## Signals

      "path-changed"                                   : Run First
      "writable-changed"                               : Run First

## Description

This widget is used to edit file search paths.

It shows a list of all directories which are in the search path. You can click a directory to select it. The widget provides a GimpFileEntry to change the currently selected directory.

There are buttons to add or delete directories as well as "up" and "down" buttons to change the order in which the directories will be searched.

Whenever the user adds, deletes, changes or reorders a directory of the search path, the "path_changed" signal will be emitted.

## Signal Details

### The `"path-changed"` signal

    void                user_function                      (GimpPathEditor *arg0,
                                                            gpointer        user_data)      : Run First

This signal is emitted whenever the user adds, deletes, modifies or reorders an element of the search path.

`user_data` : | user data set when the signal handler was connected.

### The `"writable-changed"` signal

    void                user_function                      (GimpPathEditor *arg0,
                                                            gpointer        user_data)      : Run First
