Signal

GtkOverlay::get-child-position

Declaration

gboolean
get_child_position (
  GtkOverlay* self,
  GtkWidget* widget,
  GdkRectangle* allocation,
  gpointer user_data
)

Description [src]

Emitted to determine the position and size of any overlay child widgets.

A handler for this signal should fill allocation with the desired position and size for widget, relative to the ‘main’ child of overlay.

The default handler for this signal uses the widgets halign and valign properties to determine the position and gives the widget its natural size (except that an alignment of GTK_ALIGN_FILL will cause the overlay to be full-width/height). If the main child is a GtkScrolledWindow, the overlays are placed relative to its contents.

Default handler:

The default handler is called after the handlers added via g_signal_connect().

allocation

Type: GdkRectangle

Return location for the allocation.

The argument will be set by the function.

Return value

Type: gboolean

TRUE if the allocation has been filled.
