType()
getActive int getActive(): Returns the index of the currently active item, or -1 if there’s no active item. If the model is a non-flat treemodel, and the active item is not an immediate child of the root of the tree, this function returns gtk_tree_path_get_indices (path)[0], where path is the gtk.TreePath of the active item.
getActiveId string getActiveId(): Returns the ID of the active row of combo_box. This value is taken from the active row and the column specified by the id-column property of combo_box (see ComboBox.setIdColumn).
getActiveIter bool getActiveIter(TreeIter iter): Sets iter to point to the currently active item, if any item is active. Otherwise, iter is left unchanged.
getAddTearoffs bool getAddTearoffs(): Gets the current value of the :add-tearoffs property.
getButtonSensitivity GtkSensitivityType getButtonSensitivity(): Returns whether the combo box sets the dropdown button sensitive or not when there are no items in the model.
getColumnSpanColumn int getColumnSpanColumn(): Returns the column with column span information for combo_box.
getEntryTextColumn int getEntryTextColumn(): Returns the column which combo_box is using to get the strings from to display in the internal entry.
getFocusOnClick bool getFocusOnClick(): Returns whether the combo box grabs focus when it is clicked with the mouse. See ComboBox.setFocusOnClick.
getHasEntry bool getHasEntry(): Returns whether the combo box has an entry.
getIdColumn int getIdColumn(): Returns the column which combo_box is using to get string IDs for values from.
getModel TreeModelIF getModel(): Returns the gtk.TreeModel which is acting as data source for combo_box.
getPopupAccessible ObjectAtk getPopupAccessible(): Gets the accessible object corresponding to the combo box’s popup.
getPopupFixedWidth bool getPopupFixedWidth(): Gets whether the popup uses a fixed width matching the allocated width of the combo box.
getRowSeparatorFunc GtkTreeViewRowSeparatorFunc getRowSeparatorFunc(): Returns the current row separator function.
getRowSpanColumn int getRowSpanColumn(): Returns the column with row span information for combo_box.
getTitle string getTitle(): Gets the current title of the menu in tearoff mode. See ComboBox.setAddTearoffs.
getWrapWidth int getWrapWidth(): Returns the wrap width which is used to determine the number of columns for the popup menu. If the wrap width is larger than 1, the combo box is in table mode.
popdown void popdown(): Hides the menu or dropdown list of combo_box.
popup void popup(): Pops up the menu or dropdown list of combo_box.
popupForDevice void popupForDevice(Device device): Pops up the menu or dropdown list of combo_box, the popup window will be grabbed so only device and its associated pointer/keyboard are the only gdk.Devices able to send events to it.
setActive void setActive(int index): Sets the active item of combo_box to be the item at index.
setActiveId bool setActiveId(string activeId): Changes the active row of combo_box to the one that has an ID equal to active_id, or unsets the active row if active_id is NULL. Rows having a NULL ID string cannot be made active by this function.
setActiveIter void setActiveIter(TreeIter iter): Sets the current active item to be the one referenced by iter, or unsets the active item if iter is NULL.
setAddTearoffs void setAddTearoffs(bool addTearoffs): Sets whether the popup menu should have a tearoff menu item.
setButtonSensitivity void setButtonSensitivity(GtkSensitivityType sensitivity): Sets whether the dropdown button of the combo box should be always sensitive (GTK_SENSITIVITY_ON), never sensitive (GTK_SENSITIVITY_OFF) or only if there is at least one item to display (GTK_SENSITIVITY_AUTO).
setColumnSpanColumn void setColumnSpanColumn(int columnSpan): Sets the column with column span information for combo_box to be column_span. The column span column contains integers which indicate how many columns an item should span.
setEntryTextColumn void setEntryTextColumn(int textColumn): Sets the model column which combo_box should use to get strings from to be text_column. The column text_column in the model of combo_box must be of type G_TYPE_STRING.
setFocusOnClick void setFocusOnClick(bool focusOnClick): Sets whether the combo box will grab focus when it is clicked with the mouse. Making mouse clicks not grab focus is useful in places like toolbars where you don’t want the keyboard focus removed from the main area of the application.
setIdColumn void setIdColumn(int idColumn): Sets the model column which combo_box should use to get string IDs for values from. The column id_column in the model of combo_box must be of type G_TYPE_STRING.

The can be due to the user selecting a different item from the list, or due to a call to ComboBox.setActiveIter. It will also be emitted while typing into the entry of a combo box with an entry.
addOnFormatEntryText gulong addOnFormatEntryText(string delegate(string, ComboBox) dlg, ConnectFlags connectFlags): For combo boxes that are created with an entry (See GtkComboBox:has-entry).
addOnMoveActive gulong addOnMoveActive(void delegate(GtkScrollType, ComboBox) dlg, ConnectFlags connectFlags): The ::move-active signal is a [keybinding signal]GtkBindingSignal which gets emitted to move the active selection.
