ShortcutsWindowProtocol

public protocol ShortcutsWindowProtocol : WindowProtocol

A GtkShortcutsWindow shows information about the keyboard shortcuts and gestures of an application.

The shortcuts can be grouped, and you can have multiple sections in this window, corresponding to the major modes of your application.

Additionally, the shortcuts can be filtered by the current view, to avoid showing information that is not relevant in the current application context.

The recommended way to construct a GtkShortcutsWindow is with [classGtk.Builder], by populating a GtkShortcutsWindow with one or more GtkShortcutsSection objects, which contain GtkShortcutsGroups that in turn contain objects of class GtkShortcutsShortcut.

A simple example:

This example has as single section. As you can see, the shortcut groups are arranged in columns, and spread across several pages if there are too many to find on a single page.

The .ui file for this example can be found here.

An example with multiple views:

This example shows a GtkShortcutsWindow that has been configured to show only the shortcuts relevant to the “stopwatch” view.

The .ui file for this example can be found here.

An example with multiple sections:

This example shows a GtkShortcutsWindow with two sections, “Editor Shortcuts” and “Terminal Shortcuts”.

The .ui file for this example can be found here.

The ShortcutsWindowProtocol protocol exposes the methods and properties of an underlying GtkShortcutsWindow 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 ShortcutsWindow. Alternatively, use ShortcutsWindowRef 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.

    Note

    This represents the underlying notify::section-name signal

    Declaration

    @discardableResult
@inlinable

    flags

    Flags
    unownedSelf

    Reference to instance of self
    pspec
