public Widget(org.gnu.glib.Handle handle)
Create a new Widget with a handle to a native resource returned from a call to the native libraries.

Parameters:
handle - The handle that represents a pointer to a native resource.
Method Detail

getWidget

public static Widget getWidget(org.gnu.glib.Handle handle)
Creates a new Widget with a handle to a native resource returned from a call to the native libraries. Should only be used internally by Java-Gnome.

Parameters:
handle - The handle that represents a pointer to a native resource.

show

public void show()
Cause this Widget to be visible.


showAll

public void showAll()
Cause this Widget and all of its' children to be visible.

public void hide()
Cause this Widget to not be visible.


hideAll

public void hideAll()
Cause this Widget and all of its' children to not be visible.


realize

public void realize()
Creates a native window resource associated with this widget. Normally a widget realization happens implicitly; if you show a widget and all of its' parent containers then the widget will be realized automatically.


draw

public void draw()
Causes the entire widget to be redrawn.


drawArea

public void drawArea(Rectangle area)
Causes the specified area to be redrawn.

Parameters:
area - The area to be redrawn.

drawArea

public void drawArea(int x,
                     int y,
                     int width,
                     int height)
Causes the specified area to be redrawn

Parameters:
x - The x coordinate for the area to be redrawn.
y - The y coordinate for the area to be redrawn.
width - The width of the area to be redrawn.
height - The height of the area to be redrawn.

activate

public boolean activate()
For widgets that can be activated (buttons, menu items, etc.) this method activiates them. Activation is what happens when you press Enter on a widget during keyboard navigation.

Returns:
False if this widget is not activatable.

reparent

public void reparent(Widget newParent)
Moves a widget from one Container to another.

Parameters:
newParent - The widget that will be the new parent.

getParent

public Widget getParent()
Returns the parent container for this widget

Returns:
The parent container for this widget.

getParentWindow

public Window getParentWindow()
Returns the widget's parent window.

Returns:
Returns the widget's parent window.

getWindow

public Window getWindow()
Return the widget's Gdk window, if it has one. This is the window to draw upon when writing custom widgets. It's available after the widget has been mapped. Thus if you listen to LifeCycleEvents, you can fetch the Window instance using this method after an LifeCycleEvent of type MAP has occurred.

Returns:
the widget's Gdk Window, or null if a) it hasn't been mapped yet or b) it is of a type that doesn't have a Gdk Window.
See Also:
if you want to be sure of getting to a Gdk Window., for more about custom Widgets.

setEvents

public void setEvents(EventMask events)
Sets the event mask for a widget. The event mask determines which events a widget will receive. Keep in mind that different widgets have different default event masks, and by changing the event mask you may disrupt a widget's functionality, so be careful. This function must be called while a widget is unrealized. Consider addEvents() for widgets that are already realized, or if you want to preserve the existing event mask. This function can't be used with NO_WINDOW widgets; to get events on those widgets, place them inside an EventBox and receive events on the event box.

Parameters:
events -

addEvents

public void addEvents(EventMask events)
Adds the events in the bitfield events to the event mask for widget. See setEvents() for details.

Parameters:
events -

setExtensionEvents

public void setExtensionEvents(ExtensionMode mode)
Sets the extension events mask to mode.

Parameters:
mode - extension events to receive.

getExtensionEvents

public ExtensionMode getExtensionEvents()
Retrieves the extension events the widget will receive.

Returns:
extension events for this widget.

intersect

public Rectangle intersect(Rectangle area)
Computes the intersection of the widget's area and area.

Parameters:
area - The area to use to compute the intersection.
Returns:
The intersection. If the areas don't intersect this method returns null.

hasFocus

public boolean hasFocus()
Determines if the widget has focus within its' TOPLEVEL.

Returns:
true if the widget has focus.

grabFocus

public void grabFocus()
Causes the widget to gain focus within its' TOPLEVEL.


getCanFocus

public boolean getCanFocus()
Find out the current value of the "can-focus" property

Since:
2.8.5
See Also:
setCanFocus(boolean)

setCanFocus

public void setCanFocus(boolean canFocus)
Tell this Widget whether or not it is allowed to accept focus. Telling a widget that it is not to accept focus generally means that it will be skipped over when TABing around a Window. This can, however, have some unexpected side effects: if a Label, for example, is told that it can't have focus but it also told that its text is selectable, then you won't be able to Copy and Paste any text you select from it.

Parameters:
canFocus -
Since:
2.8.5

grabDefault

public void grabDefault()
Causes the widget to become the default widget. The default widget is activated when the user presses Enter in the window. Default widgets must be activatable.


setName

public void setName(java.lang.String name)
Sets the name for this widget. Widgets can be named which allows you to refer to them from a gtkrc file. You can apply a style to widgets with a particular name in the gtkrc file. Names are also useful in accessibility contexts (ie, using ATK) to dig into a runnnig Window and extract a specific Widget (the concept is analoguous to id attributes in XML)

Parameters:
name - The name for the widget.

getName

public java.lang.String getName()
Returns the name for the widget.

Returns:
The name for the widget.

setSensitive

public void setSensitive(boolean sensitive)
Sets the sensitivity of a widget. A widget is sensitive if the user can interact with it. Insensitive widgets are "grayed out" and the user can't interact with them. Insensitive widgets are known as "inactive", "disabled", or "ghosted" in some other toolkits.

Parameters:
sensitive - true to make the widget sensitive.

getSensitive

public boolean getSensitive()
Gets the sensitivity of the widget. A widget is sensitive if the user can interact with it. Insensitive widgets are "grayed out" and the user can't interact with them. Insensitive widgets are known as "inactive", "disabled", or "ghosted" in some other toolkits.

Returns:
true if the widget is sensitive, false otherwise.

getToplevel

public Widget getToplevel()
Returns the topmost widget in the container hierarchy.

Returns:
The topmost widget.

getColormap

public Colormap getColormap()
Returns the Colormap that will be used to render this widget.

                               Color color)
Sets the background color for a widget in a particular state. All other style values are left untouched.

Note that some widgets draw on their parent container's window and thus may not draw any background themselves. This is the case for e.g. Label. To modify the background of such widgets, you have to set the background color on their parent; if you want to set the background of a rectangular area around a label, try placing the label in an EventBox widget and setting the background color on that

Parameters:
state - The widget state to modify.
color - The color to set the background.

setTextColor

public void setTextColor(StateType state,
                         Color color)

Note that some widgets draw on their parent container's window and thus may not draw any background themselves. This is the case for e.g. Label. To modify the background of such widgets, you have to set the background color on their parent; if you want to set the background of a rectangular area around a label, try placing the label in an EventBox widget and setting the background color on that

Parameters:
state - The widget state to modify.
color - The color to set the text.

setBaseColor

public void setBaseColor(StateType state,
                         Color color)

addAccelerator

public void addAccelerator(AccelGroup group,
                           int accelKey,
                           ModifierType accelMods,
                           AccelFlags accelFlags)

setMinimumSize

public void setMinimumSize(int width,
                           int height)
Sets the minimum size of a widget. You can use this method to force a widget to be either larger or smaller that it normally be.

In most cases Window.setDefaultSize() is a better choice for toplevel windows than this method. Setting the default size will still allow users to shrink the window. Setting the minimum size will force them to leave the window at least as large as the request.

Note the inherent danger of setting any fixed size - themes, translations into other languages, different fonts, and user action can change the appropriate size for a given widget. So, it's basically impossible to hardcode a size that will always be correct.

If the minimum size in a given direction is -1 then the "natural" size for the widget will be used instead.

Parameters:
width - The minimum width size to use.
height - The minimum height size to use.

getEventListenerClass

public java.lang.Class getEventListenerClass(java.lang.String signal)
Overrides:
getEventListenerClass in class GObject

getEventType

public EventType getEventType(java.lang.String signal)

Unregister an object that was receiving life cycle event notification.

Parameters:
listener - The object that is to no longer receive life cycle events.

addListener

public void addListener(FocusListener listener)
Register an object to receive focus event notification.

addListener

public void addListener(KeyListener listener)
Register an object to receive key event notification.

An important thing to notice is that some widgets don't receive low-level events (such as a key-press event) by default. So if you want to capture events from them, you should add them to an EventBox, and capture events on the EventBox.

The reason why this happens is that some widgets, for efficiency, don't have their own X window, which is necessary to receive events. These are the widgets that don't have their own X window:

Alignment
Arrow
Bin
Box
Image
Item
Label
Pixmap
ScrolledWindow
Separator
Table
AspectFrame
Frame
VBox
HBox
VSeparator
HSeparator

Parameters:
listener - The object that has implemented the KeyListener interface that is to receive the key events.

removeListener

public void removeListener(KeyListener listener)
Unregister an object that was receiving key event notification.

Parameters:
listener - The object that is to no longer receive key events.

addListener

public void addListener(MouseListener listener)
Register an object to receive mouse event notification.

An important thing to notice is that some widgets don't receive low-level events (such as a mouse-click event) by default. So if you want to capture events from them, you should add them to an EventBox, and capture events on the EventBox.

The reason why this happens is that some widgets, for efficiency, don't have their own X window, which is necessary to receive events. These are the widgets that don't have their own X window:

addListener

public void addListener(DragDestinationListener listener)
Deprecated. Use addListener(DragTargetListener) instead.

Register an object to receive drag drop (destination) events.

Parameters:
listener - The object that has implemented the DragDestinationListener interface

addListener

public void addListener(DragTargetListener listener)

removeListener

public void removeListener(DragDestinationListener listener)
Deprecated. Use removeListener(DragTargetListener) instead.

Unregister an object that was receiving dragDestination event notification.

Parameters:
listener - The object that is to no longer receive dragDestination events

removeListener

public void removeListener(DragTargetListener listener)

addListener

public void addListener(DragSourceListener listener)
Deprecated. Use addListener(DragOriginListener) instead.

Register an object to receive drag source events.

Parameters:
listener - The object that has implemented the DragSourceListener interface

addListener

public void addListener(DragOriginListener listener)

removeListener

public void removeListener(DragSourceListener listener)
Deprecated. Use removeListener(DragOriginListener)

Unregister an object that was receiving drag source event notification.

Parameters:
listener - The object that is to no longer receive drag source events

removeListener

public void removeListener(DragOriginListener listener)

addListener

public void addListener(ExposeListener listener)
Register an object to receive expose event notification.

Parameters:
listener - The object that has implemented the ExposeListener interface that is to receive the expose events.

removeListener

public void removeListener(ExposeListener listener)
Unregister an object that was receiving expose event notification.

Parameters:
listener - The object that is to no longer receive expose events.

addListener

public void addListener(MouseMotionListener listener)
Register an object to receive mouse motion event notification.

An important thing to notice is that some widgets don't receive low-level events (such as a mouse-enter event) by default. So if you want to capture events from them, you should add them to an EventBox, and capture events on the EventBox.

The reason why this happens is that some widgets, for efficiency, don't have their own X window, which is necessary to receive events. These are the widgets that don't have their own X window:

Alignment
Arrow
Bin
Box
Image
Item
Label
Pixmap
ScrolledWindow
Separator
Table
AspectFrame
Frame
VBox
HBox
VSeparator
HSeparator

Parameters:
listener - The object that has implemented the MouseMotionListener interface that is to receive the mouse motion events.

removeListener

public void removeListener(MouseMotionListener listener)
Unregister an object that was receiving mouse motion event notification.

Parameters:
listener - The object that is to no longer receive mouse motion events.
