Details

class Gtk.BindingEntry

Each key binding element of a binding sets binding list is represented by a Gtk.BindingEntry.

classmethod add_signal_from_string(binding_set, signal_desc)

Parameters:

• binding_set (Gtk.BindingSet) – a Gtk.BindingSet
• signal_desc (str) – a signal description

Returns:

GLib.TokenType.NONE if the signal was successfully parsed and added, the expected token otherwise

Return type:

GLib.TokenType

Parses a signal description from signal_desc and incorporates it into binding_set.

Signal descriptions may either bind a key combination to one or more signals:

bind "key" {
  "signalname" (param, ...)
  ...
}

Or they may also unbind a key combination:

unbind "key"

Key combinations must be in a format that can be parsed by Gtk.accelerator_parse().

New in version 3.0.

classmethod add_signall(binding_set, keyval, modifiers, signal_name, binding_args)

Parameters:

• binding_set (Gtk.BindingSet) – a Gtk.BindingSet to add a signal to
• keyval (int) – key value
• modifiers (Gdk.ModifierType) – key modifier
• signal_name (str) – signal name to be bound
• binding_args ([Gtk.BindingArg]) – list of Gtk.BindingArg signal arguments

Override or install a new key binding for keyval with modifiers on binding_set.

classmethod remove(binding_set, keyval, modifiers)

Parameters:

• binding_set (Gtk.BindingSet) – a Gtk.BindingSet to remove an entry of
• keyval (int) – key value of binding to remove
• modifiers (Gdk.ModifierType) – key modifier of binding to remove

Remove a binding previously installed via gtk_binding_entry_add_signal() on binding_set.

classmethod skip(binding_set, keyval, modifiers)

Parameters:

• binding_set (Gtk.BindingSet) – a Gtk.BindingSet to skip an entry of
• keyval (int) – key value of binding to skip
• modifiers (Gdk.ModifierType) – key modifier of binding to skip

Install a binding on binding_set which causes key lookups to be aborted, to prevent bindings from lower priority sets to be activated.

New in version 2.12.
