class Gtk::MenuButton

Overview

The Gtk::MenuButton widget is used to display a popup when clicked.

An example Gtk::MenuButton

This popup can be provided either as a Gtk::Popover or as an abstract GMenuModel.

The Gtk::MenuButton widget can show either an icon (set with the [property@Gtk.MenuButton:icon-name] property) or a label (set with the Gtk::MenuButton#label property). If neither is explicitly set, a Gtk::Image is automatically created, using an arrow image oriented according to Gtk::MenuButton#direction or the generic “open-menu-symbolic” icon if the direction is not set.

The positioning of the popup is determined by the Gtk::MenuButton#direction property of the menu button.

For menus, the Gtk::Widget#halign and Gtk::Widget#valign properties of the menu are also taken into account. For example, when the direction is %GTK_ARROW_DOWN and the horizontal alignment is %GTK_ALIGN_START, the menu will be positioned below the button, with the starting edge (depending on the text direction) of the menu aligned with the starting edge of the button. If there is not enough space below the button, the menu is popped up above the button instead. If the alignment would move part of the menu offscreen, it is “pushed in”.

CSS nodes

menubutton
╰── button.toggle
╰── < content >
  ╰── [arrow]

Gtk::MenuButton has a single CSS node with name menubutton which contains a button node with a .toggle style class.

If the button contains an icon, it will have the .image-button style class, if it contains text, it will have .text-button style class. If an arrow is visible in addition to an icon, text or a custom child, it will also have .arrow-button style class.

Inside the toggle button content, there is an arrow node for the indicator, which will carry one of the .none, .up, .down, .left or .right style classes to indicate the direction that the menu will appear in. The CSS is expected to provide a suitable image for each of these cases using the -gtk-icon-source property.

Optionally, the menubutton node can carry the .circular style class to request a round appearance.

Accessibility

Gtk::MenuButton uses the %GTK_ACCESSIBLE_ROLE_BUTTON role.

def ==(other : self) #
Description copied from class Reference

Returns true if this reference is the same as other. Invokes same?.


def activate_signal #

[View source]
def always_show_arrow : Bool #

Gets whether to show a dropdown arrow even when using an icon.


[View source]
def always_show_arrow=(always_show_arrow : Bool) : Nil #

Sets whether to show a dropdown arrow even when using an icon or a custom child.


[View source]
def always_show_arrow? : Bool #

[View source]
def child : Gtk::Widget | Nil #

Gets the child widget of menu_button.


[View source]
def child=(child : Gtk::Widget | Nil) : Nil #

Sets the child widget of menu_button.

Setting a child resets Gtk::MenuButton#label and [property@Gtk.MenuButton:icon-name].

If [property@Gtk.MenuButton:always-show-arrow] is set to TRUE and Gtk::MenuButton#direction is not GTK_ARROW_NONE, a dropdown arrow will be shown next to the child.


[View source]
def create_popup_func=(func : Gtk::MenuButtonCreatePopupFunc | Nil) : Nil #

Sets func to be called when a popup is about to be shown. func should use one of

to set a popup for menu_button. If func is non-nil, menu_button will always be sensitive.

Using this function will not reset the menu widget attached to menu_button. Instead, this can be done manually in func.


[View source]
def direction : Gtk::ArrowType #

Returns the direction the popup will be pointing at when popped up.


[View source]
def direction=(direction : Gtk::ArrowType) : Nil #

Sets the direction in which the popup will be popped up.

If the button is automatically populated with an arrow icon, its direction will be changed to match.

If the does not fit in the available space in the given direction, GTK will its best to keep it inside the screen and fully visible.

If you pass %GTK_ARROW_NONE for a direction, the popup will behave as if you passed %GTK_ARROW_DOWN (although you won’t see any arrows).


[View source]
def has_frame : Bool #

Returns whether the button has a frame.


[View source]
def has_frame=(has_frame : Bool) : Nil #

Sets the style of the button.


[View source]
def has_frame? : Bool #

[View source]
def hash(hasher) #
Description copied from class Reference

See Object#hash(hasher)


def icon_name : String | Nil #

Gets the name of the icon shown in the button.


[View source]
def icon_name=(icon_name : String) : Nil #

Sets the name of an icon to show inside the menu button.

Setting icon name resets Gtk::MenuButton#label and Gtk::MenuButton#child.

If [property@Gtk.MenuButton:always-show-arrow] is set to TRUE and Gtk::MenuButton#direction is not GTK_ARROW_NONE, a dropdown arrow will be shown next to the icon.


[View source]
def icon_name=(value : Nil) : Nil #

Set #icon_name property to nil.


[View source]
def icon_name? : String | Nil #

Same as #icon_name, but can return nil.


[View source]
def label : String | Nil #

Gets the label shown in the button


[View source]
def label=(label : String) : Nil #

Sets the label to show inside the menu button.

Setting a label resets [property@Gtk.MenuButton:icon-name] and Gtk::MenuButton#child.

If Gtk::MenuButton#direction is not GTK_ARROW_NONE, a dropdown arrow will be shown next to the label.


[View source]
def label=(value : Nil) : Nil #

Set #label property to nil.


[View source]
def label? : String | Nil #

Same as #label, but can return nil.


[View source]
def menu_model : Gio::MenuModel | Nil #

Returns the GMenuModel used to generate the popup.


[View source]
def menu_model=(menu_model : Gio::MenuModel | Nil) : Nil #

Sets the GMenuModel from which the popup will be constructed.

If menu_model is nil, the button is disabled.

A Gtk::Popover will be created from the menu model with Gtk::PopoverMenu#new_from_model. Actions will be connected as documented for this function.

If Gtk::MenuButton#popover is already set, it will be dissociated from the menu_button, and the property is set to nil.


[View source]
def popdown : Nil #

Dismiss the menu.


[View source]
def popover : Gtk::Popover | Nil #

Returns the Gtk::Popover that pops out of the button.

If the button is not using a Gtk::Popover, this function returns nil.


[View source]
def popover=(value : Gtk::Popover | Nil) : Gtk::Popover | Nil #

[View source]
def popover=(popover : Gtk::Widget | Nil) : Nil #

Sets the Gtk::Popover that will be popped up when the menu_button is clicked.

If popover is nil, the button is disabled.

If [property@Gtk.MenuButton:menu-model] is set, the menu model is dissociated from the menu_button, and the property is set to nil.


[View source]
def popup : Nil #

Pop up the menu.


[View source]
def primary : Bool #

Returns whether the menu button acts as a primary menu.


[View source]
def primary=(primary : Bool) : Nil #

Sets whether menu button acts as a primary menu.

Primary menus can be opened with the F10 key.


[View source]
def primary? : Bool #

[View source]
def use_underline : Bool #

Returns whether an embedded underline in the text indicates a mnemonic.


[View source]
def use_underline=(use_underline : Bool) : Nil #

If true, an underline in the text indicates a mnemonic.


[View source]
def use_underline? : Bool #
