Alignment

The GtkAlignment widget controls the alignment and size of its child widget. It has four settings: xscale, yscale, xalign, and yalign.

The scale settings are used to specify how much the child widget should expand to fill the space allocated to the GtkAlignment. The values can range from 0 (meaning the child doesn't expand at all) to 1 (meaning the child expands to fill all of the available space).

The align settings are used to place the child widget within the available area. The values range from 0 (top or left) to 1 (bottom or right). Of course, if the scale settings are both set to 1, the alignment settings have no effect.

Note

Note that the desired effect can in most cases be achieved by using the "halign", "valign" and "margin" properties on the child widget, so GtkAlignment should not be used in new code.

}

Constructors

this this(GtkAlignment* gtkAlignment): Sets our main struct and passes it to the parent class
this this(float xalign, float yalign, float xscale, float yscale): Creates a new GtkAlignment.

Functions

getAlignmentStruct GtkAlignment* getAlignmentStruct(): Undocumented in source. Be warned that the author may not have intended to support it.
getPadding void getPadding(uint paddingTop, uint paddingBottom, uint paddingLeft, uint paddingRight): Gets the padding on the different sides of the widget. See gtk_alignment_set_padding(). Since 2.4
getStruct void* getStruct(): the main Gtk struct as a void*
set void set(float xalign, float yalign, float xscale, float yscale): Sets the GtkAlignment values.
setPadding void setPadding(uint paddingTop, uint paddingBottom, uint paddingLeft, uint paddingRight): Sets the padding on the different sides of the widget. The padding adds blank space to the sides of the widget. For instance, this can be used to indent the child widget towards the right by adding padding on the left. Since 2.4
setStruct void setStruct(GObject* obj): Undocumented in source. Be warned that the author may not have intended to support it.

getBinStruct GtkBin* getBinStruct(): Undocumented in source. Be warned that the author may not have intended to support it.
getStruct void* getStruct(): the main Gtk struct as a void*
setStruct void setStruct(GObject* obj): Undocumented in source. Be warned that the author may not have intended to support it.
getChild Widget getChild(): Gets the child of the GtkBin, or NULL if the bin contains no child widget. The returned widget does not have a reference added, so you do not need to unref it.
