gtk.frame
Module for [Frame] class
Types 3
[gtk.frame.Frame] is a widget that surrounds its child with a decorative frame and an optional label.
If present, the label is drawn inside the top edge of the frame. The horizontal position of the label can be controlled with [gtk.frame.Frame.setLabelAlign].
[gtk.frame.Frame] clips its child. You can use this to add rounded corners to widgets, but be aware that it also cuts off shadows.
GtkFrame as GtkBuildable
The [gtk.frame.Frame] implementation of the [gtk.buildable.Buildable] interface supports placing a child in the label position by specifying “label” as the “type” attribute of a <child> element. A normal content child can be specified without specifying a <child> type attribute.
An example of a UI definition fragment with GtkFrame:
<object class="GtkFrame">
<child type="label">
<object class="GtkLabel" id="frame_label"/>
</child>
<child>
<object class="GtkEntry" id="frame_content"/>
</child>
</object>CSS nodes
frame
├── <label widget>
╰── <child>[gtk.frame.Frame] has a main CSS node with name “frame”, which is used to draw the visible border. You can set the appearance of the border using CSS properties like “border-style” on this node.
Accessibility
[gtk.frame.Frame] uses the [gtk.types.AccessibleRole.Group] role.
