Widget.activate

For widgets that can be “activated” (buttons, menu items, etc.), this function activates them.

The activation will emit the signal set using gtk.widget_class.WidgetClass.setActivateSignal during class initialization.

Activation is what happens when you press <kbd>Enter</kbd> on a widget during key navigation.

If you wish to handle the activation keybinding yourself, it is recommended to use gtk.widget_class.WidgetClass.addShortcut with an action created with gtk.signal_action.SignalAction.new_.

If widget isn't activatable, the function returns false.
