gtk:shortcut-trigger-parse-string (str)

str -- a string to parse

The new gtk:shortcut-trigger object, or nil on error.

Tries to parse the given string into a trigger. On success, the parsed trigger is returned. When parsing failed, nil is returned. The accepted strings are:

• never: for a gtk:never-trigger object
• a string parsed by the gtk:accelerator-parse function, for a gtk:keyval-trigger object, for example <Control>C
• underscore, followed by a single character, for a gtk:mnemonic-trigger object, for example _l
• two valid trigger strings, separated by a | character, for a gtk:alternative-trigger object, for example <Control>q|&lt;Control>w

Note that you will have to escape the < and &gt; characters when specifying triggers in XML files, such as GtkBuilder UI files. Use &lt; instead of < and &gt; instead of &gt;.
