💫 Gtk2::CellRendererSpinner — bestie's guide 💫

okay so picture this: you're deep in Gtk2 land, you want a little spinner spinning inside a cell, and you go "wait, is there a renderer for that??" and yes babes there IS, and this is her. This page lives in the User Contributed Perl Documentation corner of the manual, section 3, and she is literally just a wrapper for GtkCellRendererSpinner. no cap.

✨ NAME ✨

Gtk2::CellRendererSpinner — she's the Perl wrapper for GtkCellRendererSpinner. that's it, that's the whole job, and she does it beautifully 💅

🌸 HIERARCHY 🌸

the family tree!! she is NOT a root-level girlie, she comes from a long line of iconiques:

Glib::Object
+----Glib::InitiallyUnowned
     +----Gtk2::Object
          +----Gtk2::CellRenderer
               +----Gtk2::CellRendererSpinner

so she's a Glib::Object, which means Glib::InitiallyUnowned, which means Gtk2::Object, which means Gtk2::CellRenderer, which means her. generational excellence fr fr 👑

🛠️ METHODS 🛠️

🌟 cellrenderer = Gtk2::CellRendererSpinner->new

boom. that's the constructor. you call new, you get a cellrenderer back, and now you have a spinner renderer to play with. she's brand new, she's fresh, she's ready. 🎀

🎛️ PROPERTIES 🎛️

three of them. all readable AND writable, so you can peek at them and also boss them around. periodt.

  • 'active' (boolean : default false : readable / writable) — is the spinner actually active, like, is she being shown in the cell or is she just sitting there existing? default is false, so out of the box she is not showing. you gotta flip that switch yourself bestie.
  • 'pulse' (Glib::UInt : default 0 : readable / writable) — the pulse of the spinner. that's the animation beat, the rhythm, the vibe. default is 0.
  • 'size' (Gtk2::IconSize : default "menu" : readable / writable) — the GtkIconSize value that says how big the rendered spinner is gonna be. default is "menu". she comes pre-sized, cute.

🚩 ENUMS AND FLAGS 🚩

enum Gtk2::IconSize

the size menu, the whole buffet, and you get to pick. every option with her Perl name and her C name, both, because we love bilingual queens:

  • 'invalid' / GTK_ICON_SIZE_INVALID
  • 'menu' / GTK_ICON_SIZE_MENU
  • 'small-toolbar' / GTK_ICON_SIZE_SMALL_TOOLBAR
  • 'large-toolbar' / GTK_ICON_SIZE_LARGE_TOOLBAR
  • 'button' / GTK_ICON_SIZE_BUTTON
  • 'dnd' / GTK_ICON_SIZE_DND
  • 'dialog' / GTK_ICON_SIZE_DIALOG

seven of them, all accounted for, none skipped, we do not gatekeep here 💖
