gtk-Stock-Items: Stock Items
Description
Prebuilt common menu/toolbar items and corresponding iconsDetailed Description
Stock items represent commonly-used menu or toolbar items such as
"Open" or "Exit". Each stock item is identified by a stock ID;
stock IDs are just strings, but functions such as GTK_STOCK_OPEN are
provided to avoid typing mistakes in the strings.
Applications can register their own stock items in addition to those
built-in to GTK+. Each stock ID can be associated with a GtkStockItem, which contains
the user-visible label, keyboard accelerator, and translation domain
of the menu or toolbar item; and/or with an icon stored in a
GtkIconFactory. See GtkIconFactory for
more information on stock icons. The connection between a
GtkStockItem and stock icons is purely conventional (by virtue of
using the same stock ID); it's possible to register a stock item but
no icon, and vice versa. Stock icons may have a RTL variant which gets
used for right-to-left locales.
