Style Classes

Widgets can add style classes to their context, which can be used to associate different styles by class. The documentation for individual widgets lists which style classes it uses itself, and which style classes may be added by applications to affect their appearance.

GTK+ defines macros for a number of style classes.

Style Regions

Widgets can also add regions with flags to their context. This feature is deprecated and will be removed in a future GTK+ update. Please use style classes instead.

GTK+ defines macros for a number of style regions.

Custom styling in UI libraries and applications

If you are developing a library with custom GtkWidgets that render differently than standard components, you may need to add a GtkStyleProvider yourself with the GTK_STYLE_PROVIDER_PRIORITY_FALLBACK priority, either a GtkCssProvider or a custom object implementing the GtkStyleProvider interface. This way themes may still attempt to style your UI elements in a different way if needed so.

If you are using custom styling on an applications, you probably want then to make your style information prevail to the theme’s, so you must use a GtkStyleProvider with the GTK_STYLE_PROVIDER_PRIORITY_APPLICATION priority, keep in mind that the user settings in XDG_CONFIG_HOME/gtk-3.0/gtk.css will still take precedence over your changes, as it uses the GTK_STYLE_PROVIDER_PRIORITY_USER priority.

gtk_style_context_new ()

GtkStyleContext *
gtk_style_context_new (void);

Creates a standalone GtkStyleContext, this style context won’t be attached to any widget, so you may want to call gtk_style_context_set_path() yourself.

This function is only useful when using the theming layer separated from GTK+, if you are using GtkStyleContext to theme GtkWidgets, use gtk_widget_get_style_context() in order to get a style context ready to theme the widget.

gtk_style_context_add_provider ()

void
gtk_style_context_add_provider (GtkStyleContext *context,
                                GtkStyleProvider *provider,
                                guint priority);

Adds a style provider to context , to be used in style construction. Note that a style provider added by this function only affects the style of the widget to which context belongs. If you want to affect the style of all widgets, use gtk_style_context_add_provider_for_screen().

Note: If both priorities are the same, a GtkStyleProvider added through this function takes precedence over another added through gtk_style_context_add_provider_for_screen().

Since: 3.0

gtk_style_context_add_provider_for_screen ()

void
gtk_style_context_add_provider_for_screen

                                guint priority);

Adds a global style provider to screen , which will be used in style construction for all GtkStyleContexts under screen .

GTK+ uses this to make styling information from GtkSettings available.

Note: If both priorities are the same, A GtkStyleProvider added through gtk_style_context_add_provider() takes precedence over another added through this function.

                                GValue *value);

Gets a style property from context for the given state.

Note that not all CSS properties that are supported by GTK+ can be retrieved in this way, since they may not be representable as GValue. GTK+ defines macros for a number of properties that can be used with this function.

Note that passing a state other than the current state of context is not recommended unless the style context has been saved with gtk_style_context_save().

When value is no longer needed, g_value_unset() must be called to free any allocated memory.

gtk_style_context_get_state (GtkStyleContext *context);

Returns the state used for style matching.

This method should only be used to retrieve the GtkStateFlags to pass to GtkStyleContext methods, like gtk_style_context_get_padding(). If you need to retrieve the current state of a GtkWidget, use gtk_widget_get_state_flags().

gtk_style_context_get_section ()

GtkCssSection *
gtk_style_context_get_section (GtkStyleContext *context,
                               const gchar *property);

Queries the location in the CSS where property was defined for the current context . Note that the state to be queried is taken from gtk_style_context_get_state().

If the location is not available, NULL will be returned. The location might not be available for various reasons, such as the property being overridden, property not naming a supported CSS property or tracking of definitions being disabled for performance reasons.

Shorthand CSS properties cannot be queried for a location and will always return NULL.

gtk_style_context_get_color ()

void
gtk_style_context_get_color (GtkStyleContext *context,

                                GdkRGBA *color);

Gets the background color for a given state.

This function is far less useful than it seems, and it should not be used in newly written code. CSS has no concept of "background color", as a background can be an image, or a gradient, or any other pattern including solid colors.

The only reason why you would call gtk_style_context_get_background_color() is to use the returned value to draw the background with it; the correct way to achieve this result is to use gtk_render_background() instead, along with CSS style classes to modify the color to be rendered.

                                    gdouble *progress);

Returns TRUE if there is a transition animation running for the current region (see gtk_style_context_push_animatable_region()).

If progress is not NULL, the animation progress will be returned there, 0.0 means the state is closest to being unset, while 1.0 means it’s closest to being set. This means transition animation will run from 0 to 1 when state is being set and from 1 to 0 when it’s being unset.

Since: 3.0

gtk_style_context_lookup_color ()

gboolean
gtk_style_context_lookup_color (GtkStyleContext *context,

Looks up stock_id in the icon factories associated to context and the default icon factory, returning an icon set if found, otherwise NULL.

gtk_style_context_notify_state_change ()

void
gtk_style_context_notify_state_change (GtkStyleContext *context,
                                       GdkWindow *window,
                                       gpointer region_id,
                                       GtkStateType state,
                                       gboolean state_value);

Notifies a state change on context , so if the current style makes use of transition animations, one will be started so all rendered elements under region_id are animated for state state being set to value state_value .

The window parameter is used in order to invalidate the rendered area as the animation runs, so make sure it is the same window that is being rendered on by the gtk_render_*() functions.

If region_id is NULL, all rendered elements using context will be affected by this state transition.

As a practical example, a GtkButton notifying a state transition on the prelight state:

1
2
3
4
5

gtk_style_context_notify_state_change (context,
                                       gtk_widget_get_window (widget),
                                       NULL,
                                       GTK_STATE_PRELIGHT,
                                       button->in_button);

Can be handled in the CSS file like this:

1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8

GtkButton {
    background-color: #f00
}

GtkButton:hover {
    background-color: #fff;
    transition: 200ms linear
}

This combination will animate the button background from red to white if a pointer enters the button, and back to red if the pointer leaves the button.

Note that state is used when finding the transition parameters, which is why the style places the transition under the :hover pseudo-class.

gtk_style_context_pop_animatable_region ()

void
gtk_style_context_pop_animatable_region

                                gpointer region_id);

Pushes an animatable region, so all further gtk_render_*() calls between this call and the following gtk_style_context_pop_animatable_region() will potentially show transition animations for this region if gtk_style_context_notify_state_change() is called for a given state, and the current theme/style defines transition animations for state changes.

The region_id used must be unique in context so the themes can uniquely identify rendered elements subject to a state transition.

void
gtk_style_context_cancel_animations (GtkStyleContext *context,
                                     gpointer region_id);

Stops all running animations for region_id and all animatable regions underneath.

A NULL region_id will stop all ongoing animations in context , when dealing with a GtkStyleContext obtained through gtk_widget_get_style_context(), this is normally done for you in all circumstances you would expect all widget to be stopped, so this should be only used in complex widgets with different animatable regions.

Removes provider from the global style providers list in screen .

Since: 3.0

gtk_style_context_reset_widgets ()

void
gtk_style_context_reset_widgets (GdkScreen *screen);

This function recomputes the styles for all widgets under a particular GdkScreen. This is useful when some global parameter has changed that affects the appearance of all widgets, because when a widget gets a new style, it will both redraw and recompute any cached information about its appearance. As an example, it is used when the color scheme changes in the related GtkSettings object.

Sets the sides where rendered elements (mostly through gtk_render_frame()) will visually connect with other visual elements.

This is merely a hint that may or may not be honored by themes.

Container widgets are expected to set junction hints as appropriate for their children, so it should not normally be necessary to call this function manually.

Adds a style class to context , so posterior calls to gtk_style_context_get() or any of the gtk_render_*() functions will make use of this new class for styling.

In the CSS file format, a GtkEntry defining a “search” class, would be matched by:

1

entry.search { ... }

While any widget defining a “search” class would be matched by:

1

.search { ... }

Adds a region to context , so posterior calls to gtk_style_context_get() or any of the gtk_render_*() functions will make use of this new region for styling.

In the CSS file format, a GtkTreeView defining a “row” region, would be matched by:

1

GtkTreeView row { ... }

Pseudo-classes are used for matching flags , so the two following rules:

1
2

GtkTreeView row:nth-child(even) { ... }
GtkTreeView row:nth-child(odd) { ... }

would apply to even and odd rows, respectively.

Region names must only contain lowercase letters and “-”, starting always with a lowercase letter.
