header-bar

AdwHeaderBar is similar to HeaderBar, but provides additional features compared to it. Refer to GtkHeaderBar for details. It is typically used as a top bar within ToolbarView.

Dialog Integration
When placed inside an Dialog, AdwHeaderBar will display the dialog title instead of window title. It will also adjust the decoration layout to ensure it always has a close button and nothing else. Set HeaderBar:show-start-title-buttons and HeaderBar:show-end-title-buttons to FALSE to remove it if it's unwanted.

Navigation View Integration
When placed inside an NavigationPage, AdwHeaderBar will display the page title instead of window title.

When used together with NavigationView or NavigationSplitView, it will also display a back button that can be used to go back to the previous page. The button also has a context menu, allowing to pop multiple pages at once, potentially across multiple navigation views.

Set HeaderBar:show-back-button to FALSE to disable this behavior in rare scenarios where it's unwanted.

Split View Integration
When placed inside NavigationSplitView or OverlaySplitView, AdwHeaderBar will automatically hide the title buttons other than at the edges of the window.

Bottom Sheet Integration
When played inside BottomSheet, AdwHeaderBar will not show the title unless BottomSheet:show-drag-handle is set to FALSE, regardless of HeaderBar:show-title. This only applies to the default title, titles set with HeaderBar:title-widget will still be shown.

Centering Policy
HeaderBar:centering-policy allows to enforce strict centering of the title widget. This can be useful for entries inside Clamp.

Title Buttons
Unlike GtkHeaderBar, AdwHeaderBar allows to toggle title button visibility for each side individually, using the HeaderBar:show-start-title-buttons and HeaderBar:show-end-title-buttons properties.

AdwHeaderBar's CSS node is called headerbar. It contains a windowhandle subnode, which contains a box subnode, which contains three widget subnodes at the start, center and end of the header bar. The start and end subnotes contain a box subnode with the .start and .end style classes respectively, and the center node contains a node that represents the title.

Each of the boxes contains a windowcontrols subnode, see WindowControls for details, as well as other children.

When HeaderBar:show-back-button is TRUE, the start box also contains a node with the name widget that contains a node with the name button and .back style class.

Accessibility
AdwHeaderBar uses the GTK_ACCESSIBLE_ROLE_GROUP role.
