## Detailed Description

A class representing an adjustable bounded value.

The Gtk::Adjustment object represents a value which has an associated lower and upper bound, together with step and page increments, and a page size. It is used within several gtkmm widgets, including Gtk::SpinButton, Gtk::Viewport, and Gtk::Range (which is a base class for Gtk::HScrollbar, Gtk::VScrollbar, Gtk::HScale, and Gtk::VScale).

The Gtk::Adjustment object does not update the value itself. Instead it is left up to the owner of the Gtk::Adjustment to control the value.

The owner of the Gtk::Adjustment typically calls the value_changed() and changed() functions after changing the value and its bounds. This results in the emission of the "value_changed" or "changed" signal respectively.

## Constructor & Destructor Documentation

virtual Gtk::Adjustment::~Adjustment | ( |  | ) |

virtual

Gtk::Adjustment::Adjustment | ( | double | value,
|  | double | lower,
|  | double | upper,
|  | double | step_increment = `1`,
|  | double | page_increment = `10`,
|  | double | page_size = `0`
| ) |  |

protected

Constructor to create an Adjustment object.

Parameters

  value | The initial value
  lower | The minimum value
  upper | The maximum value
  step_increment | The step increment
  page_increment | The page increment
  page_size | The page size

## Member Function Documentation

void Gtk::Adjustment::changed | ( |  | ) |

Emits a "changed" signal from the Adjustment.

This is typically called by the owner of the Adjustment after it has changed any of the Adjustment fields other than the value.

void Gtk::Adjustment::clamp_page | ( | double | lower,
|  | double | upper
| ) |  |

Updates the Adjustment value to ensure that the range between the parameters lower and upper is in the current page (i.e. between value and value + page_size).

If this range is larger than the page size, then only the start of it will be in the current page. A "changed" signal will be emitted if the value is changed.

Parameters

  upper | The upper value.
  lower | The lower value.

void Gtk::Adjustment::configure | ( | double | value,
|  | double | lower,
|  | double | upper,
|  | double | step_increment,
|  | double | page_increment,
|  | double | page_size
| ) |  |

Sets all properties of the adjustment at once.

Use this function to avoid multiple emissions of the Gtk::Adjustment::signal_changed() signal. See set_lower() for an alternative way of compressing multiple emissions of Gtk::Adjustment::signal_changed() into one.

void Gtk::Adjustment::set_lower | ( | double | lower | ) |

Sets the minimum value of the adjustment.

When setting multiple adjustment properties via their individual setters, multiple Gtk::Adjustment::signal_changed() signals will be emitted. However, since the emission of the Gtk::Adjustment::signal_changed() signal is tied to the emission of the Object::signal_notify() signals of the changed properties, it's possible to compress the Gtk::Adjustment::signal_changed() signals into one by calling Glib::object_freeze_notify() and Glib::object_thaw_notify() around the calls to the individual setters.

Alternatively, using a single Glib::object_set() for all the properties to change, or using configure() has the same effect of compressing Gtk::Adjustment::signal_changed() emissions.
