Parameters

ParameterType
selfSearchEntry

Returns

void


onChanged()?

optional onChanged: (self) => void

Defined in: react/src/generated/jsx.ts:4948

Emitted at the end of a single user-visible operation on the contents.

E.g., a paste operation that replaces the contents of the selection will cause only one signal emission (even though it is implemented by first deleting the selection, then inserting the new content, and may cause multiple ::notify::text signals to be emitted).

Parameters

ParameterType

Returns

void


onDeleteText()?

Defined in: react/src/generated/jsx.ts:4960

Emitted when text is deleted from the widget by the user.

Defined in: react/src/generated/jsx.ts:4973

Emitted when text is inserted into the widget by the user.

The default handler for this signal will normally be responsible for inserting the text, so by connecting to this signal and then stopping the signal with g_signal_stop_emission(), it is possible to modify the inserted text, or prevent it from being inserted entirely.

Parameters

void


onQueryTooltip()?

optional onQueryTooltip: (self, x, y, keyboardMode, tooltip) => boolean

Defined in: react/src/generated/jsx.ts:648

Emitted when the widget’s tooltip is about to be shown.

This happens when the [property@Gtk.Widget:has-tooltip] property is true and the hover timeout has expired with the cursor hovering above @widget; or emitted when widget got focus in keyboard mode.

Using the given coordinates, the signal handler should determine whether a tooltip should be shown for @widget. If this is the case true should be returned, false otherwise. Note that if keyboard_mode is true, the values of x and y are undefined and should not be used.

The signal handler is free to manipulate tooltip with the therefore destined function calls.
