Detailed Description

Context popup widget.

ctxpopup_inheritance_tree.png
preview-00.png

A ctxpopup is a widget that, when shown, pops up a list of items. It automatically chooses an area inside its parent object's view (set via elm_ctxpopup_add() and elm_ctxpopup_hover_parent_set()) to optimally fit into it. In the default theme, it will also point an arrow to it's top left position at the time one shows it. Ctxpopup items have a label and/or an icon. It is intended for a small number of items (hence the use of list, not genlist).

This widget inherits from the Layout one, so that all the functions acting on it also work for context popup objects (since 1.8).

This widget emits the following signals, besides the ones sent from Layout:

  1. the parent object is resized due to the window rotation. Then ctxpopup is dismissed.

Default content parts of the ctxpopup widget that you can use for are:

Default content parts of the ctxpopup items that you can use for are:

Default text parts of the ctxpopup items that you can use for are:

Supported elm_object common APIs.

Supported elm_object_item common APIs.

Ctxpopup example shows the usage of a good deal of the API.

)

Set ctxpopup auto hide mode triggered by ctxpopup policy.

Use this function when user wants ctxpopup not to hide automatically.
