GtkMenuButton implements AtkImplementorIface, GtkBuildable, GtkActionable and GtkActivatable.
"align-widget" GtkContainer* : Read / Write "direction" GtkArrowType : Read / Write "menu" GtkMenu* : Read / Write "menu-model" GMenuModel* : Read / Write "popup" GtkMenu* : Read / Write
The GtkMenuButton widget is used to display a menu when clicked on. This menu can be provided either as a GtkMenu, or an abstract GMenuModel.
The GtkMenuButton widget can hold any valid child widget. That is, it can hold almost any other standard GtkWidget. The most commonly used child is the provided GtkArrow.
The positioning of the menu is determined by the "direction"
property of the menu button and the "halign" or "valign"
properties of the menu. For example, when the direction is GTK_ARROW_DOWN
and the horizontal alignment is GTK_ALIGN_START
, the menu will be
positioned below the button, with the starting edge (depending on the
text direction) of the menu aligned with the starting edge of the button.
If there is not enough space below the button, the menu is popped up above
the button instead. If the alignment would move part of the menu offscreen,
it is 'pushed in'.

GtkWidget * gtk_menu_button_new (void
);
Creates a new GtkMenuButton widget with downwards-pointing arrow as the only child. You can replace the child widget with another GtkWidget should you wish to.
Returns : |
The newly created GtkMenuButton widget. |
Since 3.6
void gtk_menu_button_set_popup (GtkMenuButton *menu_button
,GtkWidget *popup
);
Sets the GtkMenu that will be popped up when the button is clicked,
or NULL
to disable the button. If "menu-model" is set,
it will be set to NULL
.

a GtkMenu. [allow-none] |
Since 3.6
GtkMenu * gtk_menu_button_get_popup (GtkMenuButton *menu_button
);
Returns the GtkMenu that pops out of the button.
|
a GtkMenuButton |
Returns : |
a GtkMenu or NULL . [transfer none]
|
Since 3.6
void gtk_menu_button_set_menu_model (GtkMenuButton *menu_button
,GMenuModel *menu_model
);
Sets the GMenuModel from which the "menu" property will be
filled in, or NULL
to disable the button.
The GtkMenu will be created with gtk_menu_new_from_model()
, so actions
will be connected as documented there.
If you "menu" * is already set, then its content will be lost and replaced by our newly created GtkMenu.

|
a GMenuModel. [allow-none] |
Since 3.6
GMenuModel * gtk_menu_button_get_menu_model (GtkMenuButton *menu_button
);
Returns the GMenuModel used to generate the menu.
|
a GtkMenuButton |
Returns : |
a GMenuModel or NULL . [transfer none]
|
Since 3.6
void gtk_menu_button_set_direction (GtkMenuButton *menu_button
,GtkArrowType direction
);
Sets the direction in which the menu will be popped up, as well as changing the arrow's direction. The child will not be changed to an arrow if it was customized.
If the menu when popped out would have collided with screen edges, we will do our best to keep it inside the screen and fully visible.
If you pass GTK_ARROW_NONE for a direction
, the menu will behave
as if you passed GTK_ARROW_DOWN (although you won't see any arrows).
|
a GtkMenuButton |
|
a GtkArrowType |
Since 3.6
GtkArrowType gtk_menu_button_get_direction (GtkMenuButton *menu_button
);
Returns the direction the menu will be pointing at when popped up.
|
a GtkMenuButton |
Returns : |
a GtkArrowType value. |
Since 3.6
void gtk_menu_button_set_align_widget (GtkMenuButton *menu_button
,GtkWidget *align_widget
);
Sets the GtkWidget to use to line the menu with when popped up. Note that
the align_widget
must contain the GtkMenuButton itself.
Setting it to NULL
means that the popup menu will be aligned with the
button itself.
|
a GtkMenuButton |
|
a GtkWidget. [allow-none] |
Since 3.6
GtkWidget * gtk_menu_button_get_align_widget (GtkMenuButton *menu_button
);
Returns the parent GtkWidget to use to line up with menu.
