Detailed Description

The AboutDialog offers a simple way to display information about a program like its logo, name, copyright, website and license.

It is also possible to give credits to the authors, documenters, translators and artists who have worked on the program. An about dialog is typically opened when the user selects the About option from the Help menu. All parts of the dialog are optional.

About dialogs often contain links and email addresses. Gtk::AboutDialog displays these as clickable links. By default, it calls gtk_show_uri() when a user clicks one. The behaviour can be overridden with the activate_link signal. Email addresses in the authors, documenters and artists properties are recognized by looking for <user@host>, URLs are recognized by looking for http://url, with the URL extending to the next space, tab or line break.

An AboutDialog looks like this:

void Gtk::AboutDialog::set_translator_credits ( const Glib::ustring translator_credits)

Sets the translator credits string which is displayed in the translators tab of the secondary credits dialog.

The intended use for this string is to display the translator of the language which is currently used in the user interface. Using gettext(), a simple way to achieve that is to mark the string for translation:

[C example ellipted] It is a good idea to use the customary msgid “translator-credits” for this purpose, since translators will already know the purpose of that msgid, and since Gtk::AboutDialog will detect if “translator-credits” is untranslated and hide the tab.

Parameters
translator_creditsThe translator credits.
