Determines the destination item for a given position.
Gets information about the item that is highlighted for feedback.
Gets the path and cell for the icon at the given position.
Gets the column in which the item path is currently displayed. Column numbers start at 0.

Retrieves whether the user can reorder the list via drag-and-drop. See gtk.icon_view.IconView.setReorderable.
Returns the value of the ::row-spacing property.
Creates a list of paths of all selected items. Additionally, if you are planning on modifying the model after calling this function, you may want to convert the returned list into a list of GtkTreeRowReferences. To do this, you can use gtk.tree_row_reference.TreeRowReference.new_.
Gets the selection mode of the icon_view.
Returns the value of the ::spacing property.
Returns the column with text for icon_view.
Returns the column of icon_view’s model which is being used for displaying tooltips on icon_view’s rows.
This function is supposed to be used in a GtkWidget::query-tooltip signal handler for gtk.icon_view.IconView. The x, y and keyboard_tip values which are received in the signal handler, should be passed to this function without modification.
Sets start_path and end_path to be the first and last visible path. Note that there may be invisible paths in between.
Activates the item determined by path.
Returns true if the icon pointed to by path is currently selected. If path does not point to a valid location, false is returned.
Moves the alignments of icon_view to the position specified by path. row_align determines where the row is placed, and col_align determines where column is placed. Both are expected to be between 0.0 and 1.0. 0.0 means left/top alignment, 1.0 means right/bottom alignment, 0.5 means center.
Selects all the icons. icon_view must has its selection mode set to gtk.types.SelectionMode.Multiple.
Selects the row at path.
Calls a function for each selected icon. Note that the model or selection cannot be modified from within this function.
Causes the gtk.icon_view.IconView::item-activated signal to be emitted on a single click instead of a double click.
Sets the ::column-spacing property which specifies the space which is inserted between the columns of the icon view.
Sets the ::columns property which determines in how many columns the icons are arranged. If columns is -1, the number of columns will be chosen automatically to fill the available area.
Sets the current keyboard focus to be at path, and selects it. This is useful when you want to focus the user’s attention on a particular item. If cell is not null, then focus is given to the cell specified by it. Additionally, if start_editing is true, then editing should be started in the specified cell.
Sets the item that is highlighted for feedback.
Sets the ::item-orientation property which determines whether the labels are drawn beside the icons instead of below.
Sets the gtk.icon_view.IconView:item-padding property which specifies the padding around each of the icon view’s items.
Sets the ::item-width property which specifies the width to use for each item. If it is set to -1, the icon view will automatically determine a suitable item size.
Sets the ::margin property which specifies the space which is inserted at the top, bottom, left and right of the icon view.
Sets the column with markup information for icon_view to be column. The markup column must be of type G_TYPE_STRING. If the markup column is set to something, it overrides the text column set by gtk.icon_view.IconView.setTextColumn.
Sets the model for a gtk.icon_view.IconView. If the icon_view already has a model set, it will remove it before setting the new model. If model is null, then it will unset the old model.
Sets the column with pixbufs for icon_view to be column. The pixbuf column must be of type GDK_TYPE_PIXBUF
This function is a convenience function to allow you to reorder models that support the gtk.tree_drag_source_iface.TreeDragSourceIface and the gtk.tree_drag_dest_iface.TreeDragDestIface. Both gtk.tree_store.TreeStore and gtk.list_store.ListStore support these. If reorderable is true, then the user can reorder the model by dragging and dropping rows. The developer can listen to these changes by connecting to the model's row_inserted and row_deleted signals. The reordering is implemented by setting up the icon view as a drag source and destination. Therefore, drag and drop can not be used in a reorderable view for any other purpose.
Sets the ::row-spacing property which specifies the space which is inserted between the rows of the icon view.
Sets the selection mode of the icon_view.
Sets the ::spacing property which specifies the space which is inserted between the cells (i.e. the icon and the text) of an item.
Sets the column with text for icon_view to be column. The text column must be of type G_TYPE_STRING.
Sets the tip area of tooltip to the area which cell occupies in the item pointed to by path. See also gtk.tooltip.Tooltip.setTipArea.
If you only plan to have simple (text-only) tooltips on full items, you can use this function to have gtk.icon_view.IconView handle these automatically for you. column should be set to the column in icon_view’s model containing the tooltip texts, or -1 to disable this feature.
Sets the tip area of tooltip to be the area covered by the item at path. See also gtk.icon_view.IconView.setTooltipColumn for a simpler alternative. See also gtk.tooltip.Tooltip.setTipArea.
Unselects all the icons.
Unselects the row at path.
Undoes the effect of gtk.icon_view.IconView.enableModelDragDest. Calling this method sets gtk.icon_view.IconView:reorderable to false.

Deprecated: Use gtk.grid_view.GridView instead
gtk.icon_view.IconView is a widget which displays data in a grid of icons.
gtk.icon_view.IconView provides an alternative view on a gtk.tree_model.TreeModel. It displays the model as a grid of icons with labels. Like gtk.tree_view.TreeView, it allows to select one or multiple items (depending on the selection mode, see gtk.icon_view.IconView.setSelectionMode). In addition to selection with the arrow keys, gtk.icon_view.IconView supports rubberband selection, which is controlled by dragging the pointer.
Note that if the tree model is backed by an actual tree store (as opposed to a flat list where the mapping to icons is obvious), gtk.icon_view.IconView will only display the first level of the tree and ignore the tree’s branches.
CSS nodes
gtk.icon_view.IconView has a single CSS node with name iconview and style class .view. For rubberband selection, a subnode with name rubberband is used.
