gtk.IconInfo.copy

    def copy()

The copy() method returns a copy of the icon info object.

gtk.IconInfo.free

    def free()

The free() method frees the icon info and its associated information

gtk.IconInfo.get_base_size

    def get_base_size()

The get_base_size() method returns the base size for the icon. The base size is a size for the icon that was specified by the icon theme creator. This may be different than the actual size of image; an example of this is small emblem icons that can be attached to a larger icon. These icons will be given the same base size as the larger icons to which they are attached.

gtk.IconInfo.get_filename

    def get_filename()

The get_filename() method returns the filename for the icon. If the gtk.ICON_LOOKUP_USE_BUILTIN flag was passed to the gtk.IconTheme.lookup_icon() method, there may be no filename if a builtin icon is returned. In this case, you should use the get_builtin_pixbuf() method.

gtk.IconInfo.get_builtin_pixbuf

    def get_builtin_pixbuf()

The get_builtin_pixbuf() method returns the built-in image for this icon, if any. To allow GTK+ to use built in icon images, you must pass the gtk.ICON_LOOKUP_USE_BUILTIN to the gtk.IconTheme.lookup_icon() method.

gtk.IconInfo.load_icon

    def load_icon()

The load_icon() method renders the icon previously looked up in an icon theme using the gtk.IconTheme.lookup_icon() method. The icon size will be based on the size passed to the gtk.IconTheme.lookup_icon() method. Note that the resulting gtk.gdk.Pixbuf may not be exactly this size. An icon theme may have icons that differ slightly from their nominal sizes, and in addition GTK+ will avoid scaling icons that it considers sufficiently close to the requested size to maintain sharpness.

This method raise the GError exception if an error occurs during rendering of the icon.

gtk.IconInfo.set_raw_coordinates

    def set_raw_coordinates(raw_coordinates)

The set_raw_coordinates() method sets the internal raw_coordinates flag to the value of raw_coordinates. If raw_coordinates is TRUE, the coordinates returned by the get_embedded_rect() and get_attach_points() methods will be returned in their original form as specified in the icon theme, instead of scaled appropriately for the pixbuf returned by the load_icon() method.

Raw coordinates are somewhat strange; they are specified to be with respect to the unscaled pixmap for PNG and XPM icons, but for SVG icons, they are in a 1000x1000 coordinate space that is scaled to the final size of the icon. You can determine if the icon is an SVG icon by using the get_filename() method, and seeing if it is not None and ends in '.svg'.

This method is provided primarily to allow compatibility wrappers for older API's, and is not expected to be useful for applications.

gtk.IconInfo.get_embedded_rect

    def get_embedded_rect()

The get_embedded_rect() method returns a gtk.gdk.Rectangle containing the coordinates of a rectangle within the icon that can be used for display of information such as a preview of the contents of a text file. See the set_raw_coordinates() method for further information about the coordinate system.

gtk.IconInfo.get_attach_points

    def get_attach_points()

The get_attach_points() method returns a tuple containing the attach points for an icon as a set of 2-tuples. An attach point is a location in the icon that can be used as anchor points for attaching emblems or overlays to the icon.

gtk.IconInfo.get_display_name

    def get_display_name()

The get_display_name() method returns the display name for an icon. A display name is a string to be used in place of the icon name in a user visible context like a list of icons.
