GI.Gtk.Objects.TreeSelection

Description

The TreeSelection object is a helper object to manage the selection for a TreeView widget. The TreeSelection object is automatically created when a new TreeView widget is created, and cannot exist independently of this widget. The primary reason the TreeSelection objects exists is for cleanliness of code and API. That is, there is no conceptual reason all these functions could not be methods on the TreeView widget instead of a separate function.

The TreeSelection object is gotten from a TreeView by calling treeViewGetSelection. It can be manipulated to check the selection status of the tree, as well as select and deselect individual rows. Selection is done completely view side. As a result, multiple views of the same model can have completely different selections. Additionally, you cannot change the selection of a row on the model that is not currently displayed by the view without expanding its parents first.

One of the important things to remember when monitoring the selection of a view is that the TreeSelection::changed signal is mostly a hint. That is, it may only emit one signal when a range of rows is selected. Additionally, it may on occasion emit a TreeSelection::changed signal when nothing has happened (mostly as a result of programmers calling select_row on an already selected row).

Methods

countSelectedRows

treeSelectionCountSelectedRows Source #

Arguments

:: (HasCallStack, MonadIO m, IsTreeSelection a) 
=> a

selection: A TreeSelection.

-> m Int32

Returns: The number of rows selected.

Returns the number of rows that have been selected in tree.

Since: 2.2

getMode

treeSelectionGetMode Source #

Arguments

:: (HasCallStack, MonadIO m, IsTreeSelection a) 
=> a

selection: a TreeSelection

-> m SelectionMode

Returns: the current selection mode

Gets the selection mode for selection. See treeSelectionSetMode.

getSelected

treeSelectionGetSelected Source #

Arguments

:: (HasCallStack, MonadIO m, IsTreeSelection a) 
=> a

selection: A TreeSelection.

-> m (Bool, TreeModel, TreeIter)

Returns: True, if there is a selected node.

Sets iter to the currently selected node, if selection is set to SelectionModeSingle or SelectionModeBrowse.

The iter argument may be Nothing if you just want to test if selection has any selected nodes.

The model argument is filled with the current model as a convenience.

This function will not work with SelectionModeMultiple. See treeSelectionGetSelectedRows instead.

getSelectedRows

treeSelectionGetSelectedRows Source #

Arguments

:: (HasCallStack, MonadIO m, IsTreeSelection a) 
=> a

selection: A TreeSelection.

-> m ([TreePath], TreeModel)

Returns: the selected paths

Creates a list of path of all selected rows.

Additionally, if you are planning on modifying the model after calling this function, you may want to convert the returned list into a list of GtkTreeRowReferences.

To do this, you can use treeRowReferenceNew.

To free the return value, use:

C code

g_list_free_full (list, (GDestroyNotify) gtk_tree_path_free);

Since: 2.2

getTreeView

treeSelectionGetTreeView Source #

Arguments

:: (HasCallStack, MonadIO m, IsTreeSelection a) 
=> a

selection: A TreeSelection

-> m TreeView

Returns: A TreeView

Returns the tree view associated with selection.

iterIsSelected

treeSelectionIterIsSelected Source #

Arguments

:: (HasCallStack, MonadIO m, IsTreeSelection a) 
=> a

selection: A TreeSelection

-> TreeIter

iter: A valid TreeIter

-> m Bool

Returns: True, if iter is selected

Returns True if the row at iter is currently selected.

pathIsSelected

treeSelectionPathIsSelected Source #

Arguments

:: (HasCallStack, MonadIO m, IsTreeSelection a) 
=> a

selection: A TreeSelection.

-> TreePath

path: A TreePath to check selection on.

-> m Bool

Returns: True if path is selected.

Returns True if the row pointed to by path is currently selected. If path does not point to a valid location, False is returned

selectAll

treeSelectionSelectAll Source #

Arguments

:: (HasCallStack, MonadIO m, IsTreeSelection a) 
=> a

selection: A TreeSelection.

-> m () 

Selects all the nodes. selection must be set to GTK_SELECTION_MULTIPLE mode.

selectIter

treeSelectionSelectIter Source #

Arguments

:: (HasCallStack, MonadIO m, IsTreeSelection a) 
=> a

selection: A TreeSelection.

-> TreeIter

iter: The TreeIter to be selected.

-> m () 

Selects the specified iterator.

selectPath

treeSelectionSelectPath Source #

Arguments

:: (HasCallStack, MonadIO m, IsTreeSelection a) 
=> a

selection: A TreeSelection.

-> TreePath

path: The TreePath to be selected.

-> m () 

Select the row at path.

selectRange

treeSelectionSelectRange Source #

Arguments

:: (HasCallStack, MonadIO m, IsTreeSelection a) 
=> a

selection: A TreeSelection.

-> TreePath

startPath: The initial node of the range.

-> TreePath

endPath: The final node of the range.

selectedForeach

treeSelectionSelectedForeach Source #

Arguments

:: (HasCallStack, MonadIO m, IsTreeSelection a) 
=> a

selection: A TreeSelection.

-> TreeSelectionForeachFunc

func: The function to call for each selected node.

-> m () 

Calls a function for each selected node. Note that you cannot modify the tree or selection from within this function. As a result, treeSelectionGetSelectedRows might be more useful.

setMode

treeSelectionSetMode Source #

Arguments

:: (HasCallStack, MonadIO m, IsTreeSelection a) 
=> a

selection: A TreeSelection.

-> SelectionMode

type: The selection mode

-> m ()

=> a

selection: A TreeSelection.

-> Maybe TreeSelectionFunc

func: The selection function. May be Nothing

-> m ()

If set, this function is called before any node is selected or unselected, giving some control over which nodes are selected. The select function should return True if the state of the node may be toggled, and False if the state of the node should be left unchanged.

Properties

mode

Selection mode. See treeSelectionSetMode for more information on this property.

Since: 3.2

constructTreeSelectionMode :: (IsTreeSelection o, MonadIO m) => SelectionMode -> m (GValueConstruct o) Source #

Construct a GValueConstruct with valid value for the “mode” property. This is rarely needed directly, but it is used by new.

getTreeSelectionMode :: (MonadIO m, IsTreeSelection o) => o -> m SelectionMode Source #

Get the value of the “mode” property. When overloading is enabled, this is equivalent to

get treeSelection #mode

setTreeSelectionMode :: (MonadIO m, IsTreeSelection o) => o -> SelectionMode -> m () Source #

Set the value of the “mode” property. When overloading is enabled, this is equivalent to

set treeSelection [ #mode := value ]

Signals

changed

type TreeSelectionChangedCallback = IO () Source #

Emitted whenever the selection has (possibly) changed. Please note that this signal is mostly a hint. It may only be emitted once when a range of rows are selected, and it may occasionally be emitted when nothing has happened.

afterTreeSelectionChanged :: (IsTreeSelection a, MonadIO m) => a -> ((?self :: a) => TreeSelectionChangedCallback) -> m SignalHandlerId Source #

Connect a signal handler for the changed signal, to be run after the default handler. When overloading is enabled, this is equivalent to

after treeSelection #changed callback

By default the object invoking the signal is not passed to the callback. If you need to access it, you can use the implit ?self parameter. Note that this requires activating the ImplicitParams GHC extension.

onTreeSelectionChanged :: (IsTreeSelection a, MonadIO m) => a -> ((?self :: a) => TreeSelectionChangedCallback) -> m SignalHandlerId Source #

Connect a signal handler for the changed signal, to be run before the default handler. When overloading is enabled, this is equivalent to

on treeSelection #changed callback
