Detailed Description

This manages a set of variants of a particular icon An IconSet contains variants for different sizes and widget states.

Icons in an icon factory are named by a stock ID, which is a simple string identifying the icon. Each GtkStyle has a list of GtkIconFactory derived from the current theme; those icon factories are consulted first when searching for an icon. If the theme doesn't set a particular icon, GTK+ looks for the icon in a list of default icon factories, maintained by gtk_icon_factory_add_default() and gtk_icon_factory_remove_default(). Applications with icons should add a default icon factory with their icons, which will allow themes to override the icons for the application.

Member Function Documentation

void Gtk::IconSet::add_source ( const IconSource source)

Icon sets have a list of Gtk::IconSource, which they use as base icons for rendering icons in different states and sizes.

Icons are scaled, made to look insensitive, etc. in render_icon(), but Gtk::IconSet needs base images to work with. The base images and when to use them are described by a Gtk::IconSource.

This function copies source, so you can reuse the same source immediately without affecting the icon set.

An example of when you'd use this function: a web browser's "Back to Previous Page" icon might point in a different direction in Hebrew and in English; it might look different when insensitive; and it might change size depending on toolbar mode (small/large icons). So a single icon set would contain all those variants of the icon, and you might add a separate source for each one.

You should nearly always add a "default" icon source with all fields wildcarded, which will be used as a fallback if no more specific source matches. Gtk::IconSet always prefers more specific icon sources to more generic icon sources. The order in which you add the sources to the icon set does not matter.

new_from_pixbuf() creates a new icon set with a default icon source based on the given pixbuf.

Parameters:
sourceA Gtk::IconSource.
IconSet Gtk::IconSet::copy ( ) const

Copies icon_set by value.

Returns:
A new Gtk::IconSet identical to the first.
Glib::ArrayHandle<IconSize> Gtk::IconSet::get_sizes ( ) const
const GtkIconSet* Gtk::IconSet::gobj ( ) const [inline]

Provides access to the underlying C instance.

GtkIconSet* Gtk::IconSet::gobj ( ) [inline]

Provides access to the underlying C instance.

GtkIconSet* Gtk::IconSet::gobj_copy ( ) const

Provides access to the underlying C instance. The caller is responsible for freeing it. Use when directly setting fields in structs.

static IconSet Gtk::IconSet::lookup_default ( const Gtk::StockID stock_id) [static]

Looks for an icon in the list of default icon factories.

Parameters:
stock_idStockID to search for

For display to the user, you should use Style::lookup_icon_set() on the Style for the widget that will display the icon, instead of using this function directly, so that themes are taken into account

Returns:
an IconSet
IconSet& Gtk::IconSet::operator= ( const IconSet other)
Glib::RefPtr<Gdk::Pixbuf> Gtk::IconSet::render_icon ( const Glib::RefPtr< Style >&  style,
TextDirection  direction,
Gtk::StateType  state,
IconSize  size,
Widget widget,
const Glib::ustring detail 
)

Renders an icon using Gtk::Style::render_icon().

In most cases, Gtk::Widget::render_icon() is better, since it automatically provides most of the arguments from the current widget settings. This function never returns 0; if the icon can't be rendered (perhaps because an image file fails to load), a default "missing image" icon will be returned instead.

Parameters:
styleA Gtk::Style associated with widget, or 0.
directionText direction.
stateWidget state.
sizeIcon size. A size of (GtkIconSize)-1 means render at the size of the source and don't scale.
widgetWidget that will display the icon, or 0. The only use that is typically made of this is to determine the appropriate Gdk::Screen.
detailDetail to pass to the theme engine, or 0. Note that passing a detail of anything but 0 will disable caching.
Returns:
A Gdk::Pixbuf to be displayed.
void Gtk::IconSet::swap ( IconSet other)

) [related]
Parameters:
lhsThe left-hand side

Gtk::IconSet wrap ( GtkIconSet *  object,
bool  take_copy = false 
) [related]

A Glib::wrap() method for this object.

Parameters:
objectThe C instance.
take_copyFalse if the result should take ownership of the C instance. True if it should take a new copy or ref.
Returns:
A C++ instance that wraps this C instance.
