## Implemented Interfaces

GimpSizeEntry implements AtkImplementorIface and GtkBuildable.

## Description

This widget is used to enter pixel distances/sizes and resolutions.

You can specify the number of fields the widget should provide. For each field automatic mappings are performed between the field's "reference value" and its "value".

There is a GimpUnitComboBox right of the entry fields which lets you specify the GimpUnit of the displayed values.

For each field, there can be one or two GtkSpinButton's to enter "value" and "reference value". If you specify `show_refval` as FALSE in `gimp_size_entry_new()` there will be only one GtkSpinButton and the GimpUnitComboBox will contain an item for selecting GIMP_UNIT_PIXEL.

The "reference value" is either of GIMP_UNIT_PIXEL or dpi, depending on which GimpSizeEntryUpdatePolicy you specify in `gimp_size_entry_new()`. The "value" is either the size in pixels mapped to the size in a real-world-unit (see GimpUnit) or the dpi value mapped to pixels per real-world-unit.

## Functions

### gimp_size_entry_new ()

    GtkWidget *
    gimp_size_entry_new (gint number_of_fields,
                         GimpUnit unit,
                         const gchar *unit_format,
                         gboolean menu_show_pixels,
                         gboolean menu_show_percent,
                         gboolean show_refval,
                         gint spinbutton_width,
                         GimpSizeEntryUpdatePolicy update_policy);

Creates a new GimpSizeEntry widget.

To have all automatic calculations performed correctly, set up the widget in the following order:

1. gimp_size_entry_new()

2. (for each additional input field) `gimp_size_entry_add_field()`

3. gimp_size_entry_set_unit()

For each input field:

1. gimp_size_entry_set_resolution()

2. gimp_size_entry_set_refval_boundaries() (or `gimp_size_entry_set_value_boundaries()`)

3. gimp_size_entry_set_size()

4. gimp_size_entry_set_refval() (or `gimp_size_entry_set_value()`)

The GimpSizeEntry is derived from GtkTable and will have an empty border of one cell width on each side plus an empty column left of the GimpUnitComboBox to allow the caller to add labels or a GimpChainButton.

#### Parameters

number_of_fields | The number of input fields. |
unit | The initial unit. |
unit_format | A printf-like unit-format string as is used with `gimp_unit_menu_new()`. |
menu_show_pixels | `TRUE` if the unit menu shold contain an item for GIMP_UNIT_PIXEL (ignored if the `update_policy` is not GIMP_SIZE_ENTRY_UPDATE_NONE). |
menu_show_percent | `TRUE` if the unit menu shold contain an item for GIMP_UNIT_PERCENT. |
show_refval | `TRUE` if you want an extra "reference value" spinbutton per input field. |
spinbutton_width | The minimal horizontal size of the GtkSpinButton's. |
update_policy | How the automatic pixel <-> real-world-unit calculations should be done. |

#### Returns

A Pointer to the new GimpSizeEntry widget.

### gimp_size_entry_add_field ()

    void
    gimp_size_entry_add_field (GimpSizeEntry *gse,
                               GtkSpinButton *value_spinbutton,
                               GtkSpinButton *refval_spinbutton);

Adds an input field to the GimpSizeEntry.

The new input field will have the index 0. If you specified `show_refval` as `TRUE` in `gimp_size_entry_new()` you have to pass an additional GtkSpinButton to hold the reference value. If `show_refval` was `FALSE`, `refval_spinbutton` will be ignored.

#### Parameters

gse | The sizeentry you want to add a field to. |
value_spinbutton | The spinbutton to display the field's value. |
refval_spinbutton | The spinbutton to display the field's reference value. |

### gimp_size_entry_attach_label ()

    GtkWidget *
    gimp_size_entry_attach_label (GimpSizeEntry *gse,
                                  const gchar *text,
                                  gint row,
                                  gint column,
                                  gfloat alignment);

Attaches a GtkLabel to the GimpSizeEntry (which is a GtkTable).

#### Parameters

gse | The sizeentry you want to add a label to. |
text | The text of the label. |
row | The row where the label will be attached. |
column | The column where the label will be attached. |
alignment | The horizontal alignment of the label. |

#### Returns

A pointer to the new GtkLabel widget.

### gimp_size_entry_set_resolution ()

    void
    gimp_size_entry_set_resolution (GimpSizeEntry *gse,
                                    gint field,
                                    gdouble resolution,
                                    gboolean keep_size);

Sets the resolution (in dpi) for field # `field` of the GimpSizeEntry.

The `resolution` passed will be clamped to fit in [GIMP_MIN_RESOLUTION..GIMP_MAX_RESOLUTION].

This function does nothing if the GimpSizeEntryUpdatePolicy specified in `gimp_size_entry_new()` doesn't equal to GIMP_SIZE_ENTRY_UPDATE_SIZE.

#### Parameters

gse | The sizeentry you want to set a resolution for. |
field | The index of the field you want to set the resolution for. |
resolution | The new resolution (in dpi) for the chosen `field` . |
keep_size | `TRUE` if the `field` 's size in pixels should stay the same. `FALSE` if the `field` 's size in units should stay the same. |

### gimp_size_entry_set_size ()

    void
    gimp_size_entry_set_size (GimpSizeEntry *gse,
                              gint field,
                              gdouble lower,
                              gdouble upper);

Sets the pixel values for field # `field` of the GimpSizeEntry which will be treated as 0% and 100%.

These values will be used if you specified `menu_show_percent` as `TRUE` in `gimp_size_entry_new()` and the user has selected GIMP_UNIT_PERCENT in the GimpSizeEntry's GimpUnitComboBox.

This function does nothing if the GimpSizeEntryUpdatePolicy specified in `gimp_size_entry_new()` doesn't equal to GIMP_SIZE_ENTRY_UPDATE_SIZE.

#### Parameters

gse | The sizeentry you want to set a size for. |
field | The index of the field you want to set the size for. |
lower | The reference value which will be treated as 0%. |
upper | The reference value which will be treated as 100%. |

### gimp_size_entry_set_value_boundaries ()

    void
    gimp_size_entry_set_value_boundaries (GimpSizeEntry *gse,
                                          gint field,
                                          gdouble lower,
                                          gdouble upper);

Limits the range of possible values which can be entered in field # `field` of the GimpSizeEntry.

The current value of the `field` will be clamped to fit in the `field` 's new boundaries.

NOTE: In most cases you won't be interested in this function because the GimpSizeEntry's purpose is to shield the programmer from unit calculations. Use `gimp_size_entry_set_refval_boundaries()` instead. Whatever you do, don't mix these calls. A size entry should either be clamped by the value or the reference value.

#### Parameters

gse | The sizeentry you want to set value boundaries for. |
field | The index of the field you want to set value boundaries for. |
lower | The new lower boundary of the value of the chosen `field` . |
upper | The new upper boundary of the value of the chosen `field` . |

### gimp_size_entry_get_value ()

    gdouble
    gimp_size_entry_get_value (GimpSizeEntry *gse,
                               gint field);

Returns the value of field # `field` of the GimpSizeEntry.

The `value` returned is a distance or resolution in the GimpUnit the user has selected in the GimpSizeEntry's GimpUnitComboBox.

NOTE: In most cases you won't be interested in this value because the GimpSizeEntry's purpose is to shield the programmer from unit calculations. Use `gimp_size_entry_get_refval()` instead.

#### Parameters

gse | The sizeentry you want to know a value of. |
field | The index of the field you want to know the value of. |

#### Returns

The value of the chosen `field` .

### gimp_size_entry_set_value ()

    void
    gimp_size_entry_set_value (GimpSizeEntry *gse,

                               gdouble value);

Sets the value for field # `field` of the GimpSizeEntry.

The `value` passed is treated to be a distance or resolution in the GimpUnit the user has selected in the GimpSizeEntry's GimpUnitComboBox.

NOTE: In most cases you won't be interested in this value because the GimpSizeEntry's purpose is to shield the programmer from unit calculations. Use `gimp_size_entry_set_refval()` instead.

#### Parameters
