VButtonBox

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().

GtkVButtonBox has been deprecated, use GtkButtonBox instead.

class VButtonBox : ButtonBox {

Constructors

this this(GtkVButtonBox* gtkVButtonBox): Sets our main struct and passes it to the parent class
this this(): Warning gtk_vbutton_box_new has been deprecated since version 3.2 and should not be used in newly-written code. Use gtk_button_box_new() with GTK_ORIENTATION_VERTICAL instead Creates a new vertical button box.

getLayout GtkButtonBoxStyle getLayout(): Retrieves the method being used to arrange the buttons in a button box.
getChildSecondary int getChildSecondary(Widget child): Returns whether child should appear in a secondary group of children. Since 2.4
getChildNonHomogeneous int getChildNonHomogeneous(Widget child): Returns whether the child is exempted from homogenous sizing.
setLayout void setLayout(GtkButtonBoxStyle layoutStyle): Changes the way buttons are arranged in their container.
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.
setChildNonHomogeneous void setChildNonHomogeneous(Widget child, int nonHomogeneous): Sets whether the child is exempted from homogeous sizing.
