Detailed Description

Base class for layout manager.

Layout managers are delegate classes that handle the preferred size and the allocation of a container widget.

You typically subclass Gtk::LayoutManager if you want to implement a layout policy for the children of a widget, or if you want to determine the size of a widget depending on its contents.

Each Gtk::Widget can only have one Gtk::LayoutManager instance associated to it at any given time; it is possible, though, to replace the layout manager instance using Gtk::Widget::set_layout_manager().

Layout properties

A layout manager can expose properties for controlling the layout of each child, by creating an object type derived from Gtk::LayoutChild and installing the properties on it as normal GObject properties.

Each Gtk::LayoutChild instance storing the layout properties for a specific child is created through the get_layout_child() method; a Gtk::LayoutManager controls the creation of its Gtk::LayoutChild instances by overriding the create_layout_child_vfunc() virtual function.

Gtk::LayoutChild::property_layout_manager() and Gtk::LayoutChild::property_child_widget() on the newly created Gtk::LayoutChild instance are mandatory. The Gtk::LayoutManager will cache the newly created Gtk::LayoutChild instance until the widget is removed from its parent, or the parent removes the layout manager.

Each Gtk::LayoutManager instance creating a Gtk::LayoutChild should use get_layout_child() every time it needs to query the layout properties; each Gtk::LayoutChild instance should call layout_changed() every time a property is updated, in order to queue a new size measuring and allocation.

Since gtkmm 3.96:

Parameters

widget	The `Gtk::Widget` using manager.
width	The new width of the widget.
height	The new height of the widget.
baseline	The baseline position of the widget, or -1.

◆ get_layout_child() [1/2]

Glib::RefPtr< LayoutChild > Gtk::LayoutManager::get_layout_child ( Widget & child )

Retrieves a Gtk::LayoutChild instance for the Gtk::LayoutManager, creating one if necessary.

The child widget must be a child of the widget using manager.

The Gtk::LayoutChild instance is owned by the Gtk::LayoutManager, and is guaranteed to exist as long as child is a child of the Gtk::Widget using the given Gtk::LayoutManager.

Parameters

child A Gtk::Widget.

Returns: A Gtk::LayoutChild.

◆ get_layout_child() [2/2]

Glib::RefPtr< const LayoutChild > Gtk::LayoutManager::get_layout_child ( Widget & child ) const

Retrieves a Gtk::LayoutChild instance for the Gtk::LayoutManager, creating one if necessary.

The child widget must be a child of the widget using manager.

The Gtk::LayoutChild instance is owned by the Gtk::LayoutManager, and is guaranteed to exist as long as child is a child of the Gtk::Widget using the given Gtk::LayoutManager.

Parameters

child A Gtk::Widget.

Returns: A Gtk::LayoutChild.

◆ get_request_mode()

SizeRequestMode Gtk::LayoutManager::get_request_mode ( ) const

Retrieves the request mode of manager.

Measures the size of the widget using manager, for the given orientation and size.

See the Gtk::Widget documentation on layout management for more details.

Parameters

widget	The `Gtk::Widget` using manager.
orientation	The orientation to measure.
for_size	Size for the opposite of orientation; for instance, if the orientation is Gtk::Orientation::HORIZONTAL, this is the height of the widget; if the orientation is Gtk::Orientation::VERTICAL, this is the width of the widget. This allows to measure the height for the given width, and the width for the given height. Use -1 if the size is not known.
minimum	The minimum size for the given size and orientation.
natural	The natural, or preferred size for the given size and orientation.
minimum_baseline	The baseline position for the minimum size.
natural_baseline	The baseline position for the natural size.

◆ wrap()

Glib::RefPtr< Gtk::LayoutManager > wrap	(	GtkLayoutManager *	object,
		bool	take_copy = `false`
	)

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

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.

Returns: A C++ instance that wraps this C instance.
