Known Implementations

GtkOrientable is implemented by GtkBox, GtkButtonBox, GtkColorSelection, GtkCombo, GtkFileChooserButton, GtkFileChooserWidget, GtkFontSelection, GtkGammaCurve, GtkHBox, GtkHButtonBox, GtkHPaned, GtkHRuler, GtkHScale, GtkHScrollbar, GtkHSeparator, GtkInfoBar, GtkPaned, GtkRange, GtkRecentChooserWidget, GtkRuler, GtkScale, GtkScaleButton, GtkScrollbar, GtkSeparator, GtkStatusbar, GtkToolPalette, GtkToolbar, GtkVBox, GtkVButtonBox, GtkVPaned, GtkVRuler, GtkVScale, GtkVScrollbar, GtkVSeparator and GtkVolumeButton.

Properties

  "orientation"              GtkOrientation        : Read / Write

Description

The GtkOrientable interface is implemented by all widgets that can be oriented horizontally or vertically. Historically, such widgets have been realized as subclasses of a common base class (e.g GtkBox/GtkHBox/GtkVBox and GtkScale/GtkHScale/GtkVScale). GtkOrientable is more flexible in that it allows the orientation to be changed at runtime, allowing the widgets to 'flip'.

GtkOrientable was introduced in GTK+ 2.16.

gtk_orientable_get_orientation ()

GtkOrientation      gtk_orientable_get_orientation      (GtkOrientable *orientable);

Retrieves the orientation of the orientable.

orientable :

Returns :

the orientation of the orientable.

Since 2.16


gtk_orientable_set_orientation ()

void                gtk_orientable_set_orientation      (GtkOrientable *orientable,
                                                         GtkOrientation orientation);

Sets the orientation of the orientable.

orientable :

a GtkOrientable

orientation :

the orientable's new orientation.
