Properties
Properties		Defined By
	action_group : Gtk.ActionGroup	Gtk.Action
	always_show_image : Boolean If TRUE, the action's menu item proxies will ignore the GtkSettings:gtk-menu-images setting and always show their image, if available. If TRUE, the action's menu item proxies will ignore the GtkSettings:gtk-menu-images setting and always show their image, if available. Use this property if the menu item would be useless or hard to use without their image.	Gtk.Action
	gicon : Gio.Icon The GIcon displayed in the GtkAction. The GIcon displayed in the GtkAction. Note that the stock icon is preferred, if the GtkAction:stock-id property holds the id of an existing stock icon.

	icon_name : String The name of the icon from the icon theme. The name of the icon from the icon theme. Note that the stock icon is preferred, if the GtkAction:stock-id property holds the id of an existing stock icon, and the GIcon is preferred if the GtkAction:gicon property is set. This is an appearance property and thus only applies if GtkActivatable:use-action-appearance is TRUE.	Gtk.Action
	is_important : Boolean	Gtk.Action
	label : String The label used for menu items and buttons that activate this action. The label used for menu items and buttons that activate this action.
