Class
Gtk.EventController
Description [src]
abstract class Gtk.EventController : GObject.Object {
/* No available fields */
}GtkEventController is the base class for event controllers.
These are ancillary objects associated to widgets, which react
to GdkEvents, and possibly trigger actions as a consequence.
Event controllers are added to a widget with
gtk_widget_add_controller(). It is rarely necessary to
explicitly remove a controller with gtk_widget_remove_controller().
See the chapter of input handling for an overview of the basic concepts, such as the capture and bubble phases of even propagation.
Instance methods
gtk_event_controller_get_current_event
Returns the event that is currently being handled by the
controller, and NULL at other times.
gtk_event_controller_get_current_event_device
Returns the device of the event that is currently being
handled by the controller, and NULL otherwise.
gtk_event_controller_get_current_event_state
Returns the modifier state of the event that is currently being handled by the controller, and 0 otherwise.
gtk_event_controller_get_current_event_time
Returns the timestamp of the event that is currently being handled by the controller, and 0 otherwise.
gtk_event_controller_get_name
Gets the name of controller.
gtk_event_controller_get_propagation_limit
Gets the propagation limit of the event controller.
gtk_event_controller_get_propagation_phase
Gets the propagation phase at which controller handles events.
gtk_event_controller_get_widget
Returns the GtkWidget this controller relates to.
gtk_event_controller_reset
Resets the controller to a clean state.
gtk_event_controller_set_name
Sets a name on the controller that can be used for debugging.
gtk_event_controller_set_propagation_limit
Sets the event propagation limit on the event controller.
gtk_event_controller_set_propagation_phase
Sets the propagation phase at which a controller handles events.
Properties
Gtk.EventController:name
The name for this controller, typically used for debugging purposes.
Gtk.EventController:propagation-limit
The limit for which events this controller will handle.
Gtk.EventController:propagation-phase
The propagation phase at which this controller will handle events.
Gtk.EventController:widget
