💖 Gtk2::P...nPreview(3) 💖

okay bestie, pull up a chair 🎀 this is the User Contributed Perl Documentation page for Gtk2::PrintOperationPreview, and no, the title isn't broken — that's just how the manual name gets squished in the header. anyway. let's get into it 💅

✨ NAME ✨

Gtk2::PrintOperationPreview — it's literally just a wrapper for GtkPrintOperationPreview. that's it. that's the whole job. a lil middleman with main character energy 🫶

🌸 HIERARCHY 🌸

here's the family tree, and it's giving only-child:

  Glib::Interface
  +----Gtk2::PrintOperationPreview

so it's a Glib::Interface and Gtk2::PrintOperationPreview hangs off it. iconic lineage ngl 👑

🦋 METHODS 🦋

$preview->end_preview

okay so you call this and the preview is done. wrap it up. roll credits. no arguments, no nothing, it just ends the preview ✨

boolean = $preview->is_selected ($page_nr)

asks the big question: is this page selected or not? returns a boolean, so like, true or false, no in-between 💀

  • $page_nr (integer) — the page number you're asking about. an actual integer, bestie, don't get cute with it 🔢

$preview->render_page ($page_nr)

actually renders the page. the way that this just... does the thing 🎨

  • $page_nr (integer) — which page to render. again: integer. we been knew 🌈

💜 SIGNALS 💜

these are the lil events that get emitted, and y'all know I love a signal:

  • got-page-size — emitted with (Gtk2::PrintOperationPreview, Gtk2::PrintContext, Gtk2::PageSetup). three args, she's thorough 💅
  • ready — emitted with (Gtk2::PrintOperationPreview, Gtk2::PrintContext). two args, she's chill 🌸
