## Detailed Description

A base class for widgets with alignments and padding.

This is an abstract for a set of utility widgets that lack a physical window. They do have alignment and padding within their defined space.

Without a window, widgets of this type cannot capture events. To capture events place in Gtk::EventBox.

## Member Function Documentation

void Gtk::Misc::get_alignment | ( | float & | xalign,
|  | float & | yalign |
| ) |  |  | const

Gets the X and Y alignment of the widget within its allocation.

See set_alignment().

Parameters:

  | xalign | Location to store X alignment of misc, or `0`.
  | yalign | Location to store Y alignment of misc, or `0`.

void Gtk::Misc::get_padding | ( | int & | xpad,
|  | int & | ypad |
| ) |  |  | const

Gets the padding in the X and Y directions of the widget.

See set_padding().

Parameters:

  | xpad | Location to store padding in the X direction, or `0`.
  | ypad | Location to store padding in the Y direction, or `0`.

const GtkMisc* Gtk::Misc::gobj | ( |  | ) | const`[inline]`

Provides access to the underlying C GtkObject.

Reimplemented from Gtk::Widget.

Reimplemented in Gtk::AccelLabel, Gtk::Arrow, Gtk::Image, and Gtk::Label.

GtkMisc* Gtk::Misc::gobj | ( |  | ) | `[inline]`

Provides access to the underlying C GtkObject.

Reimplemented from Gtk::Widget.

Glib::PropertyProxy_ReadOnly<float> Gtk::Misc::property_xalign | ( |  | ) | const

The horizontal alignment.

You rarely need to use properties because there are get_ and set_ methods for almost all of them.

Returns:
  A PropertyProxy that allows you to get or set the property of the value, or receive notification when the value of the property changes.

Glib::PropertyProxy<float> Gtk::Misc::property_xalign | ( |  | ) |

The horizontal alignment.

You rarely need to use properties because there are get_ and set_ methods for almost all of them.

Returns:
  A PropertyProxy that allows you to get or set the property of the value, or receive notification when the value of the property changes.

Glib::PropertyProxy_ReadOnly<int> Gtk::Misc::property_xpad | ( |  | ) | const

The amount of space to add on the left and right of the widget.

You rarely need to use properties because there are get_ and set_ methods for almost all of them.

Returns:
  A PropertyProxy that allows you to get or set the property of the value, or receive notification when the value of the property changes.

Parameters:

  | object | The C instance.
  | take_copy | False if the result should take ownership of the C instance. True if it should take a new copy or ref.

Returns:
  A C++ instance that wraps this C instance.
