public final class StateType
extends org.freedesktop.bindings.Constant
extends org.freedesktop.bindings.Constant

The current state of a Widget with respect to drawing and theming. Within GTK this is used for sub-elements making up a Widget, and different elements may be in different states. In practise, you only use this for rare occasions when you need to override the defaults for example background colour of a Widget. As this will conflict with the Style settings of the users theme and end up creating inconsistencies in visual appearance on the Desktop, methods using StateType should only be used with deliberate care.

Field Detail

ACTIVE

public static final StateType ACTIVE

A Widget that is currently active. The definition of this will vary from Widget to Widget, but a Button, for example, is active while it is depressed.

INSENSITIVE

public static final StateType INSENSITIVE

The Widget is not responding to events. See setSensitive() on Window for more information about this state.

NORMAL

public static final StateType NORMAL

The ordinary state of a Widget

PRELIGHT

public static final StateType PRELIGHT

The mouse pointer is currently hovering over the Widget, and the Widget will be responding to mouse clicks.

SELECTED

public static final StateType SELECTED

The element is selected. The canonical example is a row in a TreeView which has been selected; most themes show this by doing a form of reverse video, swapping foreground and background colours, etc.
