Interfaces

GtkCalendar implements AtkImplementorIface and GtkBuildable.

Detailed Description

GtkCalendar is a widget that displays a calendar, one month at a time. It can be created with gtkCalendarNew.

The month and year currently displayed can be altered with gtkCalendarSelectMonth. The exact day can be selected from the displayed month using gtkCalendarSelectDay.

To place a visual marker on a particular day, use gtkCalendarMarkDay and to remove the marker, gtkCalendarUnmarkDay. Alternative, all marks can be cleared with gtkCalendarClearMarks.

The way in which the calendar itself is displayed can be altered using gtkCalendarSetDisplayOptions.

The selected date can be retrieved from a GtkCalendar using gtkCalendarGetDate.

Structures

GtkCalendar

num_marked_dates is an integer containing the number of days that have a mark over them. marked_date is a list containing the day numbers that currently have a mark over them. month, year, and selected_day contain the currently visible month, year, and selected day respectively.

All of these fields should be considered read only, and everything in this struct should only be modified using the functions provided below.

Convenient Construction

gtkCalendar is the equivalent of gtkCalendarNew.

Enums and Flags

GtkCalendarDisplayOptions

These options can be used to influence the display and behaviour of a GtkCalendar.

show-heading

Specifies that the month and year should be displayed.

show-day-names

Specifies that three letter day descriptions should be present.

no-month-change

Prevents the user from switching months with the calendar.

show-week-numbers

Displays each week numbers of the current year, down the left side of the calendar.

week-start-monday

Since GTK+ 2.4, this option is deprecated and ignored by GTK+. The information on which day the calendar week starts is derived from the locale.
