SwitchProtocol

public protocol SwitchProtocol : ActionableProtocol, ActivatableProtocol

GtkSwitch is a widget that has two states: on or off. The user can control which state should be active by clicking the empty area, or by dragging the handle.

GtkSwitch can also handle situations where the underlying state changes with a delay. See GtkSwitch::state-set for details.

CSS nodes

(plain Language Example):

switch
╰── slider

GtkSwitch has two css nodes, the main node with the name switch and a subnode named slider. Neither of them is using any style classes.

The SwitchProtocol protocol exposes the methods and properties of an underlying GtkSwitch 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 Switch. Alternatively, use SwitchRef as a lighweight, unowned reference if you already have an instance you just want to use.

  • ptr

    Untyped pointer to the underlying GtkSwitch instance.

    Declaration

    Swift

    var ptr: UnsafeMutableRawPointer! { get }
  • switch_ptr Default implementation

    Typed pointer to the underlying GtkSwitch instance.

    Default Implementation

    Return the stored, untyped pointer as a typed pointer to the GtkSwitch instance.

    Declaration

    Swift

    var switch_ptr: UnsafeMutablePointer<GtkSwitch>! { get }
  • Required Initialiser for types conforming to SwitchProtocol

    Declaration

  • onActivate(flags:handler:) Extension method

    The activate signal on GtkSwitch is an action signal and emitting it causes the switch to animate. Applications should never connect to this signal, but use the notifyactive signal.

    Note

    This represents the underlying activate signal

    Declaration

    Swift

    @discardableResult
    @inlinable
    func onActivate(flags: ConnectFlags = ConnectFlags(0), handler: @escaping (_ unownedSelf: SwitchRef) -> Void) -> Int

    Parameters

    flags

    Flags

    unownedSelf

    Reference to instance of self

    handler

    The signal handler to call Run the given callback whenever the activate signal is emitted

  • activateSignal Extension method

    Typed activate signal for using the connect(signal:) methods

    Declaration

    Swift

    static var activateSignal: SwitchSignalName { get }
  • onStateSet(flags:handler:) Extension method

    The state-set signal on GtkSwitch is emitted to change the underlying state. It is emitted when the user changes the switch position. The default handler keeps the state in sync with the GtkSwitch:active property.

    To implement delayed state change, applications can connect to this signal, initiate the change of the underlying state, and call gtk_switch_set_state() when the underlying state change is complete. The signal handler should return true to prevent the default handler from running.

    Visually, the underlying state is represented by the trough color of the switch, while the GtkSwitch:active property is represented by the position of the switch.

    Note

    This represents the underlying state-set signal

    Declaration

    Swift

    @discardableResult
    @inlinable
    func onStateSet(flags: ConnectFlags = ConnectFlags(0), handler: @escaping (_ unownedSelf: SwitchRef, _ state: Bool) -> Bool) -> Int

    Parameters

    flags

    Flags

    unownedSelf

    Reference to instance of self

    state

    the new state of the switch

    handler

    true to stop the signal emission Run the given callback whenever the stateSet signal is emitted

  • stateSetSignal Extension method

    Typed state-set signal for using the connect(signal:) methods

    Declaration

    Swift

    static var stateSetSignal: SwitchSignalName { get }
  • 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.

    Note

    This represents the underlying notify::active signal

    Declaration

    Swift

    @discardableResult
    @inlinable
    func onNotifyActive(flags: ConnectFlags = ConnectFlags(0), handler: @escaping (_ unownedSelf: SwitchRef, _ pspec: ParamSpecRef) -> Void) -> Int

    Parameters

    flags

    Flags

    unownedSelf

    Reference to instance of self

    pspec

    the GParamSpec of the property which changed.

    handler

    The signal handler to call Run the given callback whenever the notifyActive signal is emitted

  • notifyActiveSignal Extension method

    Typed notify::active signal for using the connect(signal:) methods

    Declaration

    Swift

    static var notifyActiveSignal: SwitchSignalName { get }
