Description: Reference for Gdk.PopupLayout.new

### Function

# Gdk PopupLayoutnew

#### Declaration [src]

    GdkPopupLayout*
    gdk_popup_layout_new (
      const GdkRectangle* anchor_rect,
      GdkGravity rect_anchor,
      GdkGravity surface_anchor
    )

#### Description [src]

Create a popup layout description.

Used together with `gdk_popup_present()` to describe how a popup surface should be placed and behave on-screen.

`anchor_rect` is relative to the top-left corner of the surface’s parent. `rect_anchor` and `surface_anchor` determine anchor points on `anchor_rect` and surface to pin together.

The position of `anchor_rect`‘s anchor point can optionally be offset using `gdk_popup_layout_set_offset()`, which is equivalent to offsetting the position of surface.

#### Parameters

`anchor_rect`

  Type: `GdkRectangle`

  The anchor `GdkRectangle` to align `surface` with.

  The data is owned by the caller of the function.

`rect_anchor`

  Type: `GdkGravity`

  The point on `anchor_rect` to align with `surface`‘s anchor point.

`surface_anchor`

  Type: `GdkGravity`

  The point on `surface` to align with `rect`‘s anchor point.

#### Return value

Type: `GdkPopupLayout`

Newly created instance of `GdkPopupLayout`

The caller of the function takes ownership of the data, and is responsible for freeing it.
