ToggleButtonRef

public struct ToggleButtonRef : ToggleButtonProtocol, GWeakCapturing

A GtkToggleButton is a GtkButton which will remain “pressed-in” when clicked. Clicking again will cause the toggle button to return to its normal state.

A toggle button is created by calling either gtk_toggle_button_new() or gtk_toggle_button_new_with_label(). If using the former, it is advisable to pack a widget, (such as a GtkLabel and/or a GtkImage), into the toggle button’s container. (See GtkButton for more information).

The state of a GtkToggleButton can be set specifically using gtk_toggle_button_set_active(), and retrieved using gtk_toggle_button_get_active().

To simply switch the state of a toggle button, use gtk_toggle_button_toggled().

CSS nodes

GtkToggleButton has a single CSS node with name button. To differentiate it from a plain GtkButton, it gets the .toggle style class.

Creating two GtkToggleButton widgets.

(C Language Example):

static void output_state (GtkToggleButton *source, gpointer user_data) {
  printf ("Active: %d\n", gtk_toggle_button_get_active (source));
}

void make_toggles (void) {
  GtkWidget *window, *toggle1, *toggle2;
  GtkWidget *box;
  const char *text;

  window = gtk_window_new (GTK_WINDOW_TOPLEVEL);
  box = gtk_box_new (GTK_ORIENTATION_VERTICAL, 12);

  text = "Hi, I’m a toggle button.";
  toggle1 = gtk_toggle_button_new_with_label (text);

  // Makes this toggle button invisible
  gtk_toggle_button_set_mode (GTK_TOGGLE_BUTTON (toggle1),
                              TRUE);

  g_signal_connect (toggle1, "toggled",
                    G_CALLBACK (output_state),
                    NULL);
  gtk_container_add (GTK_CONTAINER (box), toggle1);

  text = "Hi, I’m a toggle button.";
  toggle2 = gtk_toggle_button_new_with_label (text);
  gtk_toggle_button_set_mode (GTK_TOGGLE_BUTTON (toggle2),
                              FALSE);
  g_signal_connect (toggle2, "toggled",
                    G_CALLBACK (output_state),
                    NULL);
  gtk_container_add (GTK_CONTAINER (box), toggle2);

  gtk_container_add (GTK_CONTAINER (window), box);
  gtk_widget_show_all (window);
}

The ToggleButtonRef type acts as a lightweight Swift reference to an underlying GtkToggleButton instance. It exposes methods that can operate on this data type through ToggleButtonProtocol conformance. Use ToggleButtonRef only as an unowned reference to an existing GtkToggleButton instance.

  • ptr
    Untyped pointer to the underlying `GtkToggleButton` instance.
    

    For type-safe access, use the generated, typed pointer toggle_button_ptr property instead.

    Declaration

    Swift

    public let ptr: UnsafeMutableRawPointer!

ToggleButton Class

  • Designated initialiser from the underlying C data type

    Declaration

    Swift

    @inlinable
    init(_ p: UnsafeMutablePointer<GtkToggleButton>)
  • Designated initialiser from a constant pointer to the underlying C data type

    Declaration

    Swift

    @inlinable
    init(_ p: UnsafePointer<GtkToggleButton>)
  • Conditional initialiser from an optional pointer to the underlying C data type

    Declaration

    Swift

    @inlinable
    init!(_ maybePointer: UnsafeMutablePointer<GtkToggleButton>?)
  • Conditional initialiser from an optional, non-mutable pointer to the underlying C data type

    Declaration

    Swift

    @inlinable
    init!(_ maybePointer: UnsafePointer<GtkToggleButton>?)
  • Conditional initialiser from an optional gpointer

    Declaration

    Swift

    @inlinable
    init!(gpointer g: gpointer?)
  • Conditional initialiser from an optional, non-mutable gconstpointer

    Declaration

    Swift

    @inlinable
    init!(gconstpointer g: gconstpointer?)
  • Reference intialiser for a related type that implements ToggleButtonProtocol

    Declaration

    Swift

    @inlinable
    init<T>(_ other: T) where T : ToggleButtonProtocol
  • This factory is syntactic sugar for setting weak pointers wrapped in GWeak<T>

    Declaration

    Swift

    @inlinable
    static func unowned<T>(_ other: T) -> ToggleButtonRef where T : ToggleButtonProtocol
  • Unsafe typed initialiser. Do not use unless you know the underlying data type the pointer points to conforms to ToggleButtonProtocol.

    Declaration

    Swift

    @inlinable
    init<T>(cPointer: UnsafeMutablePointer<T>)
  • Unsafe typed initialiser. Do not use unless you know the underlying data type the pointer points to conforms to ToggleButtonProtocol.

    Declaration

    Swift

    @inlinable
    init<T>(constPointer: UnsafePointer<T>)
  • Unsafe untyped initialiser. Do not use unless you know the underlying data type the pointer points to conforms to ToggleButtonProtocol.

    Declaration

    Swift

    @inlinable
    init(mutating raw: UnsafeRawPointer)
  • Unsafe untyped initialiser. Do not use unless you know the underlying data type the pointer points to conforms to ToggleButtonProtocol.

    Declaration

    Swift

    @inlinable
    init(raw: UnsafeMutableRawPointer)
  • Unsafe untyped initialiser. Do not use unless you know the underlying data type the pointer points to conforms to ToggleButtonProtocol.

    Declaration

    Swift

    @inlinable
    init(opaquePointer: OpaquePointer)
  • Creates a new toggle button. A widget should be packed into the button, as in gtk_button_new().

    Declaration

    Swift

    @inlinable
    init()
  • Creates a new toggle button with a text label.

    Declaration

    Swift

    @inlinable
    init(label: UnsafePointer<gchar>!)
  • Creates a new GtkToggleButton containing a label. The label will be created using gtk_label_new_with_mnemonic(), so underscores in label indicate the mnemonic for the button.

    Declaration

    Swift

    @inlinable
    init(mnemonic label: UnsafePointer<gchar>!)
  • Creates a new toggle button with a text label.

    Declaration

    Swift

    @inlinable
    static func toggleButtonNewWith(label: UnsafePointer<gchar>!) -> WidgetRef!
  • Creates a new GtkToggleButton containing a label. The label will be created using gtk_label_new_with_mnemonic(), so underscores in label indicate the mnemonic for the button.

    Declaration

    Swift

    @inlinable
    static func toggleButtonNewWith(mnemonic label: UnsafePointer<gchar>!) -> WidgetRef!
