Properties

  "sort-key"                 gint                  : Read / Write
  "sort-order"               GtkSortType           : Read / Write

Description

HildonSortDialog is used to define an order (ascending/descending) and a field by which items are sorted in a list. The combo boxes display the current value when the dialog is opened.

Note

HildonSortDialog has been deprecated since Hildon 2.2 See Migrating Sort Dialogs section to know how to migrate this deprecated widget.

Example 29. An example for using HildonSortDialog

HildonSortDialog *sort_dialog = HILDON_SORT_DIALOG (hildon_sort_dialog_new (parent));

gint response_id, add_sort_index;

sort_by[0] = STR_SORT_BY_DATE;
sort_by[1] = STR_SORT_BY_NAME;
sort_by[2] = STR_SORT_BY_SIZE;
sort_by[3] = NULL;

sorting_order[0] = STR_SORTING_ORDER_ASCENDING;
sorting_order[1] = STR_SORTING_ORDER_DESCENDING;
sorting_order[2] = NULL;

add_sort_index = hildon_sort_dialog_add_sort_key (sort_dialog, STR_SORT_BY_DATE);

hildon_sort_dialog_add_sort_key (sort_dialog, STR_SORT_BY_NAME);

hildon_sort_dialog_add_sort_key (sort_dialog, STR_SORT_BY_SIZE);

if (dialog.first_time_clicked == TRUE)
{
	hildon_sort_dialog_set_sort_key (sort_dialog, add_sort_index);
}

if (dialog.first_time_clicked == FALSE)
{
	hildon_sort_dialog_set_sort_key (sort_dialog, dialog.sort_key);
	hildon_sort_dialog_set_sort_order (sort_dialog, dialog.sort_order);
}

gtk_widget_show (GTK_WIDGET (sort_dialog));

response_id = gtk_dialog_run (GTK_DIALOG (sort_dialog));

if (response_id == GTK_RESPONSE_OK)
{
	dialog.sort_key = hildon_sort_dialog_get_sort_key (sort_dialog);

	gtk_label_set_text (GTK_LABEL (dialog.label1), sort_by [dialog.sort_key]);

	dialog.sort_order = hildon_sort_dialog_get_sort_order (sort_dialog);

	gtk_label_set_text (GTK_LABEL (dialog.label2), sorting_order [dialog.sort_order]);

	dialog.first_time_clicked = FALSE;
