Detailed Description
A menu item that maintains the state of a boolean value in addition to a Gtk::MenuItem's usual role in activating application code.
A check box indicating the state of the boolean value is displayed at the left side of the Gtk::MenuItem. Activating the Gtk::MenuItem toggles the value.

Member Function Documentation
| virtual void Gtk::CheckMenuItem::draw_indicator_vfunc | ( | GdkRectangle * | area | ) | [protected, virtual] |
Triggered when the item is redrawn (e.g.after being toggled) Overload this signal if you want to implement your own check item look.
Otherwise, you most likely don't care about it. The GdkRectangle specifies the area of the widget which will get redrawn.
| bool Gtk::CheckMenuItem::get_active | ( | ) | const |
Returns whether the check menu item is active.
See set_active().
- Returns:
trueif the menu item is checked.
| bool Gtk::CheckMenuItem::get_draw_as_radio | ( | ) | const |
Returns whether check_menu_item looks like a Gtk::RadioMenuItem.
- Returns:
- Whether check_menu_item looks like a Gtk::RadioMenuItem.
| bool Gtk::CheckMenuItem::get_inconsistent | ( | ) | const |
Retrieves the value set by set_inconsistent().
- Returns:
trueif inconsistent.

| virtual void Gtk::CheckMenuItem::on_toggled | ( | ) | [protected, virtual] |
| Glib::PropertyProxy_ReadOnly<bool> Gtk::CheckMenuItem::property_active | ( | ) | const |
Whether the menu item is checked.
You rarely need to use properties because there are get_ and set_ methods for almost all of them.
- Returns:
- A PropertyProxy that allows you to get or set the property of the value, or receive notification when the value of the property changes.
| Glib::PropertyProxy<bool> Gtk::CheckMenuItem::property_active | ( | ) |
Whether the menu item is checked.
You rarely need to use properties because there are get_ and set_ methods for almost all of them.
- Returns:
- A PropertyProxy that allows you to get or set the property of the value, or receive notification when the value of the property changes.
| Glib::PropertyProxy_ReadOnly<bool> Gtk::CheckMenuItem::property_draw_as_radio | ( | ) | const |
Whether the menu item looks like a radio menu item.
You rarely need to use properties because there are get_ and set_ methods for almost all of them.
- Returns:
- A PropertyProxy that allows you to get or set the property of the value, or receive notification when the value of the property changes.
| Glib::PropertyProxy<bool> Gtk::CheckMenuItem::property_draw_as_radio | ( | ) |
Whether the menu item looks like a radio menu item.

- Returns:
- A PropertyProxy that allows you to get or set the property of the value, or receive notification when the value of the property changes.
| Glib::PropertyProxy_ReadOnly<bool> Gtk::CheckMenuItem::property_inconsistent | ( | ) | const |
Whether to display an 'inconsistent' state.
You rarely need to use properties because there are get_ and set_ methods for almost all of them.
- Returns:
- A PropertyProxy that allows you to get or set the property of the value, or receive notification when the value of the property changes.
| Glib::PropertyProxy<bool> Gtk::CheckMenuItem::property_inconsistent | ( | ) |
Whether to display an 'inconsistent' state.
You rarely need to use properties because there are get_ and set_ methods for almost all of them.
- Returns:
- A PropertyProxy that allows you to get or set the property of the value, or receive notification when the value of the property changes.
| void Gtk::CheckMenuItem::set_active | ( | bool | state = true |
) |
| void Gtk::CheckMenuItem::set_draw_as_radio | ( | bool | draw_as_radio = true |
) |
Sets whether check_menu_item is drawn like a Gtk::RadioMenuItem.
- Parameters:
-
draw_as_radio Whether check_menu_item is drawn like a Gtk::RadioMenuItem.
| void Gtk::CheckMenuItem::set_inconsistent | ( | bool | setting = true |
) |
If the user has selected a range of elements (such as some text or spreadsheet cells) that are affected by a boolean setting, and the current values in that range are inconsistent, you may want to display the check in an "in between" state.
This function turns on "in between" display. Normally you would turn off the inconsistent state again if the user explicitly selects a setting. This has to be done manually, set_inconsistent() only affects visual appearance, it doesn't affect the semantics of the widget.
- Parameters:
-
setting trueto display an "inconsistent" third state check.
| Glib::SignalProxy0< void > Gtk::CheckMenuItem::signal_toggled | ( | ) |
Triggered when the item changes state (Note : changing the item's state with set_active() will also trigger this signal).
- Prototype:
void on_my_toggled()
| void Gtk::CheckMenuItem::toggled | ( | ) |

- Parameters:
-
object The C instance. take_copy False if the result should take ownership of the C instance. True if it should take a new copy or ref.
