GI.Gtk.Objects.ShortcutsWindow

A GtkShortcutsWindow shows information about the keyboard shortcuts and gestures of an application.

The shortcuts can be grouped, and you can have multiple sections in this window, corresponding to the major modes of your application.

Additionally, the shortcuts can be filtered by the current view, to avoid showing information that is not relevant in the current application context.

The recommended way to construct a GtkShortcutsWindow is with Builder, by using the <child> tag to populate a GtkShortcutsWindow with one or more ShortcutsSection objects, which contain one or more ShortcutsGroup instances, which, in turn, contain ShortcutsShortcut instances.

If you need to add a section programmatically, use shortcutsWindowAddSection instead of windowSetChild, as the shortcuts window manages its children directly.

A simple example:

This example has as single section. As you can see, the shortcut groups are arranged in columns, and spread across several pages if there are too many to find on a single page.

The .ui file for this example can be found here.

An example with multiple views:

This example shows a GtkShortcutsWindow that has been configured to show only the shortcuts relevant to the "stopwatch" view.

The .ui file for this example can be found here.

An example with multiple sections:

This example shows a GtkShortcutsWindow with two sections, "Editor Shortcuts" and "Terminal Shortcuts".

The .ui file for this example can be found here.

addSection

shortcutsWindowAddSection

Arguments

:: (HasCallStack, MonadIO m, IsShortcutsWindow a, IsShortcutsSection b)

=> a

self: a GtkShortcutsWindow

-> b

section: the GtkShortcutsSection to add

-> m ()

Adds a section to the shortcuts window.

This is the programmatic equivalent to using Builder and a <child> tag to add the child.

Using windowSetChild is not appropriate as the shortcuts window manages its children internally.

Since: 4.14

Properties

sectionName

The name of the section to show.

This should be the section-name of one of the GtkShortcutsSection objects that are in this shortcuts window.

clearShortcutsWindowSectionName :: (MonadIO m, IsShortcutsWindow o) => o -> m ()

Set the value of the “section-name” property to Nothing. When overloading is enabled, this is equivalent to

clear #sectionName

constructShortcutsWindowSectionName :: (IsShortcutsWindow o, MonadIO m) => Text -> m (GValueConstruct o)

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

getShortcutsWindowSectionName :: (MonadIO m, IsShortcutsWindow o) => o -> m (Maybe Text)

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

get shortcutsWindow #sectionName

setShortcutsWindowSectionName :: (MonadIO m, IsShortcutsWindow o) => o -> Text -> m ()

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

set shortcutsWindow [ #sectionName := value ]

viewName

The view name by which to filter the contents.

This should correspond to the ShortcutsGroup:view property of some of the ShortcutsGroup objects that are inside this shortcuts window.

Set this to Nothing to show all groups.

clearShortcutsWindowViewName :: (MonadIO m, IsShortcutsWindow o) => o -> m ()

Set the value of the “view-name” property to Nothing. When overloading is enabled, this is equivalent to

clear #viewName

constructShortcutsWindowViewName :: (IsShortcutsWindow o, MonadIO m) => Text -> m (GValueConstruct o)

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

getShortcutsWindowViewName :: (MonadIO m, IsShortcutsWindow o) => o -> m (Maybe Text)

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

get shortcutsWindow #viewName

setShortcutsWindowViewName :: (MonadIO m, IsShortcutsWindow o) => o -> Text -> m ()

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

set shortcutsWindow [ #viewName := value ]

Signals

close

type ShortcutsWindowCloseCallback = IO ()

Emitted when the user uses a keybinding to close the window.

This is a keybinding signal.

The default binding for this signal is the <kbd>Escape</kbd> key.

afterShortcutsWindowClose :: (IsShortcutsWindow a, MonadIO m) => a -> ((?self :: a) => ShortcutsWindowCloseCallback) -> m SignalHandlerId

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

after shortcutsWindow #close 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.

onShortcutsWindowClose :: (IsShortcutsWindow a, MonadIO m) => a -> ((?self :: a) => ShortcutsWindowCloseCallback) -> m SignalHandlerId

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

on shortcutsWindow #close callback

search

type ShortcutsWindowSearchCallback = IO ()

Emitted when the user uses a keybinding to start a search.

This is a keybinding signal.

The default binding for this signal is <kbd>Control</kbd>+<kbd>F</kbd>.

afterShortcutsWindowSearch :: (IsShortcutsWindow a, MonadIO m) => a -> ((?self :: a) => ShortcutsWindowSearchCallback) -> m SignalHandlerId

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

after shortcutsWindow #search 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.

onShortcutsWindowSearch :: (IsShortcutsWindow a, MonadIO m) => a -> ((?self :: a) => ShortcutsWindowSearchCallback) -> m SignalHandlerId

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

on shortcutsWindow #search callback
