Class GTK2.Adjustment

Inheritance graph
Description

The GTK2.Adjustment object represents a value which has an associated lower and upper bound, together with step and page increments, and a page size. It is used within several GTK2+ widgets, including GtkSpinButton, GtkViewport, and GtkRange (which is a base class for GtkHScrollbar, GtkVScrollbar, GtkHScale, and GtkVScale).

The GtkAdjustment object does not update the value itself. Instead it is left up to the owner of the GtkAdjustment to control the value.

The owner of the GtkAdjustment typically calls the value_changed() and changed() functions after changing the value or its bounds. This results in the emission of the "value_changed" or "changed" signal respectively.

Properties: float lower float page-increment float page-size float step-increment float upper float value

Signals: changed The adjustment changed in some way

value_changed The value changed

Method create

GTK2.Adjustment GTK2.Adjustment(float|mapping value_or_props, float|void lower, float|void upper, float|void step_increment, float|void page_increment, float|void page_size)

Description

The value argument is the initial value you want to give to the adjustment, usually corresponding to the topmost or leftmost position of an adjustable widget. The lower argument specifies the lowest value which the adjustment can hold. The step_increment argument specifies the "smaller" of the two increments by which the user can change the value, while the page_increment is the "larger" one. The page_size argument usually corresponds somehow to the visible area of a panning widget. The upper argument is used to represent the bottom most or right most coordinate in a panning widget's child. Therefore it is not always the largest number that value can take, since the page_size of such widgets is usually non-zero.

All values are optional, they default to 0.0. For most widgets the unit is pixels.
