Class Details¶

class Adw.Clamp(**kwargs)¶

Bases:: Gtk.Widget, Gtk.Orientable
Abstract:: No
Structure:: Adw.ClampClass

A widget constraining its child to a given size.

The AdwClamp widget constrains the size of the widget it contains to a given maximum size. It will constrain the width if it is horizontal, or the height if it is vertical. The expansion of the child from its minimum to its maximum size is eased out for a smooth transition.

If the child requires more than the requested maximum size, it will be allocated the minimum size it can fit in instead.

AdwClamp can scale with the text scale factor, use the [property`ClampLayout`:py:data::unit<Adw.Clamp.props.unit>] property to enable that behavior.

CSS nodes

AdwClamp has a single CSS node with name clamp.

classmethod new()¶

Returns:: the newly created AdwClamp
Return type:: Gtk.Widget

Creates a new AdwClamp.

get_child()¶

Returns:: the child widget of self
Return type:: Gtk.Widget or None

Gets the child widget of self.

get_maximum_size()¶

Returns:: the maximum size to allocate to the child
Return type:: int

Gets the maximum size allocated to the child.

get_tightening_threshold()¶

Returns:: the size above which the child is clamped
Return type:: int

Gets the size above which the child is clamped.

get_unit()¶

Returns:: the length unit
Return type:: Adw.LengthUnit

Gets the length unit for maximum size and tightening threshold.

New in version 1.4.

set_child(child)¶

Parameters:: child (Gtk.Widget or None) – the child widget

Sets the child widget of self.

set_maximum_size(maximum_size)¶

Parameters:: maximum_size (int) – the maximum size

Sets the maximum size allocated to the child.

It is the width if the clamp is horizontal, or the height if it is vertical.

set_tightening_threshold(tightening_threshold)¶

Parameters:: tightening_threshold (int) – the tightening threshold

Sets the size above which the child is clamped.

Starting from this size, the clamp will tighten its grip on the child, slowly allocating less and less of the available size up to the maximum allocated size. Below that threshold and below the maximum size, the child will be allocated all the available size.

If the threshold is greater than the maximum size to allocate to the child, the child will be allocated all the size up to the maximum. If the threshold is lower than the minimum size to allocate to the child, that size will be used as the tightening threshold.

Effectively, tightening the grip on the child before it reaches its maximum size makes transitions to and from the maximum size smoother when resizing.

set_unit(unit)¶

Parameters:: unit (Adw.LengthUnit) – the length unit

Sets the length unit for maximum size and tightening threshold.

Allows the sizes to vary depending on the text scale factor.

New in version 1.4.

Property Details¶

Adw.Clamp.props.child¶

Name:: child
Type:: Gtk.Widget
Default Value:: None
Flags:: READABLE, WRITABLE, EXPLICIT_NOTIFY

The child widget of the AdwClamp.

Adw.Clamp.props.maximum_size¶

Name:: maximum-size
Type:: int
Default Value:: 600
Flags:: READABLE, WRITABLE, EXPLICIT_NOTIFY

The maximum size allocated to the child.

It is the width if the clamp is horizontal, or the height if it is vertical.

Adw.Clamp.props.tightening_threshold¶

Name:: tightening-threshold
Type:: int
Default Value:: 400
Flags:: READABLE, WRITABLE, EXPLICIT_NOTIFY

The size above which the child is clamped.

Starting from this size, the clamp will tighten its grip on the child, slowly allocating less and less of the available size up to the maximum allocated size. Below that threshold and below the maximum size, the child will be allocated all the available size.

If the threshold is greater than the maximum size to allocate to the child, the child will be allocated all the size up to the maximum. If the threshold is lower than the minimum size to allocate to the child, that size will be used as the tightening threshold.

Effectively, tightening the grip on the child before it reaches its maximum size makes transitions to and from the maximum size smoother when resizing.

Adw.Clamp.props.unit¶

Name:: unit
Type:: Adw.LengthUnit
Default Value:: Adw.LengthUnit.SP
Flags:: READABLE, WRITABLE, EXPLICIT_NOTIFY

The length unit for maximum size and tightening threshold.

Allows the sizes to vary depending on the text scale factor.
