Widget.activate

For widgets that can be “activated” (buttons, menu items, etc.) this function activates them.

The activation will emit the signal set using gtk_widget_class_set_activate_signal() during class initialization.

Activation is what happens when you press Enter on a widget during key navigation.

If you wish to handle the activation keybinding yourself, it is recommended to use gtk_widget_class_add_shortcut() with an action created with gtk_signal_action_new().

If @widget isn't activatable, the function returns %FALSE.

class Widget
bool
activate
()
