Attributes
"value" Read-Write the current value (float) "lower" Read-Write the minimum value (float) "upper" Read-Write the maximum value (float) "step_increment" Read-Write the increment to use to make minor changes to the value. In a gtk.Scrollbar this increment is used when the mouse is clicked on the arrows at the top and bottom of the scrollbar, to scroll by a small amount. (float) "page_increment" Read-Write the increment to use to make major changes to the value. In a gtk.Scrollbar this increment is used when the mouse is clicked in the trough, to scroll by a large amount. (float) "page_size" Read-Write a widget specific size. In a gtk.Scrollbar this is the size of the area which is currently visible. (float)
gtk.Adjustment Signal Prototypes gobject.GObject Signal Prototypes gtk.Object Signal Prototypes "changed" callback adjustment user_param1 ... "value-changed" callback adjustment user_param1 ... Description The gtk.Adjustment object contains a value which has an associated lower and upper bound, together with step and page increments, and a page size. It is used in conjunction with several PyGTK widgets, including gtk.SpinButton, gtk.Viewport, and gtk.Range (which is a base class for gtk.HScrollbar, gtk.VScrollbar, gtk.HScale, and gtk.VScale). A gtk.Adjustment can be shared by multiple widgets. The gtk.Adjustment object does not update the value itself. Instead it is left up to the associated widget(s) that use the gtk.Adjustment to control the value. The widget using the gtk.Adjustment typically calls the value_changed() or changed() methods after changing the value or its bounds. This results in the emission of the "value_changed" or "changed" signal respectively. A gtk.Adjustment object contains several attributes that provide access to its value and bounds: value lower upper step_increment page_increment page_size The attribute values can be retrieved and set similar to: adjustment.upper = 25.0 lower = adjustment.lower Constructor gtk.Adjustment value0 lower0 upper0 step_incr0 page_incr0 page_size0 value : the initial value. lower : the minimum value. upper : the maximum value. step_incr : the step increment. page_incr : the page increment. page_size : the page size. Returns : a new gtk.Adjustment object gtk.Adjustment() creates a new gtk.Adjustment object with the specified attributes. Any attributes not specified are set to 0.0 by default. Methods gtk.Adjustment.set_all set_all value lower upper step_increment page_increment page_size value : the new value. lower : the new minimum value. upper : the new maximum value. step_increment : the new step increment. page_increment : the new page increment. page_size : the new page size. The set_all() method sets the attributes of the adjustment to the specified values. gtk.Adjustment.changed changed The changed() method emits a "changed" signal from the adjustment. This must typically be called if any of the adjustment attributes other than value has changed so that the widget(s) using the adjustment can reflect the changes. Applications usually will not need to use this method since setting the attributes directly will automatically invoke this method. gtk.Adjustment.value_changed value_changed The value_changed() method emits a "value_changed" signal from the adjustment. This must typically be called after the value attribute of the adjustment has changed. Applications usually will not need to use this method since setting the attribute directly will automatically invoke this method as will using the set_value() method. gtk.Adjustment.clamp_page clamp_page lower upper lower : the lower value upper : the upper value The clamp_page() method updates the adjustment value to ensure that the range between lower and upper is in the current page (i.e. between value and value + page_size). If the range is larger than the page size, then only the start of it will be in the current page. A "changed" signal will be emitted if the value is changed. gtk.Adjustment.get_value get_value Returns : The current value of the adjustment. The get_value() method gets the current value of the adjustment. gtk.Adjustment.set_value set_value value value : the new value The set_value() method sets the value of the adjustment to the specified value. gtk.Adjustment.get_lower get_lower Returns : The current minimum value of the adjustment. This method is available in PyGTK 2.14 and above. The get_lower() method gets the current minimum value of the adjustment. gtk.Adjustment.set_lower set_lower lower lower : the new minimum value This method is available in PyGTK 2.14 and above. The set_lower() method sets the minimum value of the adjustment. When setting multiple adjustment properties via their individual setters, multiple "changed" signals will be emitted. However, since the emission of the "changed" signal is tied to the emission of the "GObject::notify" signals of the changed properties, it's possible to compress the "changed" signals into one by calling gobject.Gobject.freeze_notify() and gobject.Gobject.thaw_notify() around the calls to the individual setters. Alternatively, using gtk.Adjustment.configure() has the same effect of compressing "changed" emissions. gtk.Adjustment.get_page_increment get_page_increment Returns : The current page increment of the adjustment. This method is available in PyGTK 2.14 and above. The get_page_increment() method gets the current page increment of the adjustment. gtk.Adjustment.set_page_increment set_page_increment page_increment page_increment : the new page increment value This method is available in PyGTK 2.14 and above. The set_page_increment() method sets the page increment of the adjustment. See gtk.Adjustment.get_lower() about how to compress multiple emissions of the "changed" signal when setting multiple adjustment properties. gtk.Adjustment.get_page_size get_page_size Returns : The current page size of the adjustment. This method is available in PyGTK 2.14 and above. The get_page_size() method gets the current page size of the adjustment. gtk.Adjustment.set_page_size set_page_size page_size page_size : the new page size value This method is available in PyGTK 2.14 and above. The set_page_size() method sets the page size of the adjustment. See gtk.Adjustment.get_lower() about how to compress multiple emissions of the "changed" signal when setting multiple adjustment properties. gtk.Adjustment.get_step_increment get_step_increment Returns : The current step increment of the adjustment. This method is available in PyGTK 2.14 and above. The get_step_increment() method gets the current step increment of the adjustment. gtk.Adjustment.set_step_increment set_step_increment step_increment step_increment : the new step increment value This method is available in PyGTK 2.14 and above. The set_step_increment() method sets the step increment of the adjustment. See gtk.Adjustment.get_lower() about how to compress multiple emissions of the "changed" signal when setting multiple adjustment properties. gtk.Adjustment.get_upper get_upper Returns : The current minimum value of the adjustment. This method is available in PyGTK 2.14 and above. The get_upper() method gets the current minimum value of the adjustment. gtk.Adjustment.set_upper set_upper upper upper : the new maximum value This method is available in PyGTK 2.14 and above. The set_upper() method sets the maximum value of the adjustment. Note that values will be restricted by upper - page-size if the page-size property is nonzero. See gtk.Adjustment.get_lower() about how to compress multiple emissions of the "changed" signal when setting multiple adjustment properties. Signals The "changed" gtk.Adjustment Signal callback adjustment user_param1 ... adjustment : the object that received the signal user_param1 : the first user parameter (if any) specified with the connect() method ... : additional user parameters (if any) The "changed" signal is emitted when one (or more) of the adjustment attributes (except the value attribute) has changed. The "value-changed" gtk.Adjustment Signal callback adjustment user_param1 ... adjustment : the object that received the signal user_param1 : the first user parameter (if any) specified with the connect() method ... : additional user parameters (if any) The "value-changed" signal is emitted when the adjustment value attribute has changed.
