CellArea.copyContext
gtk.cell_area_context.CellAreaContext copyContext(gtk.cell_area_context.CellAreaContext context)This is sometimes needed for cases where rows need to share alignments in one orientation but may be separately grouped in the opposing orientation.
For instance, [gtk.icon_view.IconView] creates all icons (rows) to have the same width and the cells theirin to have the same horizontal alignments. However each row of icons may have a separate collective height. [gtk.icon_view.IconView] uses this to request the heights of each row based on a context which was already used to request all the row widths that are to be displayed.
Parameters
context | the [gtk.cell_area.CellArea]Context to copy |
Returns
a newly created [gtk.cell_area.CellArea]Context copy of context.
