struct GtkAccelGroup

struct GtkAccelGroup;

An object representing and maintaining a group of accelerators.

gtk_accel_group_new ()

GtkAccelGroup* gtk_accel_group_new          (void);

Creates a new GtkAccelGroup.

gtk_accel_group_ref

#define	gtk_accel_group_ref	g_object_ref

Deprecated equivalent of g_object_ref().

gtk_accel_group_unref

#define	gtk_accel_group_unref	g_object_unref

Deprecated equivalent of g_object_unref().

gtk_accel_group_connect ()

void        gtk_accel_group_connect         (GtkAccelGroup *accel_group,
                                             guint accel_key,
                                             GdkModifierType accel_mods,
                                             GtkAccelFlags accel_flags,
                                             GClosure *closure);

Installs an accelerator in this group. When accel_group is being activated in response to a call to gtk_accel_groups_activate(), closure will be invoked if the accel_key and accel_mods from gtk_accel_groups_activate() match those of this connection.

The signature used for the closure is that of GtkAccelGroupActivate.

Note that, due to implementation details, a single closure can only be connected to one accelerator group.

gtk_accel_group_connect_by_path ()

void        gtk_accel_group_connect_by_path (GtkAccelGroup *accel_group,
                                             const gchar *accel_path,
                                             GClosure *closure);

Installs an accelerator in this group, using an accelerator path to look up the appropriate key and modifiers (see gtk_accel_map_add_entry()). When accel_group is being activated in response to a call to gtk_accel_groups_activate(), closure will be invoked if the accel_key and accel_mods from gtk_accel_groups_activate() match the key and modifiers for the path.

The signature used for the closure is that of GtkAccelGroupActivate.

GtkAccelGroupActivate ()

gboolean    (*GtkAccelGroupActivate)        (GtkAccelGroup *accel_group,
                                             GObject *acceleratable,
                                             guint keyval,
                                             GdkModifierType modifier);

GtkAccelGroupFindFunc ()

gboolean    (*GtkAccelGroupFindFunc)        (GtkAccelKey *key,
                                             GClosure *closure,
                                             gpointer data);

Since 2.2

gtk_accel_group_disconnect ()

gboolean    gtk_accel_group_disconnect      (GtkAccelGroup *accel_group,
                                             GClosure *closure);

Removes an accelerator previously installed through gtk_accel_group_connect().

gtk_accel_group_disconnect_key ()

gboolean    gtk_accel_group_disconnect_key  (GtkAccelGroup *accel_group,
                                             guint accel_key,
                                             GdkModifierType accel_mods);

Removes an accelerator previously installed through gtk_accel_group_connect().

gtk_accel_group_query ()

GtkAccelGroupEntry* gtk_accel_group_query   (GtkAccelGroup *accel_group,
                                             guint accel_key,
                                             GdkModifierType accel_mods,
                                             guint *n_entries);

Queries an accelerator group for all entries matching accel_key and accel_mods.

gtk_accel_group_lock ()

void        gtk_accel_group_lock            (GtkAccelGroup *accel_group);

Locks the given accelerator group.

Locking an acelerator group prevents the accelerators contained within it to be changed during runtime. Refer to gtk_accel_map_change_entry() about runtime accelerator changes.

If called more than once, accel_group remains locked until gtk_accel_group_unlock() has been called an equivalent number of times.

gtk_accel_group_unlock ()

void        gtk_accel_group_unlock          (GtkAccelGroup *accel_group);

Undoes the last call to gtk_accel_group_lock() on this accel_group.

gtk_accel_group_from_accel_closure ()

GtkAccelGroup* gtk_accel_group_from_accel_closure
                                            (GClosure *closure);

Finds the GtkAccelGroup to which closure is connected; see gtk_accel_group_connect().

gtk_accel_groups_activate ()

gboolean    gtk_accel_groups_activate       (GObject *object,
                                             guint accel_key,
                                             GdkModifierType accel_mods);

Finds the first accelerator in any GtkAccelGroup attached to object that matches accel_key and accel_mods, and activates that accelerator. If an accelerator was activated and handled this keypress, TRUE is returned.

gtk_accel_groups_from_object ()

GSList*     gtk_accel_groups_from_object    (GObject *object);

Gets a list of all accel groups which are attached to object.

gtk_accel_group_find ()

GtkAccelKey* gtk_accel_group_find           (GtkAccelGroup *accel_group,
                                             GtkAccelGroupFindFunc find_func,
                                             gpointer data);

Finds the first entry in an accelerator group for which find_func returns TRUE and returns its GtkAccelKey.

struct GtkAccelKey

struct GtkAccelKey {

  guint           accel_key;
  GdkModifierType accel_mods;
  guint           accel_flags : 16;
};

gtk_accelerator_valid ()

gboolean    gtk_accelerator_valid           (guint keyval,
                                             GdkModifierType modifiers);

Determines whether a given keyval and modifier mask constitute a valid keyboard accelerator. For example, the GDK_a keyval plus GDK_CONTROL_MASK is valid - this is a "Ctrl+a" accelerator. But, you can't, for instance, use the GDK_Control_L keyval as an accelerator.

gtk_accelerator_parse ()

void        gtk_accelerator_parse           (const gchar *accelerator,
                                             guint *accelerator_key,
                                             GdkModifierType *accelerator_mods);

Parses a string representing an accelerator. The format looks like "<Control>a" or "<Shift><Alt>F1" or "<Release>z" (the last one is for key release). The parser is fairly liberal and allows lower or upper case, and also abbreviations such as "<Ctl>" and "<Ctrl>".

If the parse fails, accelerator_key and accelerator_mods will be set to 0 (zero).

gtk_accelerator_name ()

gchar*      gtk_accelerator_name            (guint accelerator_key,
                                             GdkModifierType accelerator_mods);

Converts an accelerator keyval and modifier mask into a string parseable by gtk_accelerator_parse(). For example, if you pass in GDK_q and GDK_CONTROL_MASK, this function returns "<Control>q".

The caller of this function must free the returned string.

gtk_accelerator_set_default_mod_mask ()

void        gtk_accelerator_set_default_mod_mask
                                            (GdkModifierType default_mod_mask);

Sets the modifiers that will be considered significant for keyboard accelerators. The default mod mask is GDK_CONTROL_MASK | GDK_SHIFT_MASK | GDK_MOD1_MASK, that is, Control, Shift, and Alt. Other modifiers will by default be ignored by GtkAccelGroup. You must include at least the three default modifiers in any value you pass to this function.

The default mod mask should be changed on application startup, before using any accelerator groups.

gtk_accelerator_get_default_mod_mask ()

guint       gtk_accelerator_get_default_mod_mask
                                            (void);

Gets the value set by gtk_accelerator_set_default_mod_mask().

The "accel-activate" signal

gboolean    user_function                  (GtkAccelGroup *accelgroup,
                                            GObject *arg1,
                                            guint arg2,
                                            GdkModifierType arg3,
                                            gpointer user_data);

The "accel-changed" signal

void        user_function                  (GtkAccelGroup *accelgroup,
                                            guint arg1,
                                            GdkModifierType arg2,
                                            GClosure *arg3,
                                            gpointer user_data);
