Variable: GtkCenterBox

const GtkCenterBox: "GtkCenterBox"

Defined in: generated/jsx.ts:14169

Arranges three children in a row, keeping the middle child centered as well as possible.

To add children to GtkCenterBox, use Gtk.CenterBox.set_start_widget, Gtk.CenterBox.set_center_widget and Gtk.CenterBox.set_end_widget.

The sizing and positioning of children can be influenced with the align and expand properties of the children.

GtkCenterBox as GtkBuildable

The GtkCenterBox implementation of the GtkBuildable interface supports placing children in the 3 positions by specifying “start”, “center” or “end” as the “type” attribute of a <child> element.

CSS nodes

GtkCenterBox uses a single CSS node with the name “box”,

The first child of the GtkCenterBox will be allocated depending on the text direction, i.e. in left-to-right layouts it will be allocated on the left and in right-to-left layouts on the right.

In vertical orientation, the nodes of the children are arranged from top to bottom.

Accessibility

Until GTK 4.10, GtkCenterBox used the Gtk.AccessibleRole.group role.

Starting from GTK 4.12, GtkCenterBox uses the Gtk.AccessibleRole.generic role.
