Method GTK2.Table()->attach()


Method attach

GTK2.Table attach(GTK2.Widget subwidget, int left, int right, int top, int bottom, int xoptions, int yoptions, int xpad, int ypad)

Description

The left and right attach arguments specify where to place the widget, and how many boxes to use. If you want a button in the lower right table entry of our 2x2 table, and want it to fill that entry ONLY. left_attach would be = 1, right_attach = 2, top_attach = 1, bottom_attach = 2.

Now, if you wanted a widget to take up the whole top row of our 2x2 table, you'd use left_attach = 0, right_attach = 2, top_attach = 0, bottom_attach = 1.

The xoptions and yoptions are used to specify packing options and may be OR'ed together to allow multiple options.

These options are: <ul> <li> GTK2.Fill - If the table box is larger than the widget, and GTK_FILL is specified, the widget will expand to use all the room available.</li> <li> GTK2.Shrink - If the table widget was allocated less space then was requested (usually by the user resizing the window), then the widgets would normally just be pushed off the bottom of the window and disappear. If GTK_SHRINK is specified, the widgets will shrink with the table.</li> <li> GTK2.Expand - This will cause the table cell to expand to use up any remaining space in the window.</li> </ul>

Padding is just like in boxes, creating a clear area around the widget specified in pixels
