## Description

### Note

This widget is available in PyGTK 2.6 and above.

The `gtk.IconView` widget provides an alternative view of a `gtk.ListStore` model. It displays the model as a grid of icons with labels. Like `gtk.TreeView`, you can select one or multiple items (depending on the selection mode, see the `set_selection_mode`() method for more information). In addition to selection with the arrow keys, `gtk.IconView` supports rubberband selection, which is controlled by dragging the pointer.

## Constructor

        gtk.IconView(model=None)

`model` : | A `gtk.TreeModel`, or `None`
Returns : | a new `gtk.IconView` widget.

### Note

This constructor is available in PyGTK 2.6 and above.

Creates a new `gtk.IconView` widget. If `model` is specified and not `None` it should specify a `gtk.TreeModel` to be used as the model.

## Methods

### gtk.IconView.set_model

        def set_model(model=None)

### gtk.IconView.get_model

        def get_model()

Returns : | The `gtk.TreeModel` used by the cell view or `None`.

### Note

This method is available in PyGTK 2.6 and above.

The `get_model`() method returns the value of the "model" property which contains the `gtk.TreeModel` used by the cell view. If no model is being used this method returns `None`.

### gtk.IconView.set_text_column

        def set_text_column(column)

`column` : | The index of a column in the model or -1 to unset the column

### Note

This method is available in PyGTK 2.6 and above.

The `set_text_column`() method sets the "text-column" property to the value of `column` which should be the index of a column in the model containing strings to be used for text. If `column` is -1 the text column is unset.

### gtk.IconView.get_text_column

        def get_text_column()

Returns : | The index of a model's column or -1 if unset.

### Note

This method is available in PyGTK 2.6 and above.

        def set_markup_column(column)

`column` : | The index of a column in the model or -1.

### Note

This method is available in PyGTK 2.6 and above.

The `set_markup_column`() method sets the "markup-column" property to the value specified by `column`. The "markup-column" property indicates the index of a column in the model to be used for markup information. If `column` is -1 the markup column will be unset. If the markup column is set, it overrides the text column set by the `set_text_column`() method.

### gtk.IconView.get_markup_column

        def get_markup_column()

Returns : | the index of the model column containing markup or -1.

### Note

This method is available in PyGTK 2.6 and above.

The `get_markup_column` method returns the value of the "markup-column" property which contains the index of the column in the model that contains the Pango markup for text. if the "markup-column" property is -1, the markup column is unset.

`column` : | the index of a model column or -1

### Note

This method is available in PyGTK 2.6 and above.

The `set_pixbuf_column`() method sets the "pixbuf-column" property to the value of `column`. If column >= 0 the icon view `gtk.gdk.Pixbuf` objects will be retrieved from the specified column. If `column` is -1 then no pixbufs will be used,

### gtk.IconView.get_pixbuf_column

        def get_pixbuf_column()

Returns : | The index of a column in the model or -1

### Note

This method is available in PyGTK 2.6 and above.

The `get_pixbuf_column`() returns the value of the "pixbuf-column" property which contains the index of the model column use to to retrieve `gtk.gdk.Pixbuf` objects to display. If the "pixbuf-column" property is -1 no pixbufs will be retrieved.

### gtk.IconView.set_cursor

        def set_cursor(path, cell=None, start_editing=False)

`path` : | a tree path
`cell` : | a `gtk.CellRenderer` or `None`
`start_editing` : | if `True` the specified cell should start being edited

### Note

This method is available in PyGTK 2.8 and above.

The `set_cursor`() method sets the current keyboard focus to be at the location specified by `path`, and selects it. This is useful when you want to focus the user's attention on a particular item. If `cell` is not `None`, then focus is given to the specified cell. Additionally, if `start_editing` is `True`, then editing should be started in the specified cell.

This method is often followed by `gtk.Widget.grab_focus`() in order to give keyboard focus to the icon view. Please note that editing can only happen when the icon view is realized.

`use_align` : | if `True` use the alignment arguments
`row_align` : | the vertical alignment of the item specified by `path`.
`col_align` : | The horizontal alignment of the item specified by `path`.

### Note

This method is available in PyGTK 2.8 and above.

The `scroll_to_path`() method moves the alignments of the icon view to the position specified by `path`. `row_align` determines where the row is placed, and `col_align` determines where column is placed. Both are expected to be between 0.0 and 1.0. 0.0 means left/top alignment, 1.0 means right/bottom alignment, 0.5 means center.

If `use_align` is `False`, then the alignment arguments are ignored, and the icon view does the minimum amount of work to scroll the item onto the screen. This means that the item will be scrolled to the edge closest to its current position. If the item is currently visible on the screen, nothing is done.

This method only works if the model is set, and `path` is a valid row on the model. If the model changes before the icon view is realized, the centered path will be modified to reflect this change.

### gtk.IconView.get_visible_range

`actions` : | the combination of possible GDK Drag Action Constants for a drag from the iconview

### Note

This method is available in PyGTK 2.8 and above.

The `enable_model_drag_source`() method enables the iconview to be used as a drag source for automatic DND. `start_button_mask` specifies a combination of the GDK Modifier Constants that can start the drag. `targets` is a sequence (tuple or list) of 3-tuples each containing target information: a string representing the drag type, target flags (a combination of `gtk.TARGET_SAME_APP` and `gtk.TARGET_SAME_WIDGET` or neither) and an application assigned integer ID used for identification purposes. `actions` is a combination of the GDK Drag Action Constants supported by the iconview.

### gtk.IconView.enable_model_drag_dest

        def enable_model_drag_dest(targets, actions)

`targets` : | a sequence of 3-tuples containing target information that the iconview will support for a drag drop

### Note

This method is available in PyGTK 2.8 and above.

The `enable_model_drag_dest`() method enables the iconview to be a destination for a drag drop. `targets` is a sequence (tuple or list) of 3-tuples each containing target information: a string representing the drag type, target flags (a combination of `gtk.TARGET_SAME_APP` and `gtk.TARGET_SAME_WIDGET` or neither) and an application assigned integer ID used for identification purposes. `actions` is a combination of the GDK Drag Action Constants supported by the iconview.

### gtk.IconView.unset_model_drag_source

        def unset_model_drag_source()

### Note

### gtk.IconView.unset_model_drag_dest

        def unset_model_drag_dest()

### Note

This method is available in PyGTK 2.8 and above.

The `unset_model_drag_dest`() method undoes the effect of the `enable_model_drag_dest`() method.

### gtk.IconView.set_reorderable

        def set_reorderable(reorderable)

`reorderable` : | if `True` the items are reorderable.

### Note

This method is available in PyGTK 2.8 and above.

The `set_reorderable`() method sets the "reorderable" property to the value of `reorderable`. If `reorderable` is `True` the user can reorder the model by dragging and dropping rows. The developer can listen to these changes by connecting to the model's "row_inserted" and "row_deleted" signals.

This method does not give you any degree of control over the order -- any reordering is allowed. If more control is needed, you should probably handle drag and drop manually.

### gtk.IconView.get_reorderable

        def get_reorderable()

Returns : | `True` if the iconview list can be reordered.

### Note

This method is available in PyGTK 2.8 and above.
