Derives from <gtk-bin>.

This class defines the following slots:

label

Text of the frame's label

label-xalign

The horizontal alignment of the label

label-yalign

The vertical alignment of the label

shadow

Deprecated property, use shadow_type instead

shadow-type

Appearance of the frame border

label-widget

A widget to display in place of the usual frame label

— Function: gtk-frame-new (label mchars) ⇒  (ret <gtk-widget>)

Creates a new <gtk-frame>, with optional label label. If label is ‘#f’, the label is omitted.

label

the text to use as the label of the frame

ret

a new <gtk-frame> widget

— Function: gtk-frame-set-label (self <gtk-frame>) (label mchars)
— Method: set-label

Sets the text of the label. If label is ‘#f’, the current label is removed.

frame

a <gtk-frame>

label

the text to use as the label of the frame

— Function: gtk-frame-set-label-widget (self <gtk-frame>) (label_widget <gtk-widget>)
— Method: set-label-widget

Sets the label widget for the frame. This is the widget that will appear embedded in the top edge of the frame as a title.

frame

a <gtk-frame>

label-widget

the new label widget

— Function: gtk-frame-set-label-align (self <gtk-frame>) (xalign float) (yalign float)
— Method: set-label-align

Sets the alignment of the frame widget's label. The default values for a newly created frame are 0.0 and 0.5.

frame

a <gtk-frame>

xalign

The position of the label along the top edge of the widget. A value of 0.0 represents left alignment; 1.0 represents right alignment.

yalign

The y alignment of the label. A value of 0.0 aligns under the frame; 1.0 aligns above the frame.

— Function: gtk-frame-set-shadow-type (self <gtk-frame>) (type <gtk-shadow-type>)
— Method: set-shadow-type

Sets the shadow type for frame.

frame

a <gtk-frame>

type

the new <gtk-shadow-type>

— Function: gtk-frame-get-label (self <gtk-frame>) ⇒  (ret mchars)
— Method: get-label

If the frame's label widget is a <gtk-label>, returns the text in the label widget. (The frame will have a <gtk-label> for the label widget if a non-‘#f’ argument was passed to gtk-frame-new.)

frame

a <gtk-frame>

ret

the text in the label, or ‘#f’ if there was no label widget or the lable widget was not a <gtk-label>. This string is owned by GTK+ and must not be modified or freed.

— Function: gtk-frame-get-label-align (self <gtk-frame>) ⇒  (xalign float) (yalign float)
— Method: get-label-align

Retrieves the X and Y alignment of the frame's label. See gtk-frame-set-label-align.

frame

a <gtk-frame>

xalign

location to store X alignment of frame's label, or ‘#f’

yalign

location to store X alignment of frame's label, or ‘#f’

— Function: gtk-frame-get-label-widget (self <gtk-frame>) ⇒  (ret <gtk-widget>)
— Method: get-label-widget

Retrieves the label widget for the frame. See gtk-frame-set-label-widget.

frame

a <gtk-frame>

ret

the label widget, or ‘#f’ if there is none.

— Function: gtk-frame-get-shadow-type (self <gtk-frame>) ⇒  (ret <gtk-shadow-type>)
— Method: get-shadow-type

Retrieves the shadow type of the frame. See gtk-frame-set-shadow-type.

frame

a <gtk-frame>

ret

the current shadow type of the frame.
