GtkSearchBar is a container made to have a search entry.

It can also contain additional widgets, such as drop-down menus, or buttons. The search bar would appear when a search is started through typing on the keyboard, or the application’s search mode is toggled on.

For keyboard presses to start a search, the search bar must be told of a widget to capture key events from through setKeyCaptureWidget(org.gnome.gtk.Widget). This widget will typically be the top-level window, or a parent container of the search bar. Common shortcuts such as Ctrl+F should be handled as an application action, or through the menu items.

You will also need to tell the search bar about which entry you are using as your search entry using connectEntry(org.gnome.gtk.Editable).

Creating a search bar
The following example shows you how to create a more complex search entry.

A simple example

Shortcuts and Gestures
GtkSearchBar supports the following keyboard shortcuts:

• Escape hides the search bar.

CSS nodes

 searchbar
 ╰── revealer
     ╰── box
          ├── [child]
          ╰── [button.close]
 

GtkSearchBar has a main CSS node with name searchbar. It has a child node with name revealer that contains a node with name box. The box node contains both the CSS node of the child widget as well as an optional button node which gets the .close style class applied.

Accessibility
GtkSearchBar uses the AccessibleRole.SEARCH role.

Constructor Details

SearchBar

public SearchBar(MemorySegment address)

Create a SearchBar proxy instance for the provided memory address.

Parameters:

address - the memory address of the native object

SearchBar

public SearchBar()

Creates a GtkSearchBar.

You will need to tell it about which widget is going to be your text entry using connectEntry(org.gnome.gtk.Editable).

Method Details

getType

public static Type getType()

Get the GType of the SearchBar class

Returns:

the GType

asParent

protected SearchBar asParent()

Returns this instance as if it were its parent type. This is mostly synonymous to the Java super keyword, but will set the native typeclass function pointers to the parent type. When overriding a native virtual method in Java, "chaining up" with super.methodName() doesn't work, because it invokes the overridden function pointer again. To chain up, call asParent().methodName(). This will call the native function pointer of this virtual method in the typeclass of the parent type.

Overrides:

asParent in class Widget

connectEntry

public void connectEntry(Editable entry)

Connects the GtkEditable widget passed as the one to be used in this search bar.

The entry should be a descendant of the search bar. Calling this function manually is only required if the entry isn’t the direct child of the search bar (as in our main example).

Parameters:

entry - a GtkEditable

getChild

public Widget getChild()

Gets the child widget of this SearchBar.

Returns:

the child widget of this SearchBar

getKeyCaptureWidget

public Widget getKeyCaptureWidget()

Gets the widget that this SearchBar is capturing key events from.

Returns:

The key capture widget.

getSearchMode

public boolean getSearchMode()

Returns whether the search mode is on or off.

Returns:

whether search mode is toggled on

getShowCloseButton

public boolean getShowCloseButton()

Returns whether the close button is shown.

Returns:

whether the close button is shown

setChild

public void setChild(@Nullable
 @Nullable Widget child)

Sets the child widget of this SearchBar.

Parameters:

child - the child widget

setKeyCaptureWidget

public void setKeyCaptureWidget(@Nullable
 @Nullable Widget widget)

Sets widget as the widget that this SearchBar will capture key events from.

If key events are handled by the search bar, the bar will be shown, and the entry populated with the entered text.

Note that despite the name of this function, the events are only 'captured' in the bubble phase, which means that editable child widgets of widget will receive text input before it gets captured. If that is not desired, you can capture and forward the events yourself with EventControllerKey.forward(org.gnome.gtk.Widget).

Parameters:

widget - a GtkWidget

setSearchMode

public void setSearchMode(boolean searchMode)

Switches the search mode on or off.

Parameters:

searchMode - the new state of the search mode

setShowCloseButton

public void setShowCloseButton(boolean visible)

Shows or hides the close button.

Applications that already have a “search” toggle button should not show a close button in their search bar, as it duplicates the role of the toggle button.

Parameters:

visible - whether the close button will be shown or not

builder

public static SearchBar.Builder<? extends SearchBar.Builder> builder()

A SearchBar.Builder object constructs a SearchBar with the specified properties. Use the various set...() methods to set properties, and finish construction with SearchBar.Builder.build().
