lookup_icon


Description:

[ Version ( since = "2.4" ) ]
public IconInfo? lookup_icon (string icon_name, int size, IconLookupFlags flags)

Looks up a named icon and returns a IconInfo containing information such as the filename of the icon.

The icon can then be rendered into a pixbuf using load_icon. ( load_icon combines these two steps if all you need is the pixbuf.)

When rendering on displays with high pixel densities you should not use a size multiplied by the scaling factor returned by functions like get_scale_factor. Instead, you should use lookup_icon_for_scale, as the assets loaded for a given scaling factor may be different.

Parameters:

this

a IconTheme

icon_name

the name of the icon to lookup

size

desired icon size

flags

flags modifying the behavior of the icon lookup

Returns:

a IconInfo object containing information about the icon, or null if the icon wasn’t found.
