Detail

The TreeSelection object is a helper object to manage the selection for a TreeView widget. The TreeSelection object is automatically created when a new TreeView widget is created, and cannot exist independentally of this widget. The primary reason the TreeSelection objects exists is for cleanliness of code and API. That is, there is no conceptual reason all these functions could not be methods on the TreeView widget instead of a separate function.

The TreeSelection object is gotten from a TreeView by calling treeViewGetSelection. It can be manipulated to check the selection status of the tree, as well as select and deselect individual rows. Selection is done completely on the TreeView side. As a result, multiple views of the same model can have completely different selections. Additionally, you cannot change the selection of a row on the model that is not currently displayed by the view without expanding its parents first.

One of the important things to remember when monitoring the selection of a view is that the "changed" signal is mostly a hint. That is, it may only emit one signal when a range of rows is selected. Additionally, it may on occasion emit a "changed" signal when nothing has happened (mostly as a result of programmers calling select_row on an already selected row).

Types
data TreeSelection Source
class GObjectClass o => TreeSelectionClass o Source
castToTreeSelection :: GObjectClass obj => obj -> TreeSelectionSource
gTypeTreeSelection :: GTypeSource
toTreeSelection :: TreeSelectionClass o => o -> TreeSelectionSource
data SelectionMode Source

Mode in which selections can be performed

  • There is a deprecated entry SelectionExtended which should have the same value as SelectionMultiple. C2HS chokes on that construct.
Constructors
SelectionNone
SelectionSingle
SelectionBrowse
SelectionMultiple
type TreeSelectionCB = TreePath -> IO BoolSource
Callback type for a function that is called everytime the selection changes. This function is set with treeSelectionSetSelectFunction.
type TreeSelectionForeachCB = TreeIter -> IO ()Source
Callback function type for treeSelectionSelectedForeach.
Methods
treeSelectionSetMode :: TreeSelectionClass self => self -> SelectionMode -> IO ()Source
Set single or multiple choice.
treeSelectionGetMode :: TreeSelectionClass self => self -> IO SelectionModeSource
Gets the selection mode.
treeSelectionSetSelectFunction :: TreeSelectionClass self => self -> TreeSelectionCB -> IO ()Source

Set a callback function if selection changes.

  • If set, this function is called before any node is selected or unselected, giving some control over which nodes are selected. The select function should return True if the state of the node may be toggled, and False if the state of the node should be left unchanged.
treeSelectionGetTreeView :: TreeSelectionClass self => self -> IO TreeViewSource
Retrieve the TreeView widget that this TreeSelection works on.
treeSelectionGetSelected :: TreeSelectionClass self => self -> IO (Maybe TreeIter)Source
Retrieves the selection of a single choice TreeSelection.
treeSelectionSelectedForeach :: TreeSelectionClass self => self -> TreeSelectionForeachCB -> IO ()Source

Execute a function for each selected node.

treeSelectionGetSelectedRowsSource
:: TreeSelectionClass self
=> selfreturns a list containing a TreePath for each selected row.
-> IO [TreePath]

Creates a list of paths of all selected rows.

  • Additionally, if you are planning on modifying the model after calling this function, you may want to convert the returned list into a list of TreeRowReferences. To do this, you can use treeRowReferenceNew.
  • Available since Gtk+ version 2.2
treeSelectionCountSelectedRowsSource
:: TreeSelectionClass self
=> selfreturns The number of rows selected.
-> IO Int

Returns the number of rows that are selected.

  • Available since Gtk+ version 2.2
treeSelectionSelectPath :: TreeSelectionClass self => self -> TreePath -> IO ()Source
Select a specific item by TreePath.
treeSelectionUnselectPath :: TreeSelectionClass self => self -> TreePath -> IO ()Source
Deselect a specific item by TreePath.
treeSelectionPathIsSelected :: TreeSelectionClass self => self -> TreePath -> IO BoolSource
Returns True if the row at the given path is currently selected.
treeSelectionSelectIter :: TreeSelectionClass self => self -> TreeIter -> IO ()Source
Select a specific item by TreeIter.
treeSelectionUnselectIter :: TreeSelectionClass self => self -> TreeIter -> IO ()Source
Deselect a specific item by TreeIter.
treeSelectionIterIsSelected :: TreeSelectionClass self => self -> TreeIter -> IO BoolSource
Returns True if the row at the given iter is currently selected.
treeSelectionSelectAll :: TreeSelectionClass self => self -> IO ()Source
Selects all the nodes. The tree selection must be set to SelectionMultiple mode.
treeSelectionUnselectAll :: TreeSelectionClass self => self -> IO ()Source
Unselects all the nodes.
treeSelectionSelectRangeSource
:: TreeSelectionClass self
=> selfstartPath - The initial node of the range.
-> TreePathendPath - The final node of the range.
-> TreePath
-> IO ()
Selects a range of nodes, determined by startPath and endPath inclusive. selection must be set to SelectionMultiple mode.
treeSelectionUnselectRangeSource
:: TreeSelectionClass self
=> selfstartPath - The initial node of the range.
-> TreePathendPath - The initial node of the range.
-> TreePath
-> IO ()

Unselects a range of nodes, determined by startPath and endPath inclusive.

  • Available since Gtk+ version 2.2
Attributes
treeSelectionMode :: TreeSelectionClass self => Attr self SelectionModeSource
'mode' property. See treeSelectionGetMode and treeSelectionSetMode
Signals
onSelectionChanged :: TreeSelectionClass self => self -> IO () -> IO (ConnectId self)Source
afterSelectionChanged :: TreeSelectionClass self => self -> IO () -> IO (ConnectId self)Source
Emitted whenever the selection has (possibly) changed. Please note that this signal is mostly a hint. It may only be emitted once when a range of rows are selected, and it may occasionally be emitted when nothing has happened.
