Signals

The default signal is "font-set", emitted when the user selects a font.

The "file-changed" signal is emitted if file-monitor is true and the input file being monitored has changed.

The following signals are connected-up for all widgets:

button-press-event, button-release-event, configure-event, enter-notify-event, leave-notify-event, focus-in-event, focus-out-event, hide, show, realize, key-press-event, key-release-event, map-event, unmap-event

The following functions can be performed upon this widget by any widget capable of emitting signals:

Type	Description	Parameter	Since
enable	Sensitise widget	Variable name

show	Show widget	Variable name
hide	Hide widget	Variable name
activate	Activate widget	Variable name
grabfocus	Grab input focus	Variable name

exit	Exit dialog	A value for the EXIT variable
closewindow	Close dialog	Variable name

Conditions

The following conditions can be used within the condition attribute of action directives:

Type	Description	Argument	Since

visible_is_true(argument)	Visible state of widget	Variable name	0.8.3
visible_is_false(argument)	Visible state of widget	Variable name	0.8.3

true means "true", "yes" or a non-zero value, false means "false", "no" or zero, therefore the shell command is expected to echo one of these values to stdout.
