The GtkAccelLabel widget is a subclass of GtkLabel that also displays an accelerator key on the right of the label text, e.g. 'Ctl+S'. It is commonly used in menus to show the keyboard short-cuts for commands.
The accelerator key to display is not set explicitly.
Instead, the GtkAccelLabel displays the accelerators which have been added to
a particular widget. This widget is set by calling
gtk_accel_label_set_accel_widget()
.
For example, a GtkMenuItem widget may have an accelerator added to emit the
"activate" signal when the 'Ctl+S' key combination is pressed.
A GtkAccelLabel is created and added to the GtkMenuItem, and
gtk_accel_label_set_accel_widget()
is called with the GtkMenuItem as the
second argument. The GtkAccelLabel will now display 'Ctl+S' after its label.
Note that creating a GtkMenuItem with gtk_menu_item_new_with_label()
(or
one of the similar functions for GtkCheckMenuItem and GtkRadioMenuItem)
automatically adds a GtkAccelLabel to the GtkMenuItem and calls
gtk_accel_label_set_accel_widget()
to set it up for you.
A GtkAccelLabel will only display accelerators which have GTK_ACCEL_VISIBLE
set (see GtkAccelFlags).
A GtkAccelLabel can display multiple accelerators and even signal names,
though it is almost always used to display just one accelerator key.
Example 4. Creating a simple menu item with an accelerator key.

GtkWidget *
gtk_accel_label_new (const gchar *string
);
Creates a new GtkAccelLabel.
void gtk_accel_label_set_accel_closure (GtkAccelLabel *accel_label
,GClosure *accel_closure
);
Sets the closure to be monitored by this accelerator label. The closure
must be connected to an accelerator group; see gtk_accel_group_connect()
.
GtkWidget *
gtk_accel_label_get_accel_widget (GtkAccelLabel *accel_label
);
Fetches the widget monitored by this accelerator label. See
gtk_accel_label_set_accel_widget()
.
void gtk_accel_label_set_accel_widget (GtkAccelLabel *accel_label
,GtkWidget *accel_widget
);
Sets the widget to be monitored by this accelerator label.
guint
gtk_accel_label_get_accel_width (GtkAccelLabel *accel_label
);
Returns the width needed to display the accelerator key(s). This is used by menus to align all of the GtkMenuItem widgets, and shouldn't be needed by applications.
gboolean
gtk_accel_label_refetch (GtkAccelLabel *accel_label
);
Recreates the string representing the accelerator keys. This should not be needed since the string is automatically updated whenever accelerators are added or removed from the associated widget.
struct GtkAccelLabel;
The GtkAccelLabel struct contains private data only, and should be accessed using the functions below.
“accel-closure”
property “accel-closure” GClosure *
The closure to be monitored for accelerator changes.

“accel-widget”
property“accel-widget” GtkWidget *
