GtkCellRendererText

GtkCellRendererText — Renders text in a cell

Functions

Types and Values

Includes

#include <gtk/gtk.h>

Description

A GtkCellRendererText renders a given text in its cell, using the font, color and style information provided by its properties. The text will be ellipsized if it is too long and the “ellipsize” property allows it.

If the “mode” is GTK_CELL_RENDERER_MODE_EDITABLE, the GtkCellRendererText allows to edit its text using an entry.

Functions

gtk_cell_renderer_text_new ()

GtkCellRenderer *
gtk_cell_renderer_text_new (void);

Creates a new GtkCellRendererText. Adjust how text is drawn using object properties. Object properties can be set globally (with g_object_set()). Also, with GtkTreeViewColumn, you can bind a property to a value in a GtkTreeModel. For example, you can bind the “text” property on the cell renderer to a string value in the model, thus rendering a different string in each row of the GtkTreeView

Returns

the new cell renderer


gtk_cell_renderer_text_set_fixed_height_from_font ()

void
gtk_cell_renderer_text_set_fixed_height_from_font
                               (GtkCellRendererText *renderer,
                                gint number_of_rows);

Sets the height of a renderer to explicitly be determined by the “font” and “y_pad” property set on it. Further changes in these properties do not affect the height, so they must be accompanied by a subsequent call to this function. Using this function is unflexible, and should really only be used if calculating the size of a cell is too slow (ie, a massive number of cells displayed). If number_of_rows is -1, then the fixed height is unset, and the height is determined by the properties again.

Parameters

renderer

A GtkCellRendererText

 

number_of_rows

Number of rows of text each cell renderer is allocated, or -1
