Struct gtk::MenuButton[][src]

pub struct MenuButton(_);
Expand description

The MenuButton widget is used to display a popup when clicked on. This popup can be provided either as a Menu, a Popover or an abstract gio::MenuModel.

The MenuButton widget can hold any valid child widget. That is, it can hold almost any other standard Widget. The most commonly used child is Image. If no widget is explicitely added to the MenuButton, a Image is automatically created, using an arrow image oriented according to property::MenuButton::direction or the generic “open-menu-symbolic” icon if the direction is not set.

The positioning of the popup is determined by the property::MenuButton::direction property of the menu button.

For menus, the property::Widget::halign and property::Widget::valign properties of the menu are also taken into account. For example, when the direction is ArrowType::Down and the horizontal alignment is Align::Start, the menu will be positioned below the button, with the starting edge (depending on the text direction) of the menu aligned with the starting edge of the button. If there is not enough space below the button, the menu is popped up above the button instead. If the alignment would move part of the menu offscreen, it is “pushed in”.

Direction = Down

  • halign = start

  • halign = center

  • halign = end

Direction = Up

  • halign = start

  • halign = center

  • halign = end

Direction = Left

  • valign = start

  • valign = center

  • valign = end

Direction = Right

  • valign = start

  • valign = center

  • valign = end
