Gtk.ShortcutsSection
Description: Reference for Gtk.ShortcutsSection

### Class

# GtkShortcutsSection

deprecated: 4.18

#### Description [src]

    final class Gtk.ShortcutsSection : Gtk.Box
      implements Gtk.Accessible, Gtk.Buildable, Gtk.ConstraintTarget, Gtk.Orientable {
      /* No available fields */
    }

A `GtkShortcutsSection` collects all the keyboard shortcuts and gestures for a major application mode.

If your application needs multiple sections, you should give each section a unique `GtkShortcutsSection:section-name` and a `GtkShortcutsSection:title` that can be shown in the section selector of the `GtkShortcutsWindow`.

The `GtkShortcutsSection:max-height` property can be used to influence how the groups in the section are distributed over pages and columns.

This widget is only meant to be used with `GtkShortcutsWindow`.

The recommended way to construct a `GtkShortcutsSection` is with `GtkBuilder`, by using the `<child>` tag to populate a `GtkShortcutsSection` with one or more `GtkShortcutsGroup` instances, which in turn contain one or more `GtkShortcutsShortcut` objects.

If you need to add a group programmatically, use `gtk_shortcuts_section_add_group()`.

# Shortcuts and Gestures

Pan gestures allow to navigate between sections.

The following signals have default keybindings:

- `GtkShortcutsSection::change-current-page`.
