GtkRadioAction

typedef struct _GtkRadioAction GtkRadioAction;

The GtkRadioAction struct contains only private members and should not be accessed directly.

gtk_radio_action_new ()

GtkRadioAction* gtk_radio_action_new        (const gchar *name,
                                             const gchar *label,
                                             const gchar *tooltip,
                                             const gchar *stock_id,
                                             gint value);

Creates a new GtkRadioAction object. To add the action to a GtkActionGroup and set the accelerator for the action, call gtk_action_group_add_action_with_accel().

Since 2.4

gtk_radio_action_get_group ()

GSList*     gtk_radio_action_get_group      (GtkRadioAction *action);

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);
    }

Since 2.4

gtk_radio_action_set_group ()

void        gtk_radio_action_set_group      (GtkRadioAction *action,
                                             GSList *group);

Sets the radio group for the radio action object.

Since 2.4

gtk_radio_action_get_current_value ()

gint        gtk_radio_action_get_current_value
                                            (GtkRadioAction *action);

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

Since 2.4

gtk_radio_action_set_current_value ()

void        gtk_radio_action_set_current_value
                                            (GtkRadioAction *action,
                                             gint current_value);

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

Since 2.10

The "current-value" property

  "current-value"        gint                  : Read / Write

The value property of the currently active member of the group to which this action belongs.

Default value: 0

Since 2.10

The "group" property

  "group"                GtkRadioAction        : Write

Sets a new group for a radio action.

Since 2.4

The "value" property

  "value"                gint                  : Read / Write

The value is an arbitrary integer which can be used as a convenient way to determine which action in the group is currently active in an ::activate or ::changed signal handler. See gtk_radio_action_get_current_value() and GtkRadioActionEntry for convenient ways to get and set this property.

Default value: 0

Since 2.4

The "changed" signal

void        user_function                  (GtkRadioAction *action,
                                            GtkRadioAction *current,
                                            gpointer        user_data)      : Run first / No recursion

The ::changed signal is emitted on every member of a radio group when the active member is changed. The signal gets emitted after the ::activate signals for the previous and current active members.
