Function

GtkDragIconcreate_widget_for_value

Declaration [src]

GtkWidget*
gtk_drag_icon_create_widget_for_value (
  const GValue* value
)

Description [src]

Creates a widget that can be used as a drag icon for the given value.

Supported types include strings, GdkRGBA and GtkTextBuffer. If GTK does not know how to create a widget for a given value, it will return NULL.

This method is used to set the default drag icon on drag-and-drop operations started by GtkDragSource, so you don’t need to set a drag icon using this function there.

Parameters

value

Type: GValue

A GValue.

The data is owned by the caller of the function.

Return value

Type: GtkWidget

A new GtkWidget for displaying value as a drag icon.

The caller of the function takes ownership of the data, and is responsible for freeing it.

The return value can be NULL.
