✨ NAME ✨

Gtk2::Viewport — bestie, it's literally just a wrapper for GtkViewport 💅

Like. That's the whole thing. It's the Perl-side glow-up of the C widget. Let's get into it 🫶

🌸 HIERARCHY 🌸

Okay so the family tree? Iconic lineage, no cap:

Glib::Object
+----Glib::InitiallyUnowned
     +----Gtk2::Object
          +----Gtk2::Widget
               +----Gtk2::Container
                    +----Gtk2::Bin
                         +----Gtk2::Viewport

Six generations of ancestors. Main character energy all the way down 👑

🦋 INTERFACES 🦋

This thing also implements:

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

Yes bestie, accessibility AND buildable support. She does it all ✨

💖 METHODS 💖

widget = Gtk2::Viewport->new ($hadjustment=undef, $vadjustment=undef)

Make a brand new viewport, fr fr. She takes two args, both optional (they default to undef):

  • $hadjustment — a Gtk2::Adjustment or undef
  • $vadjustment — a Gtk2::Adjustment or undef

window or undef = $viewport->get_bin_window

Grabs the bin window, or undef if there isn't one. Heads up: Since: gtk+ 2.20 ⭐

adjustment = $viewport->get_hadjustment

$viewport->set_hadjustment ($adjustment)

Getter/setter duo for the horizontal adjustment 🎀

  • $adjustment — a Gtk2::Adjustment

shadowtype = $viewport->get_shadow_type

$viewport->set_shadow_type ($type)

Read it, write it. The shadow type of the box around the viewport 🌈

  • $type — a Gtk2::ShadowType

adjustment = $viewport->get_vadjustment

$viewport->set_vadjustment ($adjustment)

Same vibe as the horizontal one but, you know, vertical 💜

  • $adjustment — a Gtk2::Adjustment

window or undef = $viewport->get_view_window

The view window, or undef. Since: gtk+ 2.22 🔥

🎀 PROPERTIES 🎀

'hadjustment' (Gtk2::Adjustment : default undef : readable / writable / construct / private / static-nick / static-blurb)

The GtkAdjustment that determines the values of the horizontal position for this viewport.

'shadow-type' (Gtk2::ShadowType : default "in" : readable / writable / private / static-nick / static-blurb)

Determines how the shadowed box around the viewport is drawn.

'vadjustment' (Gtk2::Adjustment : default undef : readable / writable / construct / private / static-nick / static-blurb)

The GtkAdjustment that determines the values of the vertical position for this viewport.

Note the default on 'shadow-type' is literally "in", bestie. That's the vibe out of the box 💅

🔥 SIGNALS 🔥

set-scroll-adjustments (Gtk2::Viewport, Gtk2::Adjustment, Gtk2::Adjustment)

That's the signal, and those are the three things it hands you: the viewport itself, then two Gtk2::Adjustments. Slay 🫶

🌈 ENUMS AND FLAGS 🌈

enum Gtk2::ShadowType

The full menu, no skips:
