= Gtk Simple Widgets =

These are widgets that can be clicked or otherwise react to a user's request.  Gtk provides many different types of widgets, and only a selection is illustrated here.

== Buttons ==

A button displays some text and/or icon, and generates a 'clicked' signal when clicked by the user.
The simplest way to create a button is to pass it some text to use as the label:

{{{
#!cobra
button1 = Button("Click me")
}}}

An alternative way is to use one of the stock actions (see [http://developer.gnome.org/gtk/2.24/gtk-Stock-Items.html#GTK-STOCK-OK:CAPS here] for a complete list).  For example:

{{{
#!cobra
button1 = Button(Stock.quit)
}}}

To connect a method to a button, listen to the 'clicked' event.  For example:

{{{
#!cobra
listen button1.clicked, ref .buttonClicked
}}}

Below is a complete program to create and pack two buttons into a window.  When the top button is clicked, a message is printed on the terminal, and when the bottom button is clicked, the application quits.  The window should look something like:

[[Image(buttons.png)]]

{{{
#!cobra
# @args -pkg:gtk-sharp-2.0  # remove initial '#'

use Gtk

class ExampleWindow inherits Window
	cue init
		base.init("Buttons Example")
		.setDefaultSize(300,200)
		listen .deleteEvent, ref .quit
		.createWidgets

	def quit(obj, e)
		Application.quit

	def createWidgets
		# Create a button with given title text
		button1 = Button("Click me")
		# associate action when clicked
		listen button1.clicked, ref .buttonClicked

		# Create a button using stock 'quit' label and icon
		button2 = Button(Stock.quit)
		# associate action when clicked
		listen button2.clicked, ref .quit

		# Add the two buttons to the window within a box
		box = VBox(true, 0)
		box.packStart(button1, false, false, 20)
		box.packStart(button2, false, false, 20)

		.add(box)

	def buttonClicked(obj, e)
		print "Clicked button"

class MainProgram
	def main
		Application.init
		window = ExampleWindow()
		window.showAll
		Application.run
}}}
