💖 Gtk2::ToggleToolButton — the manual, but make it cute ✨

okay bestie, so this is Gtk2::ToggleToolButton, a lil wrapper for the C thing called GtkToggleToolButton, and it lives in the User Contributed Perl Documentation. yes, that gtk2-perl situation. it's a toolbutton but it's also a toggle. it's giving switch energy. 🎀

🌸 NAME 🌸

Gtk2::ToggleToolButton — literally just a wrapper for GtkToggleToolButton. that's the whole name section, we move. 💅

🦋 HIERARCHY 🦋

here's the family tree, no cap. every single ancestor, in order:

Glib::Object
+----Glib::InitiallyUnowned
     +----Gtk2::Object
          +----Gtk2::Widget
               +----Gtk2::Container
                    +----Gtk2::Bin
                         +----Gtk2::ToolItem
                              +----Gtk2::ToolButton
                                   +----Gtk2::ToggleToolButton

so it's descended from Gtk2::ToolButton and that line goes all the way back up to Glib::Object. royal lineage honestly. 👑

✨ INTERFACES ✨

these are the roles it plays, the vibes it embodies:

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

main character with range. 🌈

💜 METHODS 💜

the constructors 🫶

toolitem = Gtk2::ToggleToolButton->new

just new. no args. clean, minimal, iconic. 💖

toolitem = Gtk2::ToggleToolButton->new_from_stock ($stock_id)
  • $stock_id (string)

make one from a stock id instead. you pass it the stock id string and boom, button.

the active stuff 🔥

boolean = $button->get_active

returns a boolean — is it pressed in or not, bestie. 👀

$button->set_active ($is_active)
  • $is_active (boolean)

sets whether it's active. you hand it a boolean, it does the thing.

🎀 PROPERTIES 🎀

  • 'active' (boolean : default false : readable / writable / private / static-nick / static-blurb) — "If the toggle button should be pressed in or not". default is false so it starts unpressed, but you can read it, you can write it, it's private, it's got a static nick and a static blurb. the whole package. 💅

🌟 SIGNALS 🌟

  • toggled (Gtk2::ToggleToolButton) — fires when the toggling happens. the moment. ⭐
