This type indicates the current state of a widget. The state determines how the widget is drawn. The gtk-state-type enumeration is also used to identify different colors in a deprecated GtkStyle object for drawing, so states can be used for subparts of a widget as well as entire widgets. The gtk-state-type enumeration has been deprecated since version 3.14 and should not be used in newly written code. All APIs that are using this enumeration have been deprecated in favor of alternatives using the gtk-state-flags flags.
