Image
The GtkImage
widget displays an image.
Various kinds of object can be displayed as an image; most typically, you would load a GdkTexture
from a file, using the convenience function ctor@Gtk.Image.new_from_file, for instance:
GtkWidget *image = gtk_image_new_from_file ("myfile.png");
If the file isn’t loaded successfully, the image will contain a “broken image” icon similar to that used in many web browsers.
If you want to handle errors in loading the file yourself, for example by displaying an error message, then load the image with ctor@Gdk.Texture.new_from_file, then create the GtkImage
with ctor@Gtk.Image.new_from_paintable.
Sometimes an application will want to avoid depending on external data files, such as image files. See the documentation of GResource
inside GIO, for details. In this case, property@Gtk.Image:resource, ctor@Gtk.Image.new_from_resource, and method@Gtk.Image.set_from_resource should be used.
GtkImage
displays its image as an icon, with a size that is determined by the application. See class@Gtk.Picture if you want to show an image at is actual size.
CSS nodes
GtkImage
has a single CSS node with the name image
. The style classes .normal-icons
or .large-icons
may appear, depending on the property@Gtk.Image:icon-size property.
Accessibility

uses the GTK_ACCESSIBLE_ROLE_IMG
