## Description

GtkStyleContext is an object that stores styling information affecting a widget defined by GtkWidgetPath.

In order to construct the final style information, GtkStyleContext queries information from all attached GtkStyleProviders. Style providers can be either attached explicitly to the context through `gtk_style_context_add_provider()`, or to the screen through `gtk_style_context_add_provider_for_screen()`. The resulting style is a combination of all providers' information in priority order.

For GTK+ widgets, any GtkStyleContext returned by `gtk_widget_get_style_context()` will already have a GtkWidgetPath, a GdkScreen and RTL/LTR information set. The style context will be also updated automatically if any of these settings change on the widget.

If you are using the theming layer standalone, you will need to set a widget path and a screen yourself to the created style context through `gtk_style_context_set_path()` and `gtk_style_context_set_screen()`, as well as updating the context yourself using `gtk_style_context_invalidate()` whenever any of the conditions change, such as a change in the "gtk-theme-name" setting or a hierarchy change in the rendered widget.

### Transition animations

GtkStyleContext has built-in support for state change transitions. Note that these animations respect the "gtk-enable-animations" setting.

For simple widgets where state changes affect the whole widget area, calling `gtk_style_context_notify_state_change()` with a `NULL` region is sufficient to trigger the transition animation. And GTK+ already does that when `gtk_widget_set_state()` or `gtk_widget_set_state_flags()` are called.

If a widget needs to declare several animatable regions (i.e. not affecting the whole widget area), its "draw" signal handler needs to wrap the render operations for the different regions with calls to `gtk_style_context_push_animatable_region()` and `gtk_style_context_pop_animatable_region()`. These functions take an identifier for the region which must be unique within the style context. For simple widgets with a fixed set of animatable regions, using an enumeration works well:

    spin_button_draw (GtkWidget *widget,
                      cairo_t   *cr)
    {
      GtkStyleContext *context;

      context = gtk_widget_get_style_context (widget);

      gtk_style_context_push_animatable_region (context,
                                                GUINT_TO_POINTER (REGION_ENTRY));

      gtk_render_background (cr, 0, 0, 100, 30);

      gtk_style_context_pop_animatable_region (context);

      ...
    }

For complex widgets with an arbitrary number of animatable regions, it is up to the implementation to come up with a way to uniquely identify each animatable region. Using pointers to internal structs is one way to achieve this:

                       cairo_t      *cr)
    {
      gtk_style_context_push_animatable_region (context, page);
      gtk_render_extension (cr, page->x, page->y, page->width, page->height);
      gtk_style_context_pop_animatable_region (context);
    }

The widget also needs to notify the style context about a state change for a given animatable region so the animation is triggered.

    notebook_motion_notify (GtkWidget      *widget,
                            GdkEventMotion *event)
    {
      GtkStyleContext *context;
      NotebookPage *page;

      context = gtk_widget_get_style_context (widget);
      page = find_page_under_pointer (widget, event);
      gtk_style_context_notify_state_change (context,
                                             gtk_widget_get_window (widget),
                                             page,
                                             GTK_STATE_PRELIGHT,
                                             TRUE);
      ...
    }

`gtk_style_context_notify_state_change()` accepts `NULL` region IDs as a special value, in this case, the whole widget area will be updated by the animation.

### Style classes and regions

Widgets can add style classes to their context, which can be used to associate different styles by class (see the section called “Selectors”). Theme engines can also use style classes to vary their rendering. GTK+ has a number of predefined style classes: GTK_STYLE_CLASS_CELL, GTK_STYLE_CLASS_ENTRY, GTK_STYLE_CLASS_BUTTON, GTK_STYLE_CLASS_COMBOBOX_ENTRY, GTK_STYLE_CLASS_CALENDAR, GTK_STYLE_CLASS_SLIDER, GTK_STYLE_CLASS_BACKGROUND, GTK_STYLE_CLASS_RUBBERBAND, GTK_STYLE_CLASS_TOOLTIP, GTK_STYLE_CLASS_MENU, GTK_STYLE_CLASS_MENUBAR, GTK_STYLE_CLASS_MENUITEM, GTK_STYLE_CLASS_TOOLBAR, GTK_STYLE_CLASS_PRIMARY_TOOLBAR, GTK_STYLE_CLASS_INLINE_TOOLBAR, GTK_STYLE_CLASS_RADIO, GTK_STYLE_CLASS_CHECK, GTK_STYLE_CLASS_TROUGH, GTK_STYLE_CLASS_SCROLLBAR, GTK_STYLE_CLASS_SCALE, GTK_STYLE_CLASS_SCALE_HAS_MARKS_ABOVE, GTK_STYLE_CLASS_SCALE_HAS_MARKS_BELOW, GTK_STYLE_CLASS_HEADER, GTK_STYLE_CLASS_ACCELERATOR, GTK_STYLE_CLASS_GRIP, GTK_STYLE_CLASS_DOCK, GTK_STYLE_CLASS_PROGRESSBAR, GTK_STYLE_CLASS_SPINNER, GTK_STYLE_CLASS_EXPANDER, GTK_STYLE_CLASS_SPINBUTTON, GTK_STYLE_CLASS_NOTEBOOK, GTK_STYLE_CLASS_VIEW, GTK_STYLE_CLASS_SIDEBAR, GTK_STYLE_CLASS_IMAGE, GTK_STYLE_CLASS_HIGHLIGHT, GTK_STYLE_CLASS_FRAME, GTK_STYLE_CLASS_DND, GTK_STYLE_CLASS_PANE_SEPARATOR, GTK_STYLE_CLASS_SEPARATOR, GTK_STYLE_CLASS_INFO, GTK_STYLE_CLASS_WARNING, GTK_STYLE_CLASS_QUESTION, GTK_STYLE_CLASS_ERROR, GTK_STYLE_CLASS_HORIZONTAL, GTK_STYLE_CLASS_VERTICAL, GTK_STYLE_CLASS_TOP, GTK_STYLE_CLASS_BOTTOM, GTK_STYLE_CLASS_LEFT, GTK_STYLE_CLASS_RIGHT,

Widgets can also add regions with flags to their context. The regions used by GTK+ widgets are:

Region | Flags | Macro | Used by
--- | --- | --- | ---
row | even, odd | GTK_STYLE_REGION_ROW | GtkTreeView
column | first, last, sorted | GTK_STYLE_REGION_COLUMN | GtkTreeView
column-header |  | GTK_STYLE_REGION_COLUMN_HEADER |
tab | even, odd, first, last | GTK_STYLE_REGION_TAB | GtkNotebook

### Custom styling in UI libraries and applications

If you are developing a library with custom GtkWidgets that render differently than standard components, you may need to add a GtkStyleProvider yourself with the `GTK_STYLE_PROVIDER_PRIORITY_FALLBACK` priority, either a GtkCssProvider or a custom object implementing the GtkStyleProvider interface. This way theming engines may still attempt to style your UI elements in a different way if needed so.

If you are using custom styling on an applications, you probably want then to make your style information prevail to the theme's, so you must use a GtkStyleProvider with the `GTK_STYLE_PROVIDER_PRIORITY_APPLICATION` priority, keep in mind that the user settings in ``XDG_CONFIG_HOME`/gtk-3.0/gtk.css` will still take precedence over your changes, as it uses the `GTK_STYLE_PROVIDER_PRIORITY_USER` priority.

If a custom theming engine is needed, you probably want to implement a GtkStyleProvider yourself so it points to your GtkThemingEngine implementation, as GtkCssProvider uses `gtk_theming_engine_load()` which loads the theming engine module from the standard paths.

## Details

### GTK_STYLE_PROPERTY_BACKGROUND_COLOR

    #define GTK_STYLE_PROPERTY_BACKGROUND_COLOR "background-color"

A property holding the background color of rendered elements as a GdkRGBA.

    GtkStyleContext *   gtk_style_context_new               (void);

Creates a standalone GtkStyleContext, this style context won't be attached to any widget, so you may want to call `gtk_style_context_set_path()` yourself.

### Note

This function is only useful when using the theming layer separated from GTK+, if you are using GtkStyleContext to theme GtkWidgets, use `gtk_widget_get_style_context()` in order to get a style context ready to theme the widget.

Returns : | A newly created GtkStyleContext.

### gtk_style_context_add_provider ()

    void                gtk_style_context_add_provider      (GtkStyleContext *context,

                                                             guint priority);

Adds a style provider to `context`, to be used in style construction. Note that a style provider added by this function only affects the style of the widget to which `context` belongs. If you want to affect the style of all widgets, use `gtk_style_context_add_provider_for_screen()`.

### Note

If both priorities are the same, A GtkStyleProvider added through this function takes precedence over another added through `gtk_style_context_add_provider_for_screen()`.

`context` : | a GtkStyleContext
`provider` : | a GtkStyleProvider
`priority` : | the priority of the style provider. The lower it is, the earlier it will be used in the style construction. Typically this will be in the range between `GTK_STYLE_PROVIDER_PRIORITY_FALLBACK` and `GTK_STYLE_PROVIDER_PRIORITY_USER`

Since 3.0

### gtk_style_context_add_provider_for_screen ()

    void                gtk_style_context_add_provider_for_screen

Adds a global style provider to `screen`, which will be used in style construction for all GtkStyleContexts under `screen`.

GTK+ uses this to make styling information from GtkSettings available.

### Note

If both priorities are the same, A GtkStyleProvider added through `gtk_style_context_add_provider()` takes precedence over another added through this function.

`screen` : | a GdkScreen
`provider` : | a GtkStyleProvider
`priority` : | the priority of the style provider. The lower it is, the earlier it will be used in the style construction. Typically this will be in the range between `GTK_STYLE_PROVIDER_PRIORITY_FALLBACK` and `GTK_STYLE_PROVIDER_PRIORITY_USER`

Since 3.0

### gtk_style_context_get ()

### Warning

`gtk_style_context_state_is_running` has been deprecated since version 3.6 and should not be used in newly-written code. This function always returns `FALSE`

Returns `TRUE` if there is a transition animation running for the current region (see `gtk_style_context_push_animatable_region()`).

If `progress` is not `NULL`, the animation progress will be returned there, 0.0 means the state is closest to being unset, while 1.0 means it's closest to being set. This means transition animation will run from 0 to 1 when `state` is being set and from 1 to 0 when it's being unset.

### Warning

`gtk_style_context_notify_state_change` has been deprecated since version 3.6 and should not be used in newly-written code. This function does nothing.

Notifies a state change on `context`, so if the current style makes use of transition animations, one will be started so all rendered elements under `region_id` are animated for state `state` being set to value `state_value`.

The `window` parameter is used in order to invalidate the rendered area as the animation runs, so make sure it is the same window that is being rendered on by the gtk_render_*() functions.

If `region_id` is `NULL`, all rendered elements using `context` will be affected by this state transition.

As a practical example, a GtkButton notifying a state transition on the prelight state:

    gtk_style_context_notify_state_change (context,
                                           gtk_widget_get_window (widget),
                                           NULL,
                                           GTK_STATE_PRELIGHT,
                                           button->in_button);

Can be handled in the CSS file like this:

    GtkButton {
        background-color: #f00
    }

    GtkButton:hover {
        background-color: #fff;
        transition: 200ms linear
    }

This combination will animate the button background from red to white if a pointer enters the button, and back to red if the pointer leaves the button.

Note that `state` is used when finding the transition parameters, which is why the style places the transition under the :hover pseudo-class.

### Warning

`gtk_style_context_push_animatable_region` has been deprecated since version 3.6 and should not be used in newly-written code. This function does nothing.

Pushes an animatable region, so all further gtk_render_*() calls between this call and the following `gtk_style_context_pop_animatable_region()` will potentially show transition animations for this region if `gtk_style_context_notify_state_change()` is called for a given state, and the current theme/style defines transition animations for state changes.

The `region_id` used must be unique in `context` so the theming engine can uniquely identify rendered elements subject to a state transition.

### Warning

`gtk_style_context_cancel_animations` has been deprecated since version 3.6 and should not be used in newly-written code. This function does nothing.

Stops all running animations for `region_id` and all animatable regions underneath.

A `NULL` `region_id` will stop all ongoing animations in `context`, when dealing with a GtkStyleContext obtained through `gtk_widget_get_style_context()`, this is normally done for you in all circumstances you would expect all widget to be stopped, so this should be only used in complex widgets with different animatable regions.

`context` : | a GtkStyleContext

### Warning

`gtk_style_context_scroll_animations` has been deprecated since version 3.6 and should not be used in newly-written code. This function does nothing.

This function is analogous to `gdk_window_scroll()`, and should be called together with it so the invalidation areas for any ongoing animation are scrolled together with it.

Sets the parent style context for `context`. The parent style context is used to implement inheritance of properties.

If you are using a GtkStyleContext returned from `gtk_widget_get_style_context()`, the parent will be set for you.

`context` : | a GtkStyleContext
`parent` : | the new parent or `NULL`. [allow-none]

Adds a style class to `context`, so posterior calls to `gtk_style_context_get()` or any of the gtk_render_*() functions will make use of this new class for styling.

In the CSS file format, a GtkEntry defining an "entry" class, would be matched by:

    GtkEntry.entry { ... }

While any widget defining an "entry" class would be matched by:

    .entry { ... }

Adds a region to `context`, so posterior calls to `gtk_style_context_get()` or any of the gtk_render_*() functions will make use of this new region for styling.

In the CSS file format, a GtkTreeView defining a "row" region, would be matched by:

    GtkTreeView row { ... }

Pseudo-classes are used for matching `flags`, so the two following rules:

    GtkTreeView row:nth-child(even) { ... }
    GtkTreeView row:nth-child(odd) { ... }

would apply to even and odd rows, respectively.

### Note

Region names must only contain lowercase letters and '-', starting always with a lowercase letter.
