Class

AdwTabView

Description [src]

final class Adw.TabView : Gtk.Widget
  implements Gtk.Accessible, Gtk.Buildable, Gtk.ConstraintTarget {
  /* No available fields */
}

A dynamic tabbed container.

AdwTabView is a container which shows one child at a time. While it provides keyboard shortcuts for switching between pages, it does not provide a visible tab switcher and relies on external widgets for that, such as AdwTabBar, AdwTabOverview and AdwTabButton.

AdwTabView maintains a AdwTabPage object for each page, which holds additional per-page properties. You can obtain the AdwTabPage for a page with adw_tab_view_get_page(), and as the return value for adw_tab_view_append() and other functions for adding children.

AdwTabView only aims to be useful for dynamic tabs in multi-window document-based applications, such as web browsers, file managers, text editors or terminals. It does not aim to replace GtkNotebook for use cases such as tabbed dialogs.

As such, it does not support disabling page reordering or detaching.

AdwTabView adds a number of global page switching and reordering shortcuts. The AdwTabView:shortcuts property can be used to manage them.

See AdwTabViewShortcuts for the list of the available shortcuts. All of the shortcuts are enabled by default.

adw_tab_view_add_shortcuts() and adw_tab_view_remove_shortcuts() can be used to manage shortcuts in a convenient way, for example:

adw_tab_view_remove_shortcuts (view, ADW_TAB_VIEW_SHORTCUT_CONTROL_HOME |
                                     ADW_TAB_VIEW_SHORTCUT_CONTROL_END);

CSS nodes

AdwTabView has a main CSS node with the name tabview.

Accessibility

AdwTabView uses the GTK_ACCESSIBLE_ROLE_TAB_PANEL for the tab pages which are the accessible parent objects of the child widgets.
