💖 Gtk2::RecentChooserMenu — the whole vibe 💖

okay so bestie, this is Gtk2::RecentChooserMenu, a wrapper for GtkRecentChooserMenu 💅 it lives in the User Contributed Perl Documentation section of your man pages, so you already know it's giving "someone in the perl community lovingly wrote this down for us" energy 🫶

🌸 HIERARCHY 🌸

the family tree, and yes we're respecting our elders ✨ it goes all the way up like this:

Glib::Object
+----Glib::InitiallyUnowned
     +----Gtk2::Object
          +----Gtk2::Widget
               +----Gtk2::Container
                    +----Gtk2::MenuShell
                         +----Gtk2::Menu
                              +----Gtk2::RecentChooserMenu

so it's a Menu, which is a MenuShell, which is a Container, which is a Widget, which is a Gtk2::Object, which is a Glib::InitiallyUnowned, which is a Glib::Object. seven layers of ancestry, main character lineage fr fr 👑

🦋 INTERFACES 🦋

these are the interfaces it implements, aka the extracurriculars on its college application 💜

  • Glib::Object::_Unregistered::AtkImplementorIface
  • Gtk2::Buildable
  • Gtk2::RecentChooser
  • Gtk2::Activatable

✨ METHODS ✨

🎀 making one

widget = Gtk2::RecentChooserMenu->new

just make a fresh one, no manager specified, we're keeping it simple bestie 🌈

widget = Gtk2::RecentChooserMenu->new_for_manager ($manager)

make one that's tied to a specific manager 💫

  • $manager (Gtk2::RecentManager) — the manager you want it hooked up to

🎀 the show-numbers situation

boolean = $menu->get_show_numbers

getter and setter, the iconic duo 🫶

  • $show_numbers (boolean) — true or false, that's it, that's the whole argument

💅 PROPERTIES 💅

one property, and it's a whole personality trait:

  • 'show-numbers' (boolean : default false : readable / writable / private / static-nick / static-blurb) — whether the items should be displayed with a number 👀

like, do you want them numbered or not. that's the question. default is no, because minimalism, but you can absolutely turn it on and let them be numbered icons 🔥
