HildonEntry implements AtkImplementorIface, GtkBuildable, GtkEditable and GtkCellEditable.
HildonEntry is text entry derived from the GtkEntry widget but with a slightly different appearance designed for the Hildon 2.2 framework.
Text entries in Hildon 2.2 can have a placeholder text, set with
hildon_gtk_entry_set_placeholder_text()
. This text will be shown if
the entry is empty and doesn't have the input focus, but it's
otherwise ignored. Thus, calls to gtk_entry_get_text()
will never
return the placeholder text, not even when it's being displayed.
Example 12. Creating a HildonEntry with a placeholder
GtkWidget * create_entry (void) { GtkWidget *entry; entry = hildon_entry_new (HILDON_SIZE_AUTO); hildon_gtk_entry_set_placeholder_text (GTK_ENTRY (entry), "First name"); return entry; }
GtkWidget* hildon_entry_new (HildonSizeType size);
Creates a new entry.
