Glib::SignalProxy2< void,const Glib::RefPtr<Action>&,Widget* > Gtk::ActionGroup::signal_connect_proxy | ( |  | ) |

Slot Prototype:
  `void on_my_connect_proxy(const Glib::RefPtr<Action>& action, Widget* proxy)`

The signal_connect_proxy() signal is emitted after connecting a proxy to an action in the group. Note that the proxy may have been connected to a different action before.

This is intended for simple customizations for which a custom action class would be too clumsy, e.g. showing tooltips for menuitems in the statusbar.

Gtk::UIManager proxies the signal and provides global notification just before any action is connected to a proxy, which is probably more convenient to use.

Since gtkmm 2.4:

Deprecated: 3.10

Parameters

  action | The action.
  proxy | The proxy.

Glib::SignalProxy2< void,const Glib::RefPtr<Action>&,Widget* > Gtk::ActionGroup::signal_disconnect_proxy | ( |  | ) |

Slot Prototype:
  `void on_my_disconnect_proxy(const Glib::RefPtr<Action>& action, Widget* proxy)`

The signal_disconnect_proxy() signal is emitted after disconnecting a proxy from an action in the group.

Gtk::UIManager proxies the signal and provides global notification just before any action is connected to a proxy, which is probably more convenient to use.

Since gtkmm 2.4:

Deprecated: 3.10

Parameters

  action | The action.
  proxy | The proxy.

Glib::SignalProxy1< void,const Glib::RefPtr<Action>& > Gtk::ActionGroup::signal_post_activate | ( |  | ) |

Slot Prototype:
  `void on_my_post_activate(const Glib::RefPtr<Action>& action)`

The signal_post_activate() signal is emitted just after the action in the action_group is activated

This is intended for Gtk::UIManager to proxy the signal and provide global notification just after any action is activated.

Since gtkmm 2.4:

Deprecated: 3.10

Parameters

  action | The action.

Glib::SignalProxy1< void,const Glib::RefPtr<Action>& > Gtk::ActionGroup::signal_pre_activate | ( |  | ) |

Slot Prototype:
  `void on_my_pre_activate(const Glib::RefPtr<Action>& action)`

The signal_pre_activate() signal is emitted just before the action in the action_group is activated

This is intended for Gtk::UIManager to proxy the signal and provide global notification just before any action is activated.

Since gtkmm 2.4:

Deprecated: 3.10

Parameters

  action | The action.

Glib::ustring Gtk::ActionGroup::translate_string | ( | const Glib::ustring & | string | ) | const

Translates a string using the function set with set_translate_func().

This is mainly intended for language bindings.

Since gtkmm 2.6:

Deprecated: 3.10

Parameters

  string | A string.

Returns
  The translation of string.
