Implemented Interfaces

HdyViewSwitcher implements AtkImplementorIface, GtkBuildable and GtkOrientable.

Description

An adaptive view switcher, designed to switch between multiple views in a similar fashion than a GtkStackSwitcher.

Depending on the available width, the view switcher can adapt from a wide mode showing the view's icon and title side by side, to a narrow mode showing the view's icon and title one on top of the other, in a more compact way. This can be controlled via the policy property.

To look good in a header bar, an HdyViewSwitcher requires to fill its full height. Contrary to GtkHeaderBar, HdyHeaderBar doesn't force a vertical alignment on its title widget, so we recommend it over GtkHeaderBar.

Property Details

The “icon-size” property

  “icon-size”                gint

Use the "icon-size" property to hint the icons to use, you almost certainly want to leave this as GTK_ICON_SIZE_BUTTON.

Flags: Read / Write

Allowed values: >= 0

Default value: 4

Since: 0.0.10

The “narrow-ellipsize” property

  “narrow-ellipsize”         PangoEllipsizeMode

The preferred place to ellipsize the string, if the narrow mode label does not have enough room to display the entire string, specified as a PangoEllipsizeMode.

Note that setting this property to a value other than PANGO_ELLIPSIZE_NONE has the side-effect that the label requests only enough space to display the ellipsis.

Flags: Read / Write

Default value: PANGO_ELLIPSIZE_NONE

Since: 0.0.10

The “policy” property

  “policy”                   HdyViewSwitcherPolicy

The HdyViewSwitcherPolicy the view switcher should use to determine which mode to use.

Flags: Read / Write

Default value: HDY_VIEW_SWITCHER_POLICY_AUTO

Since: 0.0.10

The “stack” property

  “stack”                    GtkStack *

The GtkStack the view switcher controls.

Flags: Read / Write

Since: 0.0.10
