Struct gtk4::Button[][src]

pub struct Button(_);
Expand description

The Button widget is generally used to trigger a callback function that is called when the button is pressed.

An example GtkButton

The Button widget can hold any valid child widget. That is, it can hold almost any other standard Widget. The most commonly used child is the Label.

CSS nodes

Button has a single CSS node with name button. The node will get the style classes .image-button or .text-button, if the content is just an image or label, respectively. It may also receive the .flat style class. When activating a button via the keyboard, the button will temporarily gain the .keyboard-activating style class.

Other style classes that are commonly used with Button include .suggested-action and .destructive-action. In special cases, buttons can be made round by adding the .circular style class.

Button-like widgets like ToggleButton, MenuButton, VolumeButton, LockButton, ColorButton or FontButton use style classes such as .toggle, .popup, .scale, .lock, .color on the button node to differentiate themselves from a plain Button.

Accessibility

Button uses the AccessibleRole::Button role.

Implementations

Creates a new Button widget.

To add a child widget to the button, use ButtonExt::set_child().

Returns

The newly created Button widget.

Creates a new button containing an icon from the current icon theme.

If the icon name isn’t known, a “broken image” icon will be displayed instead. If the current icon theme is changed, the icon will be updated appropriately.

icon_name

an icon name

Returns

a new Button displaying the themed icon

Creates a Button widget with a Label child.

label

The text you want the Label to hold

Returns

The newly created Button widget

Creates a new Button containing a label.

If characters in label are preceded by an underscore, they are underlined. If you need a literal underscore character in a label, use “__” (two underscores). The first underlined character represents a keyboard accelerator called a mnemonic. Pressing Alt and that key activates the button.

label

The text of the button, with an underscore in front of the mnemonic character

Returns

a new Button

Creates a new builder-pattern struct instance to construct Button objects.

This method returns an instance of ButtonBuilder which can be used to create Button objects.
