### Class

# WebKit2 Settings

#### Description [src]

    class WebKit2.Settings : GObject.Object
    {
      priv: WebKitSettingsPrivate*
    }

Control the behaviour of a `WebKitWebView`.

`WebKitSettings` can be applied to a `WebKitWebView` to control text charset, color, font sizes, printing mode, script support, loading of images and various other things on a `WebKitWebView`. After creation, a `WebKitSettings` object contains default settings.

    // Disable JavaScript
    WebKitSettings *settings = webkit_web_view_group_get_settings (my_view_group);
    webkit_settings_set_enable_javascript (settings, FALSE);

##### Methods inherited from GObject (43)

Please see GObject for a full list of methods.

#### Properties

###### WebKit2.Settings:allow-file-access-from-file-urls

Whether file access is allowed from file URLs. By default, when something is loaded in a `WebKitWebView` using a file URI, cross origin requests to other file resources are not allowed. This setting allows you to change that behaviour, so that it would be possible to do a XMLHttpRequest of a local file, for example.

since: 2.10

###### WebKit2.Settings:allow-modal-dialogs

Determine whether it’s allowed to create and run modal dialogs from a `WebKitWebView` through JavaScript with window.showModalDialog. If it’s set to `FALSE`, the associated `WebKitWebView` won’t be able to create new modal dialogs, so not even the `WebKitWebView::create` signal will be emitted.

###### WebKit2.Settings:allow-top-navigation-to-data-urls

Whether or not the top frame is allowed to navigate to data URLs. It is disabled by default due to the risk it poses when loading untrusted URLs, with data URLs being used in scamming and phishing attacks. In contrast, a scenario where it could be enabled could be an app that embeds a WebView and you have control of the pages being show instead of a generic browser.

since: 2.28

###### WebKit2.Settings:allow-universal-access-from-file-urls

Whether or not JavaScript running in the context of a file scheme URL should be allowed to access content from any origin. By default, when something is loaded in a `WebKitWebView` using a file scheme URL, access to the local file system and arbitrary local storage is not allowed. This setting allows you to change that behaviour, so that it would be possible to use local storage, for example.

since: 2.14

###### WebKit2.Settings:auto-load-images

Determines whether images should be automatically loaded or not. On devices where network bandwidth is of concern, it might be useful to turn this property off.

###### WebKit2.Settings:enable-2d-canvas-acceleration

Enable or disable 2D canvas acceleration. If this setting is enabled, the 2D canvas will be accelerated even if Skia CPU is used for rendering. However, the canvas can be unaccelerated even when this setting is enabled, for other reasons like its size or when willReadFrequently property is used.

since: 2.46

###### WebKit2.Settings:enable-accelerated-2d-canvas

Enable or disable accelerated 2D canvas. Accelerated 2D canvas is only available if WebKit was compiled with a version of Cairo including the unstable CairoGL API. When accelerated 2D canvas is enabled, WebKit may render some 2D canvas content using hardware accelerated drawing operations.

deprecated: 2.32. since: 2.2

###### WebKit2.Settings:enable-back-forward-navigation-gestures

###### WebKit2.Settings:enable-site-specific-quirks

Whether to turn on site-specific quirks. Turning this on will tell WebKit to use some site-specific workarounds for better web compatibility. For example, older versions of MediaWiki will incorrectly send to WebKit a CSS file with KHTML workarounds. By turning on site-specific quirks, WebKit will special-case this and other cases to make some specific sites work.

###### WebKit2.Settings:enable-smooth-scrolling

Enable or disable smooth scrolling.

###### WebKit2.Settings:enable-spatial-navigation

Whether to enable Spatial Navigation. This feature consists in the ability to navigate between focusable elements in a Web page, such as hyperlinks and form controls, by using Left, Right, Up and Down arrow keys. For example, if an user presses the Right key, heuristics determine whether there is an element they might be trying to reach towards the right, and if there are multiple elements, which element they probably wants.

since: 2.30

###### WebKit2.Settings:media-playback-allows-inline

Whether media playback is full-screen only or inline playback is allowed. This is `TRUE` by default, so media playback can be inline. Setting it to `FALSE` allows specifying that media playback should be always fullscreen.

###### WebKit2.Settings:media-playback-requires-user-gesture

Whether a user gesture (such as clicking the play button) would be required to start media playback or load media. This is off by default, so media playback could start automatically. Setting it on requires a gesture by the user to start playback, or to load the media.

###### WebKit2.Settings:minimum-font-size

The minimum font size in pixels used to display text. This setting controls the absolute smallest size. Values other than 0 can potentially break page layouts.

###### WebKit2.Settings:monospace-font-family

The font family used as the default for content using a monospace font.

###### WebKit2.Settings:pictograph-font-family

The font family used as the default for content using a pictograph font.

###### WebKit2.Settings:print-backgrounds

Whether background images should be drawn during printing.

###### WebKit2.Settings:sans-serif-font-family

The font family used as the default for content using a sans-serif font.

###### WebKit2.Settings:serif-font-family

The font family used as the default for content using a serif font.

###### WebKit2.Settings:user-agent

The user-agent string used by WebKit. Unusual user-agent strings may cause web content to render incorrectly or fail to run, as many web pages are written to parse the user-agent strings of only the most popular browsers. Therefore, it’s typically better to not completely override the standard user-agent, but to use `webkit_settings_set_user_agent_with_application_details()` instead.

###### WebKit2.Settings:zoom-text-only

Whether `WebKitWebView:zoom-level` affects only the text of the page or all the contents. Other contents containing text like form controls will be also affected by zoom factor when this property is enabled.
