Glib::PropertyProxy_ReadOnly<Glib::ustring> Gtk::ActionGroup::property_name | ( | ) | const

A name for the action group.

You rarely need to use properties because there are get_ and set_ methods for almost all of them.

Returns:
  A PropertyProxy that allows you to get or set the property of the value, or receive notification when the value of the property changes.

Glib::PropertyProxy<bool> Gtk::ActionGroup::property_sensitive | ( | ) |

Glib::SignalProxy2< void,const Glib::RefPtr<Action>&,Widget* > Gtk::ActionGroup::signal_connect_proxy | ( | ) |

The connect_proxy signal is emitted after connecting a proxy to an action in the group.

Note that the proxy may have been connected to a different action before.

This is intended for simple customizations for which a custom action class would be too clumsy, e.g. showing tooltips for menuitems in the statusbar.

UIManager proxies the signal and provides global notification just before any action is connected to a proxy, which is probably more convenient to use.

Parameters:

  action | the action
  proxy | the proxy

Prototype:
  `void on_my_connect_proxy(const Glib::RefPtr<Action>& action, Widget* proxy)`

Glib::SignalProxy2< void,const Glib::RefPtr<Action>&,Widget* > Gtk::ActionGroup::signal_disconnect_proxy | ( | ) |

The disconnect_proxy signal is emitted after disconnecting a proxy from an action in the group.

UIManager proxies the signal and provides global notification just before any action is connected to a proxy, which is probably more convenient to use.

Parameters:

  action | the action
  proxy | the proxy

Prototype:
  `void on_my_disconnect_proxy(const Glib::RefPtr<Action>& action, Widget* proxy)`

Glib::SignalProxy1< void,const Glib::RefPtr<Action>& > Gtk::ActionGroup::signal_post_activate | ( | ) |

The post_activate signal is emitted just after the in the is activated.

This is intended for UIManager to proxy the signal and provide global notification just after any action is activated.

Parameters:

  action | the action

Prototype:
  `void on_my_post_activate(const Glib::RefPtr<Action>& action)`

Glib::SignalProxy1< void,const Glib::RefPtr<Action>& > Gtk::ActionGroup::signal_pre_activate | ( | ) |

The pre_activate signal is emitted just before the in the action_group is activated.

This is intended for UIManager to proxy the signal and provide global notification just before any action is activated.

the action

Prototype:
  `void on_my_pre_activate(const Glib::RefPtr<Action>& action)`

Glib::ustring Gtk::ActionGroup::translate_string | ( | const Glib::ustring & | str ) | const

Translates a string using the specified translate_func().

This is mainly intended for language bindings.

Since gtkmm 2.6:

Parameters:

  string | A string.

Returns:
  The translation of string.
