## Detailed Description

Defines accelerator key combinations.

For instance, pressing Control-Q to activate the File|Quit menu item. Typedefed as Gtk::Menu::AccelKey

By defining accelerator paths you can allow the user of your application to change accelerators himself. An example of an accelerator might be "<MainWindow>/File/Open". Modified accelerators may be saved

Gtk::AccelKey::AccelKey | ( |  | ) |

Gtk::AccelKey::AccelKey | ( | guint | accel_key,
|  | Gdk::ModifierType | accel_mods,
|  | const Glib::ustring & | accel_path = `""`
| ) |  |

AccelKey constructor.

Parameters:

  accel_key | For instance, 'q'
  accel_mods | For instance, Gdk::CONTROL_MASK
  accel_path | For instance, "<MainWindow>/File/Open"

Gtk::AccelKey::AccelKey | ( | const Glib::ustring & | accelerator,
|  | const Glib::ustring & | accel_path = `Glib::ustring()`
| ) |  |

AccelKey constructor.

Parameters:

  accelerator | For instance, "<control>q" - Use <control>, <shift>, <alt> and <release>. Use F1, F2, etc, for function keys.
  accel_path | For instance, "<MainWindow>/File/Open"
