## Description

GtkSettings provide a mechanism to share global settings between applications. On the X window system, this sharing is realized by an XSettings manager that is usually part of the desktop environment, along with utilities that let the user change these settings. In the absence of an Xsettings manager, settings can also be specified in RC files.

Applications can override system-wide settings with `gtk_settings_set_string_property()`, `gtk_settings_set_long_property()`, etc. This should be restricted to special cases though; GtkSettings are not meant as an application configuration facility. When doing so, you need to be aware that settings that are specific to individual widgets may not be available before the widget type has been realized at least once. The following example demonstrates a way to do this:

    1
    2
    3
    4

    gtk_init (&argc, &argv);
    /* make sure the type is realized */
    g_type_class_unref (g_type_class_ref (GTK_TYPE_IMAGE_MENU_ITEM));
    g_object_set (gtk_settings_get_default (), "gtk-menu-images", FALSE, NULL);

There is one GtkSettings instance per screen. It can be obtained with `gtk_settings_get_for_screen()`, but in many cases, it is more convenient to use `gtk_widget_get_settings()`. `gtk_settings_get_default()` returns the GtkSettings instance for the default screen.

## Details

### GtkSettings

    typedef struct _GtkSettings GtkSettings;

### GtkSettingsValue

    typedef struct {
      /* origin should be something like "filename:linenumber" for rc files,
       * or e.g. "XProperty" for other sources
       */
      gchar *origin;

      /* valid types are LONG, DOUBLE and STRING corresponding to the token parsed,
       * or a GSTRING holding an unparsed statement
       */
      GValue value;
    } GtkSettingsValue;

### gtk_settings_get_default ()

    GtkSettings*        gtk_settings_get_default            (void);

Gets the GtkSettings object for the default GDK screen, creating it if necessary. See `gtk_settings_get_for_screen()`.

Returns : | a GtkSettings object. If there is no default screen, then returns `NULL`.. transfer none.

### gtk_settings_get_for_screen ()

    GtkSettings*        gtk_settings_get_for_screen         (GdkScreen *screen);

Gets the GtkSettings object for `screen`, creating it if necessary.

`screen` : | a GdkScreen.
Returns : | a GtkSettings object.

Since 2.2

A GtkRcPropertyParser for use with `gtk_settings_install_property_parser()` or `gtk_widget_class_install_style_property_parser()` which parses a color given either by its name or in the form `{ red, green, blue }` where `red`, `green` and `blue` are integers between 0 and 65535 or floating-point numbers between 0 and 1.

`pspec` : | a GParamSpec
`gstring` : | the GString to be parsed
`property_value` : | a GValue which must hold GdkColor values.
Returns : | `TRUE` if `gstring` could be parsed and `property_value` has been set to the resulting GdkColor.

### gtk_rc_property_parse_enum ()

    gboolean            gtk_rc_property_parse_enum          (const GParamSpec *pspec,

A GtkRcPropertyParser for use with `gtk_settings_install_property_parser()` or `gtk_widget_class_install_style_property_parser()` which parses a single enumeration value.

The enumeration value can be specified by its name, its nickname or its numeric value. For consistency with flags parsing, the value may be surrounded by parentheses.

`pspec` : | a GParamSpec
`gstring` : | the GString to be parsed
`property_value` : | a GValue which must hold enum values.
Returns : | `TRUE` if `gstring` could be parsed and `property_value` has been set to the resulting GEnumValue.

A GtkRcPropertyParser for use with `gtk_settings_install_property_parser()` or `gtk_widget_class_install_style_property_parser()` which parses flags.

Flags can be specified by their name, their nickname or numerically. Multiple flags can be specified in the form `"( flag1 | flag2 | ... )"`.

`pspec` : | a GParamSpec
`gstring` : | the GString to be parsed
`property_value` : | a GValue which must hold flags values.
