The GtkCellRenderer is a base class of a set of objects used for rendering a cell to a GdkDrawable. These objects are used primarily by the GtkTreeView widget, though they aren't tied to them in any specific way. It is worth noting that GtkCellRenderer is not a GtkWidget and cannot be treated as such.
The primary use of a GtkCellRenderer is for drawing a certain graphical elements on a GdkDrawable. Typically, one cell renderer is used to draw many cells on the screen. To this extent, it isn't expected that a CellRenderer keep any permanent state around. Instead, any state is set just prior to use using GObjects property system. Then, the cell is measured using gtk_cell_renderer_get_size(). Finally, the cell is rendered in the correct location using gtk_cell_renderer_render().
There are a number of rules that must be followed when writing a new GtkCellRenderer. First and formost, it's important that a certain set of properties will always yield a cell renderer of the same size, barring a GtkStyle change. The GtkCellRenderer also has a number of generic properties that are expected to be honored by all children.
Beyond merely rendering a cell, cell renderers can optionally provide active user interface elements. A cell renderer can be activatable like GtkCellRendererToggle, which toggles when it gets activated by a mouse click, or it can be editable like GtkCellRendererText, which allows the user to edit the text using a GtkEntry. To make a cell renderer activatable or editable, you have to implement the activate or start_editing virtual functions, respectively.
typedef enum { GTK_CELL_RENDERER_SELECTED = 1 << 0, GTK_CELL_RENDERER_PRELIT = 1 << 1, GTK_CELL_RENDERER_INSENSITIVE = 1 << 2, /* this flag means the cell is in the sort column/row */ GTK_CELL_RENDERER_SORTED = 1 << 3, GTK_CELL_RENDERER_FOCUSED = 1 << 4 } GtkCellRendererState;
Tells how a cell is to be rendererd.
GTK_CELL_RENDERER_SELECTED | The cell is currently selected, and probably has a selection colored background to render to. |
GTK_CELL_RENDERER_PRELIT | The mouse is hovering over the cell. |
GTK_CELL_RENDERER_INSENSITIVE | The cell is drawn in an insensitive manner |
GTK_CELL_RENDERER_SORTED | The cell is in a sorted row |
GTK_CELL_RENDERER_FOCUSED |
typedef enum { GTK_CELL_RENDERER_MODE_INERT, GTK_CELL_RENDERER_MODE_ACTIVATABLE, GTK_CELL_RENDERER_MODE_EDITABLE } GtkCellRendererMode;
Identifies how the user can interact with a particular cell.
GTK_CELL_RENDERER_MODE_INERT | The cell is just for display and cannot be interacted with. Note that this doesn't mean that eg. the row being drawn can't be selected -- just that a particular element of it cannot be individually modified. |
GTK_CELL_RENDERER_MODE_ACTIVATABLE | The cell can be clicked. |
GTK_CELL_RENDERER_MODE_EDITABLE | The cell can be edited or otherwise modified. |
void gtk_cell_renderer_get_size (GtkCellRenderer *cell, GtkWidget *widget, GdkRectangle *cell_area, gint *x_offset, gint *y_offset, gint *width, gint *height);
Obtains the width and height needed to render the cell. Used by view widgets to determine the appropriate size for the cell_area passed to gtk_cell_renderer_render(). If cell_area is not NULL, fills in the x and y offsets (if set) of the cell relative to this location. Please note that the values set in width and height, as well as those in x_offset and y_offset are inclusive of the xpad and ypad properties.

cell_area : | The area a cell will be allocated, or NULL |
x_offset : | location to return x offset of cell relative to cell_area, or NULL |
y_offset : | location to return y offset of cell relative to cell_area, or NULL |
width : | location to return width needed to render a cell, or NULL |

void gtk_cell_renderer_render (GtkCellRenderer *cell, GdkWindow *window, GtkWidget *widget, GdkRectangle *background_area, GdkRectangle *cell_area, GdkRectangle *expose_area, GtkCellRendererState flags);
Invokes the virtual render function of the GtkCellRenderer. The three passed-in rectangles are areas of window. Most renderers will draw within cell_area; the xalign, yalign, xpad, and ypad fields of the GtkCellRenderer should be honored with respect to cell_area. background_area includes the blank space around the cell, and also the area containing the tree expander; so the background_area rectangles for all cells tile to cover the entire window. expose_area is a clip rectangle.

window : | a GdkDrawable to draw to |

gboolean gtk_cell_renderer_activate (GtkCellRenderer *cell, GdkEvent *event, GtkWidget *widget, const gchar *path, GdkRectangle *background_area, GdkRectangle *cell_area, GtkCellRendererState flags);
Passes an activate event to the cell renderer for possible processing. Some cell renderers may use events; for example, GtkCellRendererToggle toggles when it gets a mouse click.
cell : | a GtkCellRenderer |
event : | a GdkEvent |
widget : | widget that received the event |
path : | widget-dependent string representation of the event location; e.g. for GtkTreeView, a string representation of GtkTreePath |
background_area : | background area as passed to gtk_cell_renderer_render |
cell_area : | cell area as passed to gtk_cell_renderer_render |
flags : | render flags |
Returns : | TRUE if the event was consumed/handled |
GtkCellEditable* gtk_cell_renderer_start_editing (GtkCellRenderer *cell, GdkEvent *event, GtkWidget *widget, const gchar *path, GdkRectangle *background_area, GdkRectangle *cell_area, GtkCellRendererState flags);
Passes an activate event to the cell renderer for possible processing.

event : | a GdkEvent |
widget : | widget that received the event |
path : | widget-dependent string representation of the event location; e.g. for GtkTreeView, a string representation of GtkTreePath |

void gtk_cell_renderer_editing_canceled (GtkCellRenderer *cell);
gtk_cell_renderer_editing_canceled is deprecated and should not be used in newly-written code. Use gtk_cell_renderer_stop_editing() instead
Causes the cell renderer to emit the "editing-canceled" signal. This function is for use only by implementations of cell renderers that need to notify the client program that an editing process was canceled and the changes were not committed.
cell : | A GtkCellRenderer |
Since 2.4
void gtk_cell_renderer_stop_editing (GtkCellRenderer *cell, gboolean canceled);
Informs the cell renderer that the editing is stopped. If canceled is TRUE, the cell renderer will emit the "editing-canceled" signal. This function should be called by cell renderer implementations in response to the "editing-done" signal of GtkCellEditable.
cell : | A GtkCellRenderer |
canceled : | TRUE if the editing has been canceled |
Since 2.6
void gtk_cell_renderer_get_fixed_size (GtkCellRenderer *cell, gint *width, gint *height);
Fills in width and height with the appropriate size of cell.
cell : | A GtkCellRenderer |
width : | location to fill in with the fixed width of the widget, or NULL |
height : | location to fill in with the fixed height of the widget, or NULL |
void gtk_cell_renderer_set_fixed_size (GtkCellRenderer *cell, gint width, gint height);
Sets the renderer size to be explicit, independent of the properties set.
cell : | A GtkCellRenderer |
width : | the width of the cell renderer, or -1 |
height : | the height of the cell renderer, or -1 |
"cell-background" gchararray : Write

"cell-background-gdk" GdkColor : Read / Write

Default value: FALSE
"height" gint : Read / Write

void user_function (GtkCellRenderer *renderer, gpointer user_data);
This signal gets emitted when the user cancels the process of editing a cell. For example, an editable cell renderer could be written to cancel editing when the user presses Escape.
See also: gtk_cell_renderer_editing_canceled()
renderer : | the object which received the signal |
user_data : | user data set when the signal handler was connected. |
Since 2.4
void user_function (GtkCellRenderer *renderer, GtkCellEditable *editable, gchar *path, gpointer user_data);
This signal gets emitted when a cell starts to be edited. The indended use of this signal is to do special setup on editable, e.g. adding a GtkEntryCompletion or setting up additional columns in a GtkComboBox.
Note that GTK+ doesn't guarantee that cell renderers will continue to use the same kind of widget for editing in future releases, therefore you should check the type of editable before doing any specific setup, as in the following example:
static void text_editing_started (GtkCellRenderer *cell, GtkCellEditable *editable, const gchar *path, gpointer data) { if (GTK_IS_ENTRY (editable)) { GtkEntry *entry = GTK_ENTRY (editable); /* ... create a GtkEntryCompletion */ gtk_entry_set_completion (entry, completion); } }
renderer : | the object which received the signal |
editable : | the GtkCellEditable |
path : | the path identifying the edited cell |
user_data : | user data set when the signal handler was connected. |
Since 2.6
