The "activate-proposal" signal

void                user_function                      (GtkSourceCompletion *completion,
                                                        gpointer             user_data)       : Action

The ::activate-proposal signal is a keybinding signal which gets emitted when the user initiates a proposal activation.

Applications should not connect to it, but may emit it with g_signal_emit_by_name if they need to control the proposal activation programmatically.

The "hide" signal

void                user_function                      (GtkSourceCompletion *completion,
                                                        gpointer             user_data)       : Action

Emitted when the completion window is hidden. The default handler will actually hide the window.

The "move-cursor" signal

void                user_function                      (GtkSourceCompletion *completion,
                                                        GtkScrollStep        step,
                                                        gint                 num,

The ::move-cursor signal is a keybinding signal which gets emitted when the user initiates a cursor movement.

The Up, Down, PageUp, PageDown, Home and End keys are bound to the normal behavior expected by those keys. The PageDown and PageUp keys use the page size defined by the "proposal-page-size" property.

Applications should not connect to it, but may emit it with g_signal_emit_by_name if they need to control the cursor programmatically.

The "move-page" signal

void                user_function                      (GtkSourceCompletion *completion,
                                                        GtkScrollStep        step,
                                                        gint                 num,
                                                        gpointer             user_data)       : Action

The ::move-page signal is a keybinding signal which gets emitted when the user initiates a page movement (i.e. switches between provider pages).

Control+Left is for going to the previous provider. Control+Right is for going to the next provider. Control+Home is for displaying all the providers. Control+End is for going to the last provider.

Applications should not connect to it, but may emit it with g_signal_emit_by_name if they need to control the page selection programmatically.

The "populate-context" signal

void                user_function                      (GtkSourceCompletion        *completion,
                                                        GtkSourceCompletionContext *context,
                                                        gpointer                    user_data)       : Action

Emitted just before starting to populate the completion with providers. You can use this signal to add additional attributes in the context.

The "show" signal

void                user_function                      (GtkSourceCompletion *completion,
                                                        gpointer             user_data)       : Action

Emitted when the completion window is shown. The default handler will actually show the window.
