Description The gtk.Range is the base class for the gtk.Scale and gtk.Scrollbar widgets. The gtk.Range provides the common functionality for these widgets that allow a user to set a value in a range of values. The gtk.Scale works in conjunction with a gtk.Adjustment which provides the range information. Methods gtk.Range.set_update_policy set_update_policy policy policy : the update policy: gtk.UPDATE_CONTINUOUS, gtk.UPDATE_DISCONTINUOUS, gtk.UPDATE_DELAYED The set_update_policy() method sets the "update-policy" property to the value specified by policy. The update policy has the following values and effects: gtk.UPDATE_CONTINUOUS anytime the range slider is moved, the range value will change and the "value_changed" signal will be emitted. gtk.UPDATE_DELAYED the value will be updated after a brief timeout where no slider motion occurs, so value changes are delayed slightly rather than continuously updated. gtk.UPDATE_DISCONTINUOUS the value will only be updated when the user releases the button and ends the slider drag operation. gtk.Range.get_update_policy get_update_policy Returns : the current update policy The get_update_policy() method gets the value of the "update-policy" property. The update policy is one of: gtk.UPDATE_CONTINUOUS, gtk.UPDATE_DISCONTINUOUS or gtk.UPDATE_DELAYED. See the set_update_policy() method for details. gtk.Range.set_adjustment set_adjustment adjustment adjustment : a gtk.Adjustment The set_adjustment() method sets the "adjustment" property to the value specified by adjustment. The gtk.Adjustment is used as the "model" object for this range widget. adjustment indicates the current range value, the minimum and maximum range values, the step and page increments used for keybindings and scrolling, and the page size. The page size is normally 0 for gtk.Scale and nonzero for gtk.Scrollbar, and indicates the size of the visible area of the widget being scrolled. The page size affects the size of the scrollbar slider. gtk.Range.get_adjustment get_adjustment Returns : a gtk.Adjustment The get_adjustment() method returns the value of the "adjustment" property. See the set_adjustment() method for details. gtk.Range.set_inverted set_inverted setting setting : if True invert the range The set_inverted() method sets the "inverted" property to the value specified by setting. If setting is True the normal motion of the range widget is reversed. Ranges normally move from lower to higher values as the slider moves from top to bottom or left to right. Inverted ranges have higher values at the top or left rather than on the bottom or right. gtk.Range.get_inverted get_inverted Returns : True if the range is inverted The get_inverted() method returns the value of the "inverted" property that was set by the set_inverted() method. gtk.Range.set_increments set_increments step page step : the step size page : the page size The set_increments() method sets the step and page sizes for the range to the values specified by step and page respectively. The step size is used when the user clicks the gtk.Scrollbar arrows or moves gtk.Scale via the arrow keys. The page size is used for example when moving via Page Up or Page Down keys. gtk.Range.set_range set_range min max min : the minimum range value max : the maximum range value The set_range() method sets the minimum and maximum allowable values for the gtk.Range to that values specified by min and max respectively. If the range has a non-zero page size, it is also forced to be between min and max. gtk.Range.set_value set_value value value : the new value of the range The set_value() method sets the current value of the range to the value specified by value. value will be forced inside the minimum or maximum range values. The range emits the "value_changed" signal if the value changes. gtk.Range.get_value get_value Returns : the current value of the range. The get_value() method gets the current value of the range. gtk.Range.set_fill_level set_fill_level fill_level fill_level : the new position of the fill level indicator. The set_fill_level() method sets the new position of the fill level indicator. The "fill level" is probably best described by its most prominent use case, which is an indicator for the amount of pre-buffering in a streaming media player. In that use case, the value of the range would indicate the current play position, and the fill level would be the position up to which the file/stream has been downloaded. This amount of prebuffering can be displayed on the range's trough and is themeable separately from the trough. To enable fill level display, use gtk.Range.set_show_fill_level(). The range defaults to not showing the fill level. Additionally, it's possible to restrict the range's slider position to values which are smaller than the fill level. This is controller by gtk.Range.set_restrict_to_fill_level() and is by default enabled. gtk.Range.get_fill_level get_fill_level Returns : The current fill level. The get_fill_level() method gets the current position of the fill level indicator. gtk.Range.set_restrict_to_fill_level set_restrict_to_fill_level restrict_to_fill_level restrict_to_fill_level : Whether the fill level restricts slider movement. The set_restrict_to_fill_level() method sets whether the slider is restricted to the fill level. See gtk.Range.set_fill_level() for a general description of the fill level concept. gtk.Range.get_restrict_to_fill_level get_restrict_to_fill_level Returns : True if range is restricted to the fill level. The get_restrict_to_fill_level() method gets whether the range is restricted to the fill level. gtk.Range.set_show_fill_level set_show_fill_level show_fill_level show_fill_level : Whether a fill level indicator graphics is shown. The set_show_fill_level() method sets whether a graphical fill level is show on the trough. See gtk.Range.set_fill_level() for a general description of the fill level concept. gtk.Range.get_show_fill_level get_show_fill_level Returns : True if range shows the fill level. The get_show_fill_level() method gets whether the range displays the fill level graphically. gtk.Range.set_round_digits set_round_digits round_digits round_digits : the precision in digits, or -1. This method is available in PyGTK 2.24 and above. The set_round_digits() method sets the number of digits to round the value to when it changes. See "change-value". gtk.Range.get_round_digits get_round_digits Returns : the number of digits to round to. This method is available in PyGTK 2.24 and above. The get_round_digits() method gets the number of digits to round the value to when it changes. See "change-value". gtk.Range.set_min_slider_size set_min_slider_size min_size min_size : The slider's minimum size. This method is available in PyGTK 2.22 and above. The set_min_slider_size() method sets the minimum size of the range's slider. This method is useful mainly for GtkRange subclasses. gtk.Range.get_min_slider_size get_min_slider_size Returns : The minimum size of the range's slider. This method is available in PyGTK 2.22 and above. The get_min_slider_size() method gets the minimum size of the range's slider. This method is useful mainly for GtkRange subclasses. gtk.Range.get_range_rect get_range_rect Returns : the range rectangle. This method is available in PyGTK 2.22 and above. The get_range_rect() method returns the area that contains the range's trough and its steppers. This method is useful mainly for GtkRange subclasses. gtk.Range.set_slider_size_fixed set_slider_size_fixed size_fixed size_fixed : True to make the slider size constant. This method is available in PyGTK 2.22 and above. The set_slider_size_fixed() method sets whether the range's slider has a fixed size, or a size that depends on it's adjustment's page size. This method is useful mainly for GtkRange subclasses. gtk.Range.get_slider_size_fixed get_slider_size_fixed Returns : True when the range's slider has a fixed size. This method is available in PyGTK 2.22 and above. The get_slider_size_fixed() method returns whether the range's slider has a fixed size, or a size that depends on it's adjustment's page size. gtk.Range.set_flippable set_flippable flippable flippable : True to make the range flippable. This method is available in PyGTK 2.22 and above. The set_flippable() method sets whether the range is flippable. If a range is flippable, it will switch its direction if it is horizontal and its direction is gtk.TEXT_DIR_RTL. gtk.Range.get_flippable get_flippable Returns : >True if the range is flippable. This method is available in PyGTK 2.22 and above.

The set_upper_stepper_sensitivity() method sets the sensitivity policy for the stepper that points to the 'upper' end of the range's adjustment. gtk.Range.get_upper_stepper_sensitivity get_upper_stepper_sensitivity Returns : The upper stepper's sensitivity policy. The get_upper_stepper_sensitivity() method gets the sensitivity policy for the stepper that points to the 'upper' end of the range's adjustment. Signals The "adjust-bounds" gtk.Range Signal callback range value user_param1 ... range : the range that received the signal value : the value user_param1 : the first user parameter (if any) specified with the connect() method ... : additional user parameters (if any) The "adjust-bounds" signal is emitted when the range is adjusted by user action. Note the value can be more or less than the range since it depends on the mouse position. The "change-value" gtk.Range Signal callback range scroll value user_param1 ... range : the range that received the signal. the object which received the signal. scroll : the type of scroll action that was performed - one of the .. value : the new value resulting from the scroll action. user_param1 : the first user parameter (if any) specified with the connect() method ... : additional user parameters (if any) Returns : True to prevent other handlers from being invoked for the signal or False to propagate the signal further. This signal is available in GTK+ 2.6 and above. The "change-value" signal is emitted when a scroll action is performed on a range. It allows an application to determine the type of scroll event that occurred and the resultant new value. The application can handle the event itself and return True to prevent further processing. Or, by returning False, it can pass the event to other handlers until the default GTK+ handler is reached. The value parameter is unrounded. An application that overrides the "change-value" signal is responsible for clamping the value to the desired number of decimal digits. It is not possible to use delayed update policies in an overridden "change-value" handler. The "move-slider" gtk.Range Signal callback range scrolltype user_param1 ... range : the range that received the signal scrolltype : the scroll type issued because a key was pressed by the user; one of the . user_param1 : the first user parameter (if any) specified with the connect() method ... : additional user parameters (if any) The "move-slider" signal is emitted when the user presses a key (e.g. Page Up, Home, Right Arrow) to move the slider. The "value-changed" gtk.Range Signal callback range user_param1 ... range : the range that received the signal user_param1 : the first user parameter (if any) specified with the connect() method ... : additional user parameters (if any) The "value-changed" signal is emitted when the range value is changed either programmatically or by user action.
