gtk.overlay
Module for [Overlay] class
Types 3
[gtk.overlay.Overlay] is a container which contains a single main child, on top of which it can place “overlay” widgets.
The position of each overlay widget is determined by its [gtk.widget.Widget.halign] and [gtk.widget.Widget.valign] properties. E.g. a widget with both alignments set to [gtk.types.Align.Start] will be placed at the top left corner of the [gtk.overlay.Overlay] container, whereas an overlay with halign set to [gtk.types.Align.Center] and valign set to [gtk.types.Align.End] will be placed a the bottom edge of the [gtk.overlay.Overlay], horizontally centered. The position can be adjusted by setting the margin properties of the child to non-zero values.
More complicated placement of overlays is possible by connecting to the signal@Gtk.Overlay::get-child-position signal.
An overlay’s minimum and natural sizes are those of its main child. The sizes of overlay children are not considered when measuring these preferred sizes.
GtkOverlay as GtkBuildable
The [gtk.overlay.Overlay] implementation of the [gtk.buildable.Buildable] interface supports placing a child as an overlay by specifying “overlay” as the “type” attribute of a <child> element.
CSS nodes
[gtk.overlay.Overlay] has a single CSS node with the name “overlay”. Overlay children whose alignments cause them to be positioned at an edge get the style classes “.left”, “.right”, “.top”, and/or “.bottom” according to their position.
