AppChooserWidget

gtk.AppChooserWidget is a widget for selecting applications. It is the main building block for gtk.AppChooserDialog Most applications only need to use the latter; but you can use this widget as part of a larger widget if you have special needs.

gtk.AppChooserWidget offers detailed control over what applications are shown, using the show-default, show-recommended, show-fallback, show-other and show-all

properties. See the GtkAppChooser documentation for more information about these groups of applications.

To keep track of the selected application, use the application-selected and application-activated signals.

CSS nodes

GtkAppChooserWidget has a single CSS node with name appchooser.

Constructors

this
this(GtkAppChooserWidget* gtkAppChooserWidget, bool ownedRef)

this
this(string contentType)

Creates a new gtk.AppChooserWidget for applications that can handle content of the given type.

Functions

addOnApplicationActivated
gulong addOnApplicationActivated(void delegate(AppInfoIF, AppChooserWidget) dlg, ConnectFlags connectFlags)

Emitted when an application item is activated from the widget's list.

addOnApplicationSelected
gulong addOnApplicationSelected(void delegate(AppInfoIF, AppChooserWidget) dlg, ConnectFlags connectFlags)

Emitted when an application item is selected from the widget's list.

addOnPopulatePopup
gulong addOnPopulatePopup(void delegate(Menu, AppInfoIF, AppChooserWidget) dlg, ConnectFlags connectFlags)

Emitted when a context menu is about to popup over an application item. Clients can insert menu items into the provided gtk.Menu object in the callback of this signal; the context menu will be shown over the item if at least one item has been added to the menu.

getAppChooserWidgetStruct
GtkAppChooserWidget* getAppChooserWidgetStruct(bool transferOwnership)

Get the main Gtk struct

getDefaultText
string getDefaultText()

Returns the text that is shown if there are not applications that can handle the content type.

getShowAll
bool getShowAll()

Returns the current value of the show-all property.

getShowDefault
bool getShowDefault()

Returns the current value of the show-default property.

bool getShowFallback()

Returns the current value of the show-fallback property.

getShowOther
bool getShowOther()

Returns the current value of the show-other property.

getShowRecommended
bool getShowRecommended()

Returns the current value of the show-recommended property.

getStruct
void* getStruct()

the main Gtk struct as a void*

setDefaultText

Sets the text that is shown if there are not applications that can handle the content type.

setShowAll
void setShowAll(bool setting)

Sets whether the app chooser should show all applications in a flat list.

setShowDefault
void setShowDefault(bool setting)

Sets whether the app chooser should show the default handler for the content type in a separate section.

setShowFallback
void setShowFallback(bool setting)

From Box

gtkBox
GtkBox* gtkBox;

the main Gtk struct

getBoxStruct
GtkBox* getBoxStruct(bool transferOwnership)

Get the main Gtk struct

getStruct
void* getStruct()

the main Gtk struct as a void*

getType
GType getType()
getBaselinePosition
GtkBaselinePosition getBaselinePosition()

Gets the value set by Box.setBaselinePosition.

getCenterWidget
Widget getCenterWidget()

Retrieves the center widget of the box.

getHomogeneous
bool getHomogeneous()

Returns whether the box is homogeneous (all children are the same size). See Box.setHomogeneous.

getSpacing
int getSpacing()

Gets the value set by Box.setSpacing.

packEnd
void packEnd(Widget child, bool expand, bool fill, uint padding)

Adds child to box, packed with reference to the end of box. The child is packed after (away from end of) any other child packed with reference to the end of box.

packStart
void packStart(Widget child, bool expand, bool fill, uint padding)

Adds child to box, packed with reference to the start of box. The child is packed after any other child packed with reference to the start of box.

queryChildPacking
void queryChildPacking(Widget child, bool expand, bool fill, uint padding, GtkPackType packType)

Obtains information about how child is packed into box.

reorderChild
void reorderChild(Widget child, int position)

Moves child to a new position in the list of box children. The list contains widgets packed GTK_PACK_START as well as widgets packed GTK_PACK_END, in the order that these widgets were added to box.

setBaselinePosition
void setBaselinePosition(GtkBaselinePosition position)

Sets the baseline position of a box. This affects only horizontal boxes with at least one baseline aligned child. If there is more vertical space available than requested, and the baseline is not allocated by the parent then position is used to allocate the baseline wrt the extra space available.

setCenterWidget
void setCenterWidget(Widget widget)

Sets a center widget; that is a child widget that will be centered with respect to the full width of the box, even if the children at either side take up different amounts of space.

setChildPacking
void setChildPacking(Widget child, bool expand, bool fill, uint padding, GtkPackType packType)

Sets the way child is packed into box.

setHomogeneous
void setHomogeneous(bool homogeneous)

Sets the homogeneous property of box, controlling whether or not all children of box are given equal space in the box.

setSpacing
void setSpacing(int spacing)

Sets the spacing property of box, which is the number of pixels to place between children of box.
