digitalmars.D.learn - GTKD - Attach Button to Grid in specific column and row
Hi, i am wondering why this code doesn't work, even though i set the column and row position of the button it is always placed at the top left (so basically first row and first column): this(int width, int height, string title){ super(title); setDefaultSize(width,height); Button btn = new Button(); btn.setSizeRequest(25,25); btn.setLabel("Exit"); auto call = &enterEvent; btn.addOnEnterNotify(call); btn.addOnLeaveNotify(call); Grid grid = new Grid(); grid.setColumnSpacing(6); grid.setRowSpacing(6); grid.attach(btn,3,3,1,1); add(grid); showAll(); }

Code ...The way GTK manages width and height, usually widgets are given the minimum size they need. So when the button is the only widget in the grid the other rows and columns have a height/width of 0. You can force the button / gird cell to the bottom left by setting the expand and alignment properties of the button. this(int width, int height, string title){ super(title); setDefaultSize(width,height); Button btn = new Button(); btn.setSizeRequest(25,25); btn.setLabel("Exit"); btn.setVexpand(true); btn.setHexpand(true); btn.setHalign(Align.END); btn.setValign(Align.END); auto call = &enterEvent; btn.addOnEnterNotify(call); btn.addOnLeaveNotify(call); Grid grid = new Grid(); grid.setColumnSpacing(6); grid.setRowSpacing(6); grid.attach(btn,3,3,1,1); add(grid); showAll(); } -- Mike Wey
