Image.from_file
Description:
[ CCode ( has_construct_function = false , type = "GtkWidget*" ) ]
public Image.from_file (string filename)
public Image.from_file (string filename)
Creates a new `GtkImage` displaying the file filename.
If the file isn’t found or can’t be loaded, the resulting `GtkImage` will display a “broken image” icon. This function never returns null, it always returns a valid `GtkImage` widget.
If you need to detect failures to load the file, use [ctor@Gdk.Texture.new_from_file] to load the file yourself, then create the `GtkImage` from the texture.
The storage type (see [method@Gtk.Image.get_storage_type]) of the returned image is not defined, it will be whatever is appropriate for displaying the file.
Parameters:
| filename |
a filename |
Returns:
|
a new `GtkImage` |
