Description

Details

gimp_radio_group_new ()

GtkWidget*  gimp_radio_group_new            (gboolean in_frame,

Convenience function to create a group of radio buttons embedded into a GtkFrame or GtkVbox.

in_frame : TRUE if you want a GtkFrame around the radio button group.
frame_title : The title of the Frame or NULL if you don't want a title.
... : A NULL-terminated va_list describing the radio buttons.
Returns : A GtkFrame or GtkVbox (depending on in_frame).

gimp_radio_group_new2 ()

                                             const gchar *frame_title,
                                             GCallback radio_button_callback,
                                             gpointer radio_button_callback_data,
                                             gpointer initial,
                                             ...);

Convenience function to create a group of radio buttons embedded into a GtkFrame or GtkVbox.

in_frame : TRUE if you want a GtkFrame around the radio button group.
frame_title : The title of the Frame or NULL if you don't want a title.
radio_button_callback : The callback each button's "toggled" signal will be connected with.
radio_button_callback_data : The data which will be passed to g_signal_connect().
initial : The item_data of the initially pressed radio button.
... : A NULL-terminated va_list describing the radio buttons.
Returns : A GtkFrame or GtkVbox (depending on in_frame).

gimp_radio_group_set_active ()

void        gimp_radio_group_set_active     (GtkRadioButton *radio_button,
                                             gpointer item_data);

Calls gtk_toggle_button_set_active() with the radio button that was created with a matching item_data.

radio_button : Pointer to a GtkRadioButton.
item_data : The item_data of the radio button you want to select.

gimp_int_radio_group_new ()

GtkWidget*  gimp_int_radio_group_new        (gboolean in_frame,
                                             const gchar *frame_title,
                                             GCallback radio_button_callback,
                                             gpointer radio_button_callback_data,
                                             gint initial,
                                             ...);

Convenience function to create a group of radio buttons embedded into a GtkFrame or GtkVbox. This function does the same thing as gimp_radio_group_new2(), but it takes integers as item_data instead of pointers, since that is a very common case (mapping an enum to a radio group).

in_frame : TRUE if you want a GtkFrame around the radio button group.
frame_title : The title of the Frame or NULL if you don't want a title.
radio_button_callback : The callback each button's "toggled" signal will be connected with.
radio_button_callback_data : The data which will be passed to g_signal_connect().
initial : The item_data of the initially pressed radio button.
... : A NULL-terminated va_list describing the radio buttons.
Returns : A GtkFrame or GtkVbox (depending on in_frame).

gimp_int_radio_group_set_active ()

void        gimp_int_radio_group_set_active (GtkRadioButton *radio_button,
                                             gint item_data);

Calls gtk_toggle_button_set_active() with the radio button that was created with a matching item_data. This function does the same thing as gimp_radio_group_set_active(), but takes integers as item_data instead of pointers.

radio_button : Pointer to a GtkRadioButton.
item_data : The item_data of the radio button you want to select.

gimp_spin_button_new ()

GtkWidget*  gimp_spin_button_new            (GtkObject **adjustment,
                                             gdouble value,
                                             gdouble lower,
                                             gdouble upper,
                                             gdouble step_increment,
                                             gdouble page_increment,
                                             gdouble page_size,
                                             gdouble climb_rate,
                                             guint digits);

This function is a shortcut for gtk_adjustment_new() and a subsequent gtk_spin_button_new() and does some more initialisation stuff like setting a standard minimum horizontal size.

adjustment : Returns the spinbutton's GtkAdjustment.
value : The initial value of the spinbutton.
lower : The lower boundary.
upper : The uppper boundary.
step_increment : The spinbutton's step increment.
page_increment : The spinbutton's page increment (mouse button 2).
page_size : The spinbutton's page size.
climb_rate : The spinbutton's climb rate.
digits : The spinbutton's number of decimal digits.
Returns : A GtkSpinbutton and it's GtkAdjustment.

GIMP_SCALE_ENTRY_LABEL()

#define     GIMP_SCALE_ENTRY_LABEL(adj)

Returns the scale_entry's GtkLabel.

adj : The GtkAdjustment returned by gimp_scale_entry_new().

GIMP_SCALE_ENTRY_SCALE()

#define     GIMP_SCALE_ENTRY_SCALE(adj)

Sets Pango attributes on a GtkLabel in a more convenient way than gtk_label_set_attributes().

This function is useful if you want to change the font attributes of a GtkLabel. This is an alternative to using PangoMarkup which is slow to parse and akward to handle in an i18n-friendly way.

The attributes are set on the complete label, from start to end. If you need to set attributes on part of the label, you will have to use the PangoAttributes API directly.

label : a GtkLabel
... : a list of PangoAttrType and value pairs terminated by -1.
