Gnome::Gtk3::Orientable

An interface for flippable widgets

Description

The Gnome::Gtk3::Orientable interface is implemented by all widgets that can be oriented horizontally or vertically. Historically, such widgets have been realized as subclasses of a common base class (e.g HBox/VBox or HScale/VScale). Gnome::Gtk3::Orientable is more flexible in that it allows the orientation to be changed at runtime, allowing the widgets to “flip”.

Note that HBox/VBox or HScale/VScale are not implemented in this Raku package because these classes are deprecated.
