Constructor

GtkImagenew_from_animation

Declaration [src]

GtkWidget*
gtk_image_new_from_animation (
  GdkPixbufAnimation* animation
)

Description [src]

Creates a GtkImage displaying the given animation. The GtkImage does not assume a reference to the animation; you still need to unref it if you own references. GtkImage will add its own reference rather than adopting yours.

Note that the animation frames are shown using a timeout with

G_PRIORITY_DEFAULT. When using animations to indicate busyness,

keep in mind that the animation will only be shown if the main loop is not busy with something that has a higher priority.

Parameters

animation

Type: GdkPixbufAnimation

An animation.

The data is owned by the caller of the function.

Return value

Type: GtkWidget

A new GtkImage widget.

The data is owned by the called function.
