Widget::Widget ( object_id  id,
api_type impl 
) [protected]


Member Function Documentation

void Widget::add_ref (  )  [virtual]

Increments the reference count for this Widget.

Implements omgui::RefCountable.

omgui::Connection Widget::connect ( event_id  event,
SlotBase slot,
int  priority = SIGNAL_PRIORITY_NORMAL 
)

Connects an event using this Widget's object_id. Calls omgui::Manager::connect with supplied arguments.

void Widget::destroy (  ) 

Destroys this widget freeing all resources.

void Widget::disable (  ) 

void Widget::enable ( bool  e  ) 

Enables or disables the widget. Disabled widgets cannot recieve user input.

void * Widget::get_handle (  )  const

Returns:
A native handle for the widget. This value is returned as a void*, and how you use this value is dependant on the port you are working with. For win32, simply casting the return value to a HWND is sufficient.
Todo:
Casting a pointer type to a type that isn't a pointer may not work under all circumstances

object_id omgui::Object::get_id (  )  const [inherited]

Returns:
This object's unique identifier

Reimplemented in omgui::MenuItem.

api_type* omgui::Widget::get_impl (  )  const

template<typename T>
Widget::api_type * Widget::get_impl (  )  const [inline, protected]

omgui::Size Widget::get_max_size (  )  const

Returns the maximum size of the Widget. A value of 0 for width or height indicates that there is no maximum size in that direction.

Returns:
Maximum size of the widget.

omgui::Size Widget::get_min_size (  )  const

Returns the minimum size of the Widget. A value of 0 for width or height indicates that there is no minimum size in that direction.

Returns:
Minimum size of the widget.

omgui::Size Widget::get_natural_size (  )  const

Returns:
Natural size of the widget. The natural size is used by layout managers to determine how large to make widgets which are not expanded. Unless a natural size is explicitly specified by a call to set_natural_size or through an inintializer, this value is a calculated value and can vary from widget to widget and from port to port.

Pointer< Panel > Widget::get_parent (  )  const

This function returns the parent Panel of this Widget. In the case where this Widget is the Content Panel of a Window, this function will return an empty pointer.

Returns:
The parent of this widget

Pointer< Window > Widget::get_parent_window (  )  const

This function returns the Window which this Widget is either directly or indirectly a child of. In the case where this Widget is a Window, this function returns the owner Window, or an empty pointer if the Window is unowned.

Returns:
The Window which contains this widget.

omgui::Point Widget::get_position (  )  const

Returns:
Position of the widget. If the widget is a TLW TLW, the position is in screen coordinates. Otherwise, the position is in client coordinates.

omgui::Rect Widget::get_rect (  )  const

Returns:
Position and Size of this widget as a rectangle.

omgui::Size Widget::get_size (  )  const

Returns:
Absolute size of the widget

void Widget::hide (  ) 

bool Widget::is_enabled (  )  const

Determines whether or not the widget is enabled. If any of a widget's parents are disabled, the widget is considered disabled.

Returns:
Whether or not the widget is enabled

bool Widget::is_hidden (  )  const

Returns whether or not this Widget has been hidden.

If show(true) has been called the Widget is considered not to be hidden. If show(false) or hide() have been called the Widget is considered hidden. A Widget is also considered hidden if it was created without specifying show in its initializer. The hidden state of the parent Widget has no effect on the hidden state of this Widget.

Note:
The return value is not equivilant to !is_shown().
Todo:
Implement for gtk2 and cocoa

bool Widget::is_shown (  )  const

Returns whether or not the Widget is visible on the screen. If the Widget and all of its parent Widgets are not hidden then the Widget is shown.

Note:
The return value is not equivilant to !is_hidden().
Todo:
Verify the newly documented behavior for this function on gtk2 and cocoa ports

void Widget::release (  )  [virtual]

Decrements the reference count for this Widget. Once the count reaches 0 the Widget will be deleted.

Implements omgui::RefCountable.

void Widget::set_max_size ( const omgui::Size s  ) 

Sets the maximum size of the widget. A value of 0 for width or height indicates that there is no maximum size in that direction.

If the Widget's current size is greater than the newly specified maximum size, the object will be resized so that its size is equal to the newly specified maximum size.

void Widget::set_min_size ( const omgui::Size s  ) 

Sets the minimum size of the Widget. A value of 0 for width or height indicates that there is no minimum size in that direction. If the Widget's current size is less than the newly specified minimum size, the object will be resized so that its size is equal to the newly specified minimum size.

If a child of this Widget has a minimum size larger than the minimum size of this Widget, the minimum size of this Widget will be effectively equal to the minimum size of that child Widget. This has an important implication for Windows and their content panels. If a Window has a minimum size of X, and a Panel A with minimum size Y > X is specified as the Window's content panel, the minimum content size of the Window is effectively Y. If a new Panel B with minimum size Z < Y is specified as the Window's content panel, the effective minimum content size for the window will be Y.

If an Widget is specified with a minimum size that is larger than the Widgets maximum size, or if a maximum size is later specified which is smaller than an existing minimum size, the minimum size will always take precedence over the maximal size. A minimum size of (100,100) and a maximal size of (50,50) results in a minimum size of (100,100) and a maximum size of (100,100). If the minimum size is later changed to (25,25), the maximum size is again (50,50) and the minimum size is (25,25). This case also applies to Window's and their content panels. A content panel's minimum size always takes precedence over a Window's maximum content size.

void Widget::set_natural_size ( const omgui::Size s  ) 

Sets the natural size for this widget. The natural size is used by layout managers to determine how large to make widgets which are not expanded. The default natural size has a width and height of 0, which means that an acceptible natural size will be calculated for the width and height. You can override the calculated value by specifying your own value for the width and or height.

void Widget::set_position ( const omgui::Point p  ) 

Sets the position of a widget. If the widget is a TopLevel widget, the position value is in screen coordinates, otherwise it is client coordinates.

void Widget::set_rect ( const omgui::Rect r  ) 

Sets both the position and the size of the widget. If the widget is a TopLevel widget, the value is in screen coordinates, otherwise it is client coordinates.

void Widget::set_size ( const omgui::Size s  ) 

Sets the absolute size of this widget. If the widget is a TopLevel widget, the value is in screen coordinates, otherwise it is client coordinates.

If the size value specified is smaller than the minimum size or larger than the maximum size, the size value actually set will be equal to the minimum size or maximum size respectively.

void Widget::show ( bool  show = true,
bool  focus = false 
)

Shows or hides a widget.

Note:
If this widget is a Panel which is currently functioning as a NotebookPage, this function will have no effect. Panel's which are NotebookPages are shown and hidden by the Notebook itself.

Reimplemented in omgui::TopLevel.
