This should only be used for special-purpose toolbars, normal application toolbars should respect the user preferences for the size of icons.

Since gtkmm 2.12:

Parameters:

  icon_size | The Gtk::IconSize that stock icons in the toolbar shall have.

Parameters:

  show_arrow | Whether to show an overflow menu.

void Gtk::Toolbar::set_toolbar_style | ( | ToolbarStyle | style | ) |

Alters the view of toolbar to display either icons only, text only, or both.

Glib::SignalProxy3< bool,int,int,int > Gtk::Toolbar::signal_popup_context_menu | ( |  | ) |

Emitted when the user right-clicks the toolbar or uses the keybinding to display a popup menu.

Application developers should handle this signal if they want to display a context menu on the toolbar. The context-menu should appear at the coordinates given by x and y. The mouse button number is given by the button parameter. If the menu was popped up using the keybaord, button is -1.

Parameters:

  x | The x coordinate of the point where the menu should appear.
