Struct gtk4::ListView[][src]

pub struct ListView(_);
Expand description

ListView presents a large dynamic list of items.

ListView uses its factory to generate one row widget for each visible item and shows them in a linear display, either vertically or horizontally.

The property::ListView::show-separators property offers a simple way to display separators between the rows.

ListView allows the user to select items according to the selection characteristics of the model. For models that allow multiple selected items, it is possible to turn on rubberband selection, using property::ListView::enable-rubberband.

If you need multiple columns with headers, see ColumnView.

To learn more about the list widget framework, see the overview.

An example of using ListView: ⚠️ The following code is in c ⚠️

static void
setup_listitem_cb (GtkListItemFactory *factory,
                   GtkListItem        *list_item)
{
  GtkWidget *image;

  image = gtk_image_new ();
  gtk_image_set_icon_size (GTK_IMAGE (image), GTK_ICON_SIZE_LARGE);
  gtk_list_item_set_child (list_item, image);
}

static void
bind_listitem_cb (GtkListItemFactory *factory,
                  GtkListItem        *list_item)
{
  GtkWidget *image;
  GAppInfo *app_info;

  image = gtk_list_item_get_child (list_item);
  app_info = gtk_list_item_get_item (list_item);
  gtk_image_set_from_gicon (GTK_IMAGE (image), g_app_info_get_icon (app_info));
}

static void
activate_cb (GtkListView  *list,
             guint         position,
             gpointer      unused)
{
  GAppInfo *app_info;

  app_info = g_list_model_get_item (G_LIST_MODEL (gtk_list_view_get_model (list)), position);
  g_app_info_launch (app_info, NULL, NULL, NULL);
  g_object_unref (app_info);
}

...

  model = create_application_list ();

  factory = gtk_signal_list_item_factory_new ();
  g_signal_connect (factory, "setup", G_CALLBACK (setup_listitem_cb), NULL);
  g_signal_connect (factory, "bind", G_CALLBACK (bind_listitem_cb), NULL);

  list = gtk_list_view_new (GTK_SELECTION_MODEL (gtk_single_selection_new (model)), factory);

  g_signal_connect (list, "activate", G_CALLBACK (activate_cb), NULL);

  gtk_scrolled_window_set_child (GTK_SCROLLED_WINDOW (sw), list);

ListView uses a single CSS node named listview. It may carry the .separators style class, when property::ListView::show-separators property is set. Each child widget uses a single CSS node named row. If the property::ListItem::activatable property is set, the corresponding row will have the .activatable style class. For rubberband selection, a node with name rubberband is used.

The main listview node may also carry style classes to select the style of list presentation: .rich-list, .navigation-sidebar or .data-table.

Accessibility

ListView uses the AccessibleRole::List role, and the list items use the AccessibleRole::ListItem role.

Implementations

Creates a new ListView that uses the given factory for mapping items to widgets.

The function takes ownership of the arguments, so you can write code like ⚠️ The following code is in c ⚠️

list_view = gtk_list_view_new (create_model (),
  gtk_builder_list_item_factory_new_from_resource ("/resource.ui"));
model

the model to use

factory

The factory to populate items with

Returns

a new ListView using the given model and factory

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

This method returns an instance of ListViewBuilder which can be used to create ListView objects.

Returns whether rows can be selected by dragging with the mouse.

Returns

true if rubberband selection is enabled

Gets the factory that’s currently used to populate list items.

Returns

The factory in use

Gets the model that’s currently used to read the items displayed.

Returns

The model in use

Returns whether the list box should show separators between rows.

Returns

true if the list box shows separators

Returns whether rows will be activated on single click and selected on hover.

Returns

true if rows are activated on single click

Sets whether selections can be changed by dragging with the mouse.

enable_rubberband

true to enable rubberband selection

Sets the ListItemFactory to use for populating list items.

factory

the factory to use

Sets the model to use.

This must be a SelectionModel to use.

model

the model to use

Sets whether the list box should show separators between rows.

show_separators

true to show separators

Sets whether rows should be activated on single click and selected on hover.

single_click_activate

true to activate items on single click

Emitted when a row has been activated by the user, usually via activating the GtkListView|list.activate-item action.

This allows for a convenient way to handle activation in a listview. See ListItem::set_activatable() for details on how to use this signal.

position

position of item to activate
