VButtonBox

Description A button box should be used to provide a consistent layout of buttons throughout your application. The layout/spacing can be altered by the programmer, or if desired, by the user to alter the 'feel' of a program to a small degree. A GtkVButtonBox is created with gtk_vbutton_box_new(). Buttons are packed into a button box the same way widgets are added to any other container, using gtk_container_add(). You can also use gtk_box_pack_start() or gtk_box_pack_end(), but for button boxes both these functions work just like gtk_container_add(), ie., they pack the button in a way that depends on the current layout style and on whether the button has had gtk_button_box_set_child_secondary() called on it. The spacing between buttons can be set with gtk_box_set_spacing(). The arrangement and layout of the buttons can be changed with gtk_button_box_set_layout().

Static functions

createActionBox VButtonBox createActionBox(): Creates a new vertical button box and sets standart values for it's comon parameters
getLayoutDefault GtkButtonBoxStyle getLayoutDefault(): Warning gtk_vbutton_box_get_layout_default has been deprecated since version 2.0 and should not be used in newly-written code. Use gtk_button_box_get_layout() instead. Retrieves the current layout used to arrange buttons in button box widgets.
getSpacingDefault int getSpacingDefault(): Warning gtk_vbutton_box_get_spacing_default has been deprecated since version 2.0 and should not be used in newly-written code. Use gtk_box_get_spacing() instead. Retrieves the current default spacing for vertical button boxes. This is the number of pixels to be placed between the buttons when they are arranged.
setLayoutDefault void setLayoutDefault(GtkButtonBoxStyle layout): Warning gtk_vbutton_box_set_layout_default has been deprecated since version 2.0 and should not be used in newly-written code. Use gtk_button_box_set_layout() instead. Sets a new layout mode that will be used by all button boxes.
setSpacingDefault void setSpacingDefault(int spacing): Warning gtk_vbutton_box_set_spacing_default has been deprecated since version 2.0 and should not be used in newly-written code. Use gtk_box_set_spacing() instead. Changes the default spacing that is placed between widgets in an vertical button box.

createOkBox ButtonBox createOkBox(void delegate(Button) onClicked)
createOkCancelBox ButtonBox createOkCancelBox(void delegate(Button) onClicked)
getLayout GtkButtonBoxStyle getLayout(): Retrieves the method being used to arrange the buttons in a button box.
getChildSize void getChildSize(int minWidth, int minHeight): Warning gtk_button_box_get_child_size is deprecated and should not be used in newly-written code. Use the style properties "child-min-width/-height" instead. Retrieves the current width and height of all child widgets in a button box. min_width and min_height are filled with those values, respectively.
getChildIpadding void getChildIpadding(int ipadX, int ipadY): Warning gtk_button_box_get_child_ipadding is deprecated and should not be used in newly-written code. Use the style properties "child-internal-pad-x" and "child-internal-pad-y" instead. Gets the default number of pixels that pad the buttons in a given button box.
getChildSecondary int getChildSecondary(Widget child): Returns whether child should appear in a secondary group of children. Since 2.4
setLayout void setLayout(GtkButtonBoxStyle layoutStyle): Changes the way buttons are arranged in their container.
setChildSize void setChildSize(int minWidth, int minHeight): Warning gtk_button_box_set_child_size is deprecated and should not be used in newly-written code. This is not supported anymore and can only be set through the theme
setChildIpadding void setChildIpadding(int ipadX, int ipadY): Warning gtk_button_box_set_child_ipadding is deprecated and should not be used in newly-written code. Use the style properties "child-internal-pad-x/-y" instead. Changes the amount of internal padding used by all buttons in a given button box.
setChildSecondary void setChildSecondary(Widget child, int isSecondary): Sets whether child should appear in a secondary group of children. A typical use of a secondary child is the help button in a dialog. This group appears after the other children if the style is GTK_BUTTONBOX_START, GTK_BUTTONBOX_SPREAD or GTK_BUTTONBOX_EDGE, and before the other children if the style is GTK_BUTTONBOX_END. For horizontal button boxes, the definition of before/after depends on direction of the widget (see gtk_widget_set_direction()). If the style is GTK_BUTTONBOX_START or GTK_BUTTONBOX_END, then the secondary children are aligned at the other end of the button box from the main children. For the other styles, they appear immediately next to the main children.
