gtk.icon_view

Module for [IconView] class

class IconView IconViewGidBuilder IconViewGidBuilderImpl

Types 3

classIconView : gtk.widget.Widget, gtk.cell_layout.CellLayout, gtk.scrollable.Scrollable

[gtk.icon_view.IconView] is a widget which displays data in a grid of icons.

[gtk.icon_view.IconView] provides an alternative view on a [gtk.tree_model.TreeModel]. It displays the model as a grid of icons with labels. Like [gtk.tree_view.TreeView], it allows to select one or multiple items (depending on the selection mode, see [gtk.icon_view.IconView.setSelectionMode]). In addition to selection with the arrow keys, [gtk.icon_view.IconView] supports rubberband selection, which is controlled by dragging the pointer.

Note that if the tree model is backed by an actual tree store (as opposed to a flat list where the mapping to icons is obvious), [gtk.icon_view.IconView] will only display the first level of the tree and ignore the tree’s branches.

CSS nodes

iconview.view
╰── [rubberband]

[gtk.icon_view.IconView] has a single CSS node with name iconview and style class .view. For rubberband selection, a subnode with name rubberband is used.

Deprecated

Use [gtk.grid_view.GridView] instead
