RootIF

GtkRoot is the interface implemented by all widgets that can act as a toplevel widget.

The root widget takes care of providing the connection to the windowing system and manages layout, drawing and event delivery for its widget hierarchy.

The obvious example of a GtkRoot is GtkWindow.

To get the display to which a GtkRoot belongs, use [method@Gtk.Root.get_display].

GtkRoot also maintains the location of keyboard focus inside its widget hierarchy, with [method@Gtk.Root.set_focus] and [method@Gtk.Root.get_focus].
