wxVListBox is a wxListBox-like control with the following two main differences from a regular wxListBox: it can have an arbitrarily huge number of items because it doesn't store them itself but uses the OnDrawItem() callback to draw them (so it is a virtual listbox) and its items can have variable height as determined by OnMeasureItem() (so it is also a listbox with the lines of variable height).
Also, as a consequence of its virtual nature, it doesn't have any methods to append or insert items in it as it isn't necessary to do it: you just have to call SetItemCount() to tell the control how many items it should display. Of course, this also means that you will never use this class directly because it has pure virtual functions, but will need to derive your own class from it (for example, wxHtmlListBox).
However it emits the same events as wxListBox and the same event macros may be used with it. Since wxVListBox does not store its items itself, the events will only contain the index, not any contents such as the string of an item.

wxVListBox::wxVListBox | ( | ) |
Default constructor, you must call Create() later.
wxVListBox::wxVListBox | ( | wxWindow * | parent, |
wxWindowID | id = wxID_ANY , |
||
const wxPoint & | pos = wxDefaultPosition , |
||
const wxSize & | size = wxDefaultSize , |
||
long | style = 0 , |
||
const wxString & | name = wxVListBoxNameStr |
||
) |
Normal constructor which calls Create() internally.
virtual wxVListBox::~wxVListBox | ( | ) | [virtual] |
Destructor.
void wxVListBox::Clear | ( | ) |
Deletes all items from the control.
bool wxVListBox::Create | ( | wxWindow * | parent, |
wxWindowID | id = wxID_ANY , |
||
const wxPoint & | pos = wxDefaultPosition , |
||
const wxSize & | size = wxDefaultSize , |
||
long | style = 0 , |
||
const wxString & | name = wxVListBoxNameStr |
||
) |
Creates the control.
To finish creating it you also should call SetItemCount() to let it know about the number of items it contains.
The only special style which may be used with wxVListBox is wxLB_MULTIPLE
which indicates that the listbox should support multiple selection.
Reimplemented from wxVScrolledWindow.
Reimplemented in wxHtmlListBox.
bool wxVListBox::DeselectAll | ( | ) |
Deselects all the items in the listbox.
This method is only valid for multi selection listboxes.
int wxVListBox::GetFirstSelected | ( | unsigned long & | cookie | ) | const |
Returns the index of the first selected item in the listbox or wxNOT_FOUND
if no items are currently selected.
cookie is an opaque parameter which should be passed to the subsequent calls to GetNextSelected(). It is needed in order to allow parallel iterations over the selected items.
Here is a typical example of using these functions:
unsigned long cookie; int item = hlbox->GetFirstSelected(cookie); while ( item != wxNOT_FOUND ) { // ... process item ... item = hlbox->GetNextSelected(cookie); }
This method is only valid for multi selection listboxes.
size_t wxVListBox::GetItemCount | ( | ) | const |
Get the number of items in the control.
wxRect wxVListBox::GetItemRect | ( | size_t | item | ) | const |
Returns the rectangle occupied by this item in physical coordinates.
If the item is not currently visible, returns an empty rectangle.
wxPoint wxVListBox::GetMargins | ( | ) | const |
Returns the margins used by the control.
The x
field of the returned point is the horizontal margin and the y
field is the vertical one.
int wxVListBox::GetNextSelected | ( | unsigned long & | cookie | ) | const |
Returns the index of the next selected item or wxNOT_FOUND
if there are no more.
This method is only valid for multi selection listboxes.
size_t wxVListBox::GetSelectedCount | ( | ) | const |
Returns the number of the items currently selected.
It is valid for both single and multi selection controls. In the former case it may only return 0 or 1 however.
int wxVListBox::GetSelection | ( | ) | const |
Get the currently selected item or wxNOT_FOUND
if there is no selection.
const wxColour& wxVListBox::GetSelectionBackground | ( | ) | const |
Returns the background colour used for the selected cells.
By default the standard system colour is used.
bool wxVListBox::HasMultipleSelection | ( | ) | const |
Returns true if the listbox was created with wxLB_MULTIPLE
style and so supports multiple selection or false if it is a single selection listbox.
bool wxVListBox::IsCurrent | ( | size_t | item | ) | const |
Returns true if this item is the current one, false otherwise.
The current item is always the same as selected one for the single selection listbox and in this case this method is equivalent to IsSelected() but they are different for multi selection listboxes where many items may be selected but only one (at most) is current.
bool wxVListBox::IsSelected | ( | size_t | item | ) | const |
Returns true if this item is selected, false otherwise.
virtual void wxVListBox::OnDrawBackground | ( | wxDC & | dc, |
const wxRect & | rect, | ||
size_t | n | ||
) | const [protected, virtual] |
This method is used to draw the items background and, maybe, a border around it.
The base class version implements a reasonable default behaviour which consists in drawing the selected item with the standard background colour and drawing a border around the item if it is either selected or current.
virtual void wxVListBox::OnDrawItem | ( | wxDC & | dc, |
const wxRect & | rect, | ||
size_t | n | ||
) | const [protected, pure virtual] |
The derived class must implement this function to actually draw the item with the given index on the provided DC.
dc | The device context to use for drawing. |
rect | The bounding rectangle for the item being drawn (DC clipping region is set to this rectangle before calling this function). |
n | The index of the item to be drawn. |
virtual void wxVListBox::OnDrawSeparator | ( | wxDC & | dc, |
wxRect & | rect, | ||
size_t | n | ||
) | const [protected, virtual] |
This method may be used to draw separators between the lines.
The rectangle passed to it may be modified, typically to deflate it a bit before passing to OnDrawItem().
The base class version of this method doesn't do anything.
dc | The device context to use for drawing. |
rect | The bounding rectangle for the item. |
n | The index of the item. |
virtual wxCoord wxVListBox::OnMeasureItem | ( | size_t | n | ) | const [protected, pure virtual] |
The derived class must implement this method to return the height of the specified item (in pixels).
bool wxVListBox::Select | ( | size_t | item, |
bool | select = true |
||
) |
Selects or deselects the specified item which must be valid (i.e.
not equal to wxNOT_FOUND
).
This function is only valid for the multiple selection listboxes, use SetSelection() for the single selection ones.
bool wxVListBox::SelectAll | ( | ) |
Selects all the items in the listbox.
This method is only valid for multi selection listboxes.
bool wxVListBox::SelectRange | ( | size_t | from, |
size_t | to | ||
) |
Selects all items in the specified range which may be given in any order.
This method is only valid for multi selection listboxes.
virtual void wxVListBox::SetItemCount | ( | size_t | count | ) | [virtual] |
Set the number of items to be shown in the control.
This is just a synonym for wxVScrolledWindow::SetRowCount().
Set the margins: horizontal margin is the distance between the window border and the item contents while vertical margin is half of the distance between items.
By default both margins are 0.
void wxVListBox::SetMargins | ( | const wxPoint & | pt | ) |
Set the margins: horizontal margin is the distance between the window border and the item contents while vertical margin is half of the distance between items.
By default both margins are 0.
void wxVListBox::SetSelection | ( | int | selection | ) |
Set the selection to the specified item, if it is -1 the selection is unset.
The selected item will be automatically scrolled into view if it isn't currently visible.
This method may be used both with single and multiple selection listboxes.
void wxVListBox::SetSelectionBackground | ( | const wxColour & | col | ) |
Sets the colour to be used for the selected cells background.
The background of the standard cells may be changed by simply calling wxWindow::SetBackgroundColour().
void wxVListBox::Toggle | ( | size_t | item | ) |
Toggles the state of the specified item, i.e.
selects it if it was unselected and deselects it if it was selected.
This method is only valid for multi selection listboxes.
