DescriptionA GtkStatusbar is usually placed along the bottom of an application's main GtkWindow. It may provide a regular commentary of the application's status (as is usually the case in a web browser, for example), or may be used to simply output a message when the status changes, (when an upload is complete in an FTP client, for example). It may also have a resize grip (a triangular area in the lower right corner) which can be clicked on to resize the window containing the statusbar. Status bars in GTK+ maintain a stack of messages. The message at the top of the each bar's stack is the one that will currently be displayed.
Any messages added to a statusbar's stack must specify a context
id that is used to uniquely identify the source of a message.
This context id can be generated by One could say that a statusbar maintains one stack of messages for display purposes, but allows multiple message producers to maintain sub-stacks of the messages they produced (via context ids).
Status bars are created using
Messages are added to the bar's stack with
The message at the top of the stack can be removed using DetailsGtkStatusbartypedef struct _GtkStatusbar GtkStatusbar; Contains private data that should be modified with the functions described below. gtk_statusbar_new ()GtkWidget* gtk_statusbar_new (void); Creates a new GtkStatusbar ready for messages.
gtk_statusbar_get_context_id ()guint gtk_statusbar_get_context_id (GtkStatusbar *statusbar, const gchar *context_description); Returns a new context identifier, given a description of the actual context. Note that the description is not shown in the UI.
gtk_statusbar_push ()guint gtk_statusbar_push (GtkStatusbar *statusbar, guint context_id, const gchar *text); Pushes a new message onto a statusbar's stack.
gtk_statusbar_pop ()void gtk_statusbar_pop (GtkStatusbar *statusbar, guint context_id); Removes the first message in the GtkStatusBar's stack with the given context id. Note that this may not change the displayed message, if the message at the top of the stack has a different context id.
gtk_statusbar_remove ()void gtk_statusbar_remove (GtkStatusbar *statusbar, guint context_id, guint message_id);
Forces the removal of a message from a statusbar's stack.
The exact
gtk_statusbar_set_has_resize_grip ()void gtk_statusbar_set_has_resize_grip (GtkStatusbar *statusbar, gboolean setting);
Sets whether the statusbar has a resize grip.
gtk_statusbar_get_has_resize_grip ()gboolean gtk_statusbar_get_has_resize_grip (GtkStatusbar *statusbar); Returns whether the statusbar has a resize grip.
