gtkScrolledWindowAddWithViewport: gtkScrolledWindowAddWithViewport

Description Usage Arguments Details Author(s)

View source: R/gtkFuncs.R

Description

Used to add children without native scrolling capabilities. This is simply a convenience function; it is equivalent to adding the unscrollable child to a viewport, then adding the viewport to the scrolled window. If a child has native scrolling, use gtkContainerAdd instead of this function.

Usage

Arguments

object

a GtkScrolledWindow

child

the widget you want to scroll

Details

The viewport scrolls the child by moving its GdkWindow, and takes the size of the child to be the size of its toplevel GdkWindow. This will be very wrong for most widgets that support native scrolling; for example, if you add a widget such as GtkTreeView with a viewport, the whole widget will scroll, including the column headings. Thus, widgets with native scrolling support should not be used with the GtkViewport proxy.

A widget supports scrolling natively if the set_scroll_adjustments_signal field in GtkWidgetClass is non-zero, i.e. has been filled in with a valid signal identifier.
