VisualizaçõesShow password button on entry in gtk
Is there a way in gtk to make an eye icon on the right of an entry to show a password? I know there is a way to make a checkbox under an entry to show the password, but I want the button to be inside the entry, not outside. To put it simply:
What i'm looking for is this: show password icon
...and not this: show password checkbox

You can put an icon to Gtk.Entry with the set_icon_from_ functions, for example set_icon_from_name.
So you need to set the icon to for example to the view-reveal-symbolic.symbolic icon, make it clickable with set_icon_activatable and then in the signal handler for the icon-press event you need to set_visibility to either hide or show the text (and also change the icon to something like view-conceal-symbolic.symbolic).
So the Gtk.Entry code could look like this
GtkWidget *entry = gtk_entry_new();
gtk_entry_set_visibility(GTK_ENTRY(entry), FALSE);
gtk_entry_set_icon_from_icon_name(GTK_ENTRY(entry),
GTK_ENTRY_ICON_SECONDARY,
"view-reveal-symbolic.symbolic");
gtk_entry_set_icon_activatable(GTK_ENTRY(entry), GTK_ENTRY_ICON_SECONDARY, TRUE);
g_signal_connect(entry, "icon-press", G_CALLBACK (on_icon_press), NULL);
and the signal handler
void on_icon_press(GtkWidget *widget, gpointer data) {
gboolean visible = gtk_entry_get_visibility(GTK_ENTRY(widget));
if (visible) {
gtk_entry_set_visibility(GTK_ENTRY(widget), FALSE);
gtk_entry_set_icon_from_icon_name(GTK_ENTRY(widget),
GTK_ENTRY_ICON_SECONDARY,
"view-reveal-symbolic.symbolic");
} else {
gtk_entry_set_visibility(GTK_ENTRY(widget), TRUE);
gtk_entry_set_icon_from_icon_name(GTK_ENTRY(widget),
GTK_ENTRY_ICON_SECONDARY,
"view-conceal-symbolic.symbolic");
}
}
And you'll get something like this:
