gtk.column_view_sorter
Module for [ColumnViewSorter] class
Types 3
[gtk.column_view_sorter.ColumnViewSorter] is a sorter implementation that is geared towards the needs of [gtk.column_view.ColumnView].
The sorter returned by [gtk.column_view.ColumnView.getSorter] is a [gtk.column_view_sorter.ColumnViewSorter].
In column views, sorting can be configured by associating sorters with columns, and users can invert sort order by clicking on column headers. The API of [gtk.column_view_sorter.ColumnViewSorter] is designed to allow saving and restoring this configuration.
If you are only interested in the primary sort column (i.e. the column where a sort indicator is shown in the header), then you can just look at property@Gtk.ColumnViewSorter:primary-sort-column and property@Gtk.ColumnViewSorter:primary-sort-order.
If you want to store the full sort configuration, including secondary sort columns that are used for tie breaking, then you can use [gtk.column_view_sorter.ColumnViewSorter.getNthSortColumn]. To get notified about changes, use [gtk.sorter.Sorter.changed].
To restore a saved sort configuration on a [gtk.column_view.ColumnView], use code like:
sorter = gtk_column_view_get_sorter (view);
for (i = gtk_column_view_sorter_get_n_sort_columns (sorter) - 1; i >= 0; i--)
{
column = gtk_column_view_sorter_get_nth_sort_column (sorter, i, &order);
gtk_column_view_sort_by_column (view, column, order);
