Properties:

• public bool active { set; get; }
• public bool draw_as_radio { set; get; }
• public bool inconsistent { set; get; }

Creation methods:

• public CheckMenuItem ()
• public CheckMenuItem.with_label (string label)
• public CheckMenuItem.with_mnemonic (string label)
  Creates a new CheckMenuItem containing a label. The label will be created using Label.with_mnemonic, so underscores in label indicate the mnemonic for the menu item.

Methods:

• public virtual void draw_indicator (Rectangle area)
• public bool get_active ()
  Returns whether the check menu item is active. See set_active.
• public bool get_draw_as_radio ()
  Returns whether check_menu_item looks like a RadioMenuItem
• public bool get_inconsistent ()
  Retrieves the value set by set_inconsistent.
• public void set_active (bool is_active)
• public void set_draw_as_radio (bool draw_as_radio)
  Sets whether check_menu_item is drawn like a RadioMenuItem
• public void set_inconsistent (bool setting)
  If the user has selected a range of elements (such as some text or spreadsheet cells) that are affected by a boolean setting, and the current values in that range are inconsistent, you may want to display the check in an "in between" state. This function turns on "in between" display. Normally you would turn off the inconsistent state again if the user explicitly selects a setting. This has to be done manually, set_inconsistent only affects visual appearance, it doesn't affect the semantics of the widget.

Signals:

• public virtual void toggled ()

Fields:

• public uint always_show_toggle
