A Switch widget is a simple On/Off state toggle. It is commonly used to represent the state of physical items such as the state of a wireless network connection.
The constructor for the Switch is:
GtkWidget *switch = gtk_switch_new();
To retrieve whether the Switch is active (on) or inactive (off), call:
gtk_switch_get_active(GTK_SWITCH(switch));
If the Switch is on, TRUE will be returned, otherwise FALSE is returned.
The state of the Switch can be set programatically with:
gtk_switch_set_active(GTK_SWITCH(switch), state);
Below is an example of a Switch:
