Detailed Description

Choose an item from a list.

Gtk::DropDown is a widget that allows the user to choose an item from a list of options. The Gtk::DropDown displays the selected choice.

The options are given to Gtk::DropDown in the form of Gio::ListModel, and how the individual options are represented is determined by a Gtk::ListItemFactory. The default factory displays simple strings.

Gtk::DropDown knows how to obtain strings from the items in a Gtk::StringList; for other models, you have to provide an expression to find the strings via set_expression().

Gtk::DropDown can optionally allow search in the popup, which is useful if the list of options is long. To enable the search entry, use set_enable_search().

CSS nodes
Gtk::DropDown has a single CSS node with name dropdown, with the button and popover nodes as children.

Returns
The factory in use.
Glib::RefPtr<const ListItemFactory> Gtk::DropDown::get_factory ( ) const

Gets the factory that's currently used to populate list items.

The factory returned by this function is always used for the item in the button. It is also used for items in the popup if Gtk::DropDown::property_list_factory() is not set.

Returns
The factory in use.
Glib::RefPtr<ListItemFactory> Gtk::DropDown::get_list_factory ( )

Gets the factory that's currently used to populate list items in the popup.

Returns
The factory in use.
Glib::RefPtr<const ListItemFactory> Gtk::DropDown::get_list_factory ( ) const

Gets the model that provides the displayed items.

Returns
The model in use.
Glib::RefPtr<const Gio::ListModel> Gtk::DropDown::get_model ( ) const

Gets the model that provides the displayed items.

Returns
The model in use.
guint Gtk::DropDown::get_selected ( ) const

Gets the position of the selected item.

Returns
The position of the selected item, or GTK_INVALID_LIST_POSITION if not item is selected.
Glib::RefPtr<Glib::ObjectBase> Gtk::DropDown::get_selected_item ( )

Gets the selected item.

If no item is selected, nullptr is returned.

Returns
The selected item.
Glib::RefPtr<const Glib::ObjectBase> Gtk::DropDown::get_selected_item ( ) const

Gets the selected item.

If no item is selected, nullptr is returned.

Glib::PropertyProxy< bool > Gtk::DropDown::property_enable_search ( )

Whether to show a search entry in the popup.

Note that search requires Gtk::DropDown::property_expression() to be set.

Default value: false

Returns
A PropertyProxy that allows you to get or set the value of the property, or receive notification when the value of the property changes.

If Gtk::DropDown::property_factory() is not set, the expression is also used to bind strings to labels produced by a default factory.

Returns
A PropertyProxy that allows you to get or set the value of the property, or receive notification when the value of the property changes.
Glib::PropertyProxy_ReadOnly< Glib::RefPtr<Expression<Glib::ustring> > > Gtk::DropDown::property_expression ( ) const

An expression to evaluate to obtain strings to match against the search term (see Gtk::DropDown::property_enable_search()).

If Gtk::DropDown::property_factory() is not set, the expression is also used to bind strings to labels produced by a default factory.

Returns
A PropertyProxy_ReadOnly that allows you to get the value of the property, or receive notification when the value of the property changes.
