]> GTK+ Reference Manual GTK+ Overview GTK+ is a library for creating graphical user interfaces. It works on many UNIX-like platforms, Windows, and on framebuffer devices. GTK+ is released under the GNU Library General Public License (GNU LGPL), which allows for flexible licensing of client applications. GTK+ has a C-based object-oriented architecture that allows for maximum flexibility. Bindings for other languages have been written, including C++, Objective-C, Guile/Scheme, Perl, Python, TOM, Ada95, Free Pascal, and Eiffel. GTK+ depends on the following libraries: GLib A general-purpose utility library, not specific to graphical user interfaces. GLib provides many useful data types, macros, type conversions, string utilities, file utilities, a main loop abstraction, and so on. Pango Pango is a library for internationalized text handling. It centers around the #PangoLayout object, representing a paragraph of text. Pango provides the engine for #GtkTextView, #GtkLabel, #GtkEntry, and other widgets that display text. ATK ATK is the Accessibility Toolkit. It provides a set of generic interfaces allowing accessibility technologies to interact with a graphical user interface. For example, a screen reader uses ATK to discover the text in an interface and read it to blind users. GTK+ widgets have built-in support for accessibility using the ATK framework. GdkPixbuf This is a small library which allows you to create #GdkPixbuf ("pixel buffer") objects from image data or image files. Use a #GdkPixbuf in combination with #GtkImage to display images. GDK GDK is the abstraction layer that allows GTK+ to support multiple windowing systems. GDK provides drawing and window system facilities on X11, Windows, and the Linux framebuffer device. GTK+ The GTK+ library itself contains widgets, that is, GUI components such as #GtkButton or #GtkTextView. >k-Building; >k-Compiling; >k-Resources; >k-Windows; >k-Framebuffer; GTK+ Core Reference >k-General; >k-Keyboard-Accelerators; >k-Clipboards; >k-Drag-and-Drop; >k-Stock-Items; >k-Themeable-Stock-Images; >k-Resource-Files; >k-Settings; >k-Bindings; >k-Standard-Enumerations; >k-Graphics-Contexts; >k-Styles; >k-Selections; >k-Feature-Test-Macros; >k-Signals; >k-Types; GTK+ Widgets and Objects Object Hierarchy &index-Object-Tree; Windows &GtkDialog; &GtkInvisible; &GtkMessageDialog; &GtkPlug; &GtkWindow; &GtkWindowGroup; Display Widgets &GtkAccelLabel; &GtkImage; &GtkLabel; &GtkProgressBar; &GtkStatusbar; Buttons and Toggles &GtkButton; &GtkCheckButton; &GtkRadioButton; &GtkToggleButton; Numeric/Text Data Entry &GtkEntry; &GtkHScale; &GtkSpinButton; &GtkVScale; Multiline Text Editor >k-TextWidget; >k-GtkTextIter; >k-GtkTextMark; &GtkTextBuffer; &GtkTextTag; &GtkTextTagTable; &GtkTextView; Tree and List Widget >k-TreeWidget; >k-GtkTreeModel; >k-GtkTreeSelection; >k-GtkTreeViewColumn; >k-GtkTreeView; >k-GtkTreeDND; >k-GtkTreeSortable; >k-GtkTreeModelSort; >k-GtkCellRenderer; >k-GtkCellEditable; >k-GtkCellRendererPixbuf; >k-GtkCellRendererText; >k-GtkCellRendererToggle; >k-GtkListStore; >k-GtkTreeStore; Menus, Combo Box, Toolbar &GtkCombo; &GtkItemFactory; &GtkMenu; &GtkMenuBar; &GtkMenuItem; &GtkMenuShell; &GtkOptionMenu; &GtkImageMenuItem; &GtkRadioMenuItem; &GtkCheckMenuItem; &GtkSeparatorMenuItem; &GtkTearoffMenuItem; &GtkToolbar; Selectors (File/Font/Color/Input Devices) &GtkColorSelection; &GtkColorSelectionDialog; &GtkFileSelection; &GtkFontSelection; &GtkFontSelectionDialog; &GtkInputDialog; Layout Containers &GtkAlignment; &GtkAspectFrame; &GtkHBox; &GtkHButtonBox; &GtkFixed; &GtkHPaned; &GtkLayout; &GtkNotebook; &GtkTable; &GtkVButtonBox; &GtkVBox; &GtkVPaned; Ornaments &GtkFrame; &GtkHSeparator; &GtkVSeparator; Scrolling &GtkHScrollbar; &GtkScrolledWindow; &GtkVScrollbar; Miscellaneous &GtkAdjustment; &GtkArrow; &GtkCalendar; &GtkDrawingArea; &GtkEventBox; &GtkHandleBox; &GtkIMContext; &GtkIMContextSimple; &GtkIMMulticontext; &GtkSizeGroup; &GtkTooltips; &GtkViewport; Abstract Base Classes &GtkBin; &GtkBox; &GtkButtonBox; &GtkContainer; >k-GtkEditable; &GtkOldEditable; &GtkItem; &GtkMisc; &GtkObject; &GtkPaned; &GtkRange; &GtkScale; &GtkScrollbar; &GtkSeparator; &GtkWidget; Cross-process Embedding &GtkSocket; Special-purpose features &GtkCurve; &GtkGammaCurve; &GtkHRuler; &GtkRuler; &GtkVRuler; Deprecated &GtkCList; &GtkCTree; &GtkList; &GtkListItem; &GtkPixmap; &GtkProgress; &GtkPreview; &GtkText; &GtkTipsQuery; &GtkTree; &GtkTreeItem;
