32 * @short_description: A simple implementation of GMenuModel
35 * #GMenu is a simple implementation of #GMenuModel.
36 * You populate a #GMenu by adding #GMenuItem instances to it.
38 * There are some convenience functions to allow you to directly
39 * add items (avoiding #GMenuItem) for the common cases. To add
40 * a regular item, use g_menu_insert(). To add a section, use
41 * g_menu_insert_section(). To add a submenu, use
42 * g_menu_insert_submenu().
48 * #GMenu is an opaque structure type. You must access it using the

138 * link values of @item and using them to form a new item within @menu.
139 * As such, @item itself is not really inserted, but rather, a menu item
140 * that is exactly the same as the one presently described by @item.
142 * This means that @item is essentially useless after the insertion
143 * occurs. Any changes you make to it are ignored unless it is inserted
144 * again (at which point its updated values will be copied).
146 * You should probably just free @item once you're done.

149 * See g_menu_insert(), g_menu_insert_section() and
150 * g_menu_insert_submenu() as well as "prepend" and "append" variants of
151 * each of these functions.

975 * Normal menu items (ie: not submenu, section or other custom item

977 * the action that they are associated with. The state type of the
978 * action help to determine the disposition of the menu item. See

981 * In general, clicking on the menu item will result in activation of
982 * the named action with the "target" attribute given as the parameter
983 * to the action invocation. If the "target" attribute is not set then
984 * the action is invoked with no parameter.
986 * If the action has no state then the menu item is usually drawn as a
987 * plain menu item (ie: with no additional decoration).
989 * If the action has a boolean state then the menu item is usually drawn
990 * as a toggle menu item (ie: with a checkmark or equivalent
991 * indication). The item should be marked as 'toggled' or 'checked'
992 * when the boolean state is %TRUE.
994 * If the action has a string state then the menu item is usually drawn
995 * as a radio menu item (ie: with a radio bullet or equivalent
996 * indication). The item should be marked as 'selected' when the string
997 * state is equal to the value of the @target property.
