wxTreebook(3)

NAME
wxTreebook - This class is an extension of the wxNotebook class that allows a tree structured set of pages to be shown in a control.

DESCRIPTION

A classic example is a netscape preferences dialog that shows a tree of preference sections on the left and select section page on the right.

To use the class simply create it and populate with pages using insertPage/5, insertSubPage/5, addPage/4, AddSubPage() (not implemented in wx).

If your tree is no more than 1 level in depth then you could simply use addPage/4 and AddSubPage() (not implemented in wx) to sequentially populate your tree by adding at every step a page or a subpage to the end of the tree.

DATA TYPES

wxTreebook() :: wx:wx_object().

FUNCTIONS

addPage(This, Page, Text, [Option]) -> boolean() when This :: wxTreebook(), Page :: wxWindow:wxWindow(), Text :: unicode:chardata(), Option :: {bSelect, boolean()} | {imageId, integer()}.

    Adds a new page.

    The page is placed at the topmost level after all other pages. NULL could be specified for page to create an empty page.
advanceSelection(This, [Option]) -> ok when This :: wxTreebook(), Option :: {forward, boolean()}.

    Cycles through the tabs.

    The call to this function generates the page changing events.
assignImageList(This, ImageList) -> ok when This :: wxTreebook(), ImageList :: wxImageList:wxImageList().

    Sets the image list for the page control and takes ownership of the list.

    See:

        • wxImageList

        • setImageList/2
changeSelection(This, Page) -> integer() when This :: wxTreebook(), Page :: integer().

    Changes the selection to the given page, returning the previous selection.

    This function behaves as setSelection/2 but does not generate the page changing events.

    See overview_events_prog for more information.
create(This, Parent, Id, [Option]) -> boolean() when This :: wxTreebook(), Parent :: wxWindow:wxWindow(), Id :: integer(), Option :: {pos, {X :: integer(), Y :: integer()}} | {size, {W :: integer(), H :: integer()}} | {style, integer()}.

    Creates a treebook control.

    See new/3 for the description of the parameters.
deleteAllPages(This) -> boolean() when This :: wxTreebook().

    Deletes all pages.
destroy(This :: wxTreebook()) -> ok.

    Destroys the object
expandNode(This, PageId, [Option]) -> boolean() when This :: wxTreebook(), PageId :: integer(), Option :: {expand, boolean()}.

    Expands (collapses) the pageId node.

    Returns the previous state. May generate page changing events (if selected page is under the collapsed branch, then its parent is autoselected).
getCurrentPage(This) -> wxWindow:wxWindow() when This :: wxTreebook().

    Returns the currently selected page or NULL.
getImageList(This) -> wxImageList:wxImageList() when This :: wxTreebook().

    Returns the associated image list, may be NULL.

    See:

        • wxImageList

        • setImageList/2
getPage(This, Page) -> wxWindow:wxWindow() when This :: wxTreebook(), Page :: integer().

    Returns the window at the given page position.
getPageCount(This) -> integer() when This :: wxTreebook().

    Returns the number of pages in the control.
getPageImage(This, NPage) -> integer() when This :: wxTreebook(), NPage :: integer().

    Returns the image index for the given page.
getPageText(This, NPage) -> unicode:charlist() when This :: wxTreebook(), NPage :: integer().

    Returns the string for the given page.
getSelection(This) -> integer() when This :: wxTreebook().

    Returns the currently selected page, or wxNOT\_FOUND if none was selected.

    Note: This method may return either the previously or newly selected page when called from the EVT_TREEBOOK_PAGE_CHANGED() handler depending on the platform and so wxBookCtrlEvent:getSelection/1 should be used instead in this case.
hitTest(This, Pt) -> Result when Result :: {Res :: integer(), Flags :: integer()}, This :: wxTreebook(), Pt :: {X :: integer(), Y :: integer()}.

    Returns the index of the tab at the specified position or wxNOT\_FOUND if none.

    If flags parameter is non-NULL, the position of the point inside the tab is returned as well.

    Return: Returns the zero-based tab index or wxNOT_FOUND if there is no tab at the specified position.
insertPage(This, PagePos, Page, Text, [Option]) -> boolean() when This :: wxTreebook(), PagePos :: integer(), Page :: wxWindow:wxWindow(), Text :: unicode:chardata(), Option :: {bSelect, boolean()} | {imageId, integer()}.

    Inserts a new page just before the page indicated by pagePos.

    The new page is placed before pagePos page and on the same level. NULL could be specified for page to create an empty page.
insertSubPage(This, PagePos, Page, Text, [Option]) -> boolean() when This :: wxTreebook(), PagePos :: integer(), Page :: wxWindow:wxWindow(), Text :: unicode:chardata(), Option :: {bSelect, boolean()} | {imageId, integer()}.

    Inserts a sub page under the specified page.

    NULL could be specified for page to create an empty page.
isNodeExpanded(This, PageId) -> boolean() when This :: wxTreebook(), PageId :: integer().

    Returns true if the page represented by pageId is expanded.
new() -> wxTreebook().

    Default constructor.
new(Parent, Id, [Option]) -> wxTreebook() when Parent :: wxWindow:wxWindow(), Id :: integer(), Option :: {pos, {X :: integer(), Y :: integer()}} | {size, {W :: integer(), H :: integer()}} | {style, integer()}.

    Creates an empty wxTreebook.
setImageList(This, ImageList) -> ok when This :: wxTreebook(), ImageList :: wxImageList:wxImageList().

    Sets the image list to use.

    It does not take ownership of the image list, you must delete it yourself.

    See:

        • wxImageList

        • assignImageList/2
setPageImage(This, Page, Image) -> boolean() when This :: wxTreebook(), Page :: integer(), Image :: integer().

    Sets the image index for the given page.

    image is an index into the image list which was set with setImageList/2.
setPageSize(This, Size) -> ok when This :: wxTreebook(), Size :: {W :: integer(), H :: integer()}.

    Sets the width and height of the pages.

    Note: This method is currently not implemented for wxGTK.
setPageText(This, Page, Text) -> boolean() when This :: wxTreebook(), Page :: integer(), Text :: unicode:chardata().

    Sets the text for the given page.
setSelection(This, Page) -> integer() when This :: wxTreebook(), Page :: integer().

    Sets the selection to the given page, returning the previous selection.

    Notice that the call to this function generates the page changing events, use the changeSelection/2 function if you don't want these events to be generated.
