set_tab_detachable


Description:

[ Version ( since = "2.10" ) ]
public void set_tab_detachable (Widget child, bool detachable)

Sets whether the tab can be detached from this to another notebook or widget.

Note that 2 notebooks must share a common group identificator (see set_group_name) to allow automatic tabs interchange between them.

If you want a widget to interact with a notebook through DnD (i.e.: accept dragged tabs from it) it must be set as a drop destination and accept the target “GTK_NOTEBOOK_TAB”. The notebook will fill the selection with a GtkWidget** pointing to the child widget that corresponds to the dropped tab.

Note that you should use detach_tab instead of remove if you want to remove the tab from the source notebook as part of accepting a drop. Otherwise, the source notebook will think that the dragged tab was removed from underneath the ongoing drag operation, and will initiate a drag cancel animation.

 static void
on_drag_data_received (GtkWidget *widget,
GdkDragContext *context,
gint x,
gint y,
GtkSelectionData *data,
guint info,
guint time,
gpointer user_data)
{
GtkWidget *notebook;
GtkWidget **child;

notebook = gtk_drag_get_source_widget (context);
child = (void*) gtk_selection_data_get_data (data);

// process_widget (*child);

gtk_notebook_detach_tab (GTK_NOTEBOOK (notebook), *child);
}

If you want a notebook to accept drags from other widgets, you will have to set your own DnD code to do it.

Parameters:

this

a Notebook

child

a child Widget

detachable

whether the tab is detachable or not
