Class Details¶

class Gtk.RadioAction(*args, **kwargs)¶

Bases: Gtk.ToggleAction
Abstract: No
Structure: Gtk.RadioActionClass

A Gtk.RadioAction is similar to Gtk.RadioMenuItem. A number of radio actions can be linked together so that only one may be active at any one time.

classmethod new(name, label, tooltip, stock_id, value)[source]¶

Parameters

name (str) – A unique name for the action
label (str or None) – The label displayed in menu items and on buttons, or None
tooltip (str or None) – A tooltip for this action, or None
stock_id (str or None) – The stock icon to display in widgets representing this action, or None
value (int) – The value which Gtk.RadioAction.get_current_value() should return if this action is selected.

Returns

a new Gtk.RadioAction

Return type

Gtk.RadioAction

Creates a new Gtk.RadioAction object. To add the action to a Gtk.ActionGroup and set the accelerator for the action, call Gtk.ActionGroup.add_action_with_accel().

New in version 2.4.

Deprecated since version 3.10.

get_current_value()[source]¶

Returns: The value of the currently active group member
Return type: int

Obtains the value property of the currently active member of the group to which self belongs.

New in version 2.4.

Deprecated since version 3.10.

get_group()[source]¶

Returns: the list representing the radio group for this object
Return type: [Gtk.RadioAction]

Returns the list representing the radio group for this object. Note that the returned list is only valid until the next change to the group.

A common way to set up a group of radio group is the following:

GSList *group = NULL;
GtkRadioAction *action;

while ( ...more actions to add... /)
  {
     action = gtk_radio_action_new (...);

     gtk_radio_action_set_group (action, group);
     group = gtk_radio_action_get_group (action);
  }

New in version 2.4.

Deprecated since version 3.10.

join_group(group_source)[source]¶

Parameters: group_source (Gtk.RadioAction or None) – a radio action object whos group we are joining, or None to remove the radio action from its group

Joins a radio action object to the group of another radio action object.

Use this in language bindings instead of the Gtk.RadioAction.get_group() and Gtk.RadioAction.set_group() methods

A common way to set up a group of radio actions is the following:

GtkRadioAction *action;
GtkRadioAction *last_action;

while ( ...more actions to add... /)
  {
     action = gtk_radio_action_new (...);

     gtk_radio_action_join_group (action, last_action);
     last_action = action;
  }

New in version 3.0.

Deprecated since version 3.10.

set_current_value(current_value)[source]¶

Parameters: current_value (int) – the new value

Sets the currently active group member to the member with value property current_value.

New in version 2.10.

Deprecated since version 3.10.

set_group(group)[source]¶

Parameters: group ([Gtk.RadioAction] or None) – a list representing a radio group, or None

Sets the radio group for the radio action object.

New in version 2.4.

Deprecated since version 3.10.
