Module: Gtk::Orientable

Defined in:

(unknown)

Overview

The Gtk::Orientable interface is implemented by all widgets that can be oriented horizontally or vertically. Historically, such widgets have been realized as subclasses of a common base class (e.g Gtk::Box/#GtkHBox/#GtkVBox or Gtk::Scale/#GtkHScale/#GtkVScale). #GtkOrientable is more flexible in that it allows the orientation to be changed at runtime, allowing the widgets to “flip”.

Gtk::Orientable was introduced in GTK+ 2.16.
