SYNOPSIS

 use Gtk2::Ex::History::Button;

OBJECT HIERARCHY

Gtk2::Ex::History::Button is a subclass of Gtk2::Button.

    Gtk2::Widget
      Gtk2::Container
        Gtk2::Bin
          Gtk2::Button
            Gtk2::Ex::History::Button

DESCRIPTION

A Gtk2::Ex::History::Button invokes either back or forward on a Gtk2::Ex::History object.

    +--------------+
    | ==>  Forward |
    +--------------+

Mouse button-3 opens a Gtk2::Ex::History::Menu to select an entry from a menu to jump to, to go more than one place back or forward.

A button like this can be used anywhere desired. If it's put in a Gtk2::ToolItem it can be used in a Gtk2::Toolbar, though if using Gtk2::UIManager then see Gtk2::Ex::History::Action instead.

FUNCTIONS

$button = Gtk2::Ex::History::Button->new (key => value, ...)

Create and return a new history button. Optional key/value pairs can be given to set initial properties, as per Glib::Object->new.

The history property should be set to say what to display, and way for back or forward.

    my $button = Gtk2::Ex::History::Button->new
                    (history => $history,
                     way => 'forward');

PROPERTIES

history (Gtk2::Ex::History object, default undef)

The history object to act on.

way (enum Gtk2::Ex::History::Way, default "back")

The direction to go, either "back" or "forward".

The "stock" icon is set from this, either gtk-go-back or gtk-go-forward.
