ButtonProtocol

public protocol ButtonProtocol : ActionableProtocol, ActivatableProtocol, BinProtocol

The GtkButton widget is generally used to trigger a callback function that is called when the button is pressed. The various signals and how to use them are outlined below.

The GtkButton widget can hold any valid child widget. That is, it can hold almost any other standard GtkWidget. The most commonly used child is the GtkLabel.

CSS nodes

GtkButton has a single CSS node with name button. The node will get the style classes .image-button or .text-button, if the content is just an image or label, respectively. It may also receive the .flat style class.

Other style classes that are commonly used with GtkButton include .suggested-action and .destructive-action. In special cases, buttons can be made round by adding the .circular style class.

Button-like widgets like GtkToggleButton, GtkMenuButton, GtkVolumeButton, GtkLockButton, GtkColorButton, GtkFontButton or GtkFileChooserButton use style classes such as .toggle, .popup, .scale, .lock, .color, .font, .file to differentiate themselves from a plain GtkButton.

The ButtonProtocol protocol exposes the methods and properties of an underlying GtkButton instance. The default implementation of these can be found in the protocol extension below. For a concrete class that implements these methods and properties, see Button. Alternatively, use ButtonRef as a lighweight, unowned reference if you already have an instance you just want to use.

  • The notify signal is emitted on an object when one of its properties has its value set through g_object_set_property(), g_object_set(), et al.

    Note that getting this signal doesn’t itself guarantee that the value of the property has actually changed. When it is emitted is determined by the derived GObject class. If the implementor did not create the property with G_PARAM_EXPLICIT_NOTIFY, then any call to g_object_set_property() results in notify being emitted, even if the new value is the same as the old. If they did pass G_PARAM_EXPLICIT_NOTIFY, then this signal is emitted only when they explicitly call g_object_notify() or g_object_notify_by_pspec(), and common practice is to do that only when the value has actually changed.

    This signal is typically used to obtain change notification for a single property, by specifying the property name as a detail in the g_signal_connect() call, like this:

    (C Language Example):

    g_signal_connect (text_view->buffer, "notify::paste-target-list",
                      G_CALLBACK (gtk_text_view_target_list_notify),
                      text_view)
    

    It is important to note that you must use canonical parameter names as detail strings for the notify signal.
