12 | @class wxHeaderCtrl | |
13 | ||
14 | wxHeaderCtrl is the control containing the column headings which is usually | |
15 | used for display of tabular data. | |
16 | ||
17 | It is used as part of wxGrid and (will be used in the near future) in | |
18 | in wxDataViewCtrl and report view of wxListCtrl but can be also used | |
e2bfe673 VZ |
19 | independently. In general this class is meant to be used as part of another |
20 | control which already stores the column information somewhere as it can't | |
21 | be used directly: instead you need to inherit from it and implement the | |
22 | GetColumn() method to provide column information. See wxHeaderCtrlSimple | |
23 | for a concrete control class which can be used directly. | |
56873923 VZ |
24 | |
25 | In addition to labeling the columns, the control has the following | |
26 | features: | |
27 | - Column reordering support, either by explicitly configuring the | |
28 | columns order and calling SetColumnsOrder() or by dragging the | |
29 | columns interactively (if enabled). | |
30 | - Display of the icons in the header: this is often used to display a | |
31 | sort or reverse sort indicator when the column header is clicked. | |
32 | ||
33 | Notice that this control itself doesn't do anything other than displaying | |
34 | the column headers. In particular column reordering and sorting must still | |
35 | be supported by the associated control displaying the real data under the | |
f24f6579 VZ |
36 | header. Also remember to call ScrollWindow() method of the control if the |
37 | associated data display window has a horizontal scrollbar, otherwise the | |
38 | headers wouldn't align with the data when the window is scrolled. | |
56873923 VZ |
39 | |
40 | This control is implemented using the native header control under MSW | |
41 | systems and a generic implementation elsewhere. | |

71 | to make implementing this easier). | |

82 | Some features are supported by the native MSW control and so could be | |
83 | easily implemented in this version of wxHeaderCtrl but need to be | |
84 | implemented in the generic version as well to be really useful. Please let | |
85 | us know if you need or, better, plan to work on implementing, any of them: | |
86 | - Displaying bitmaps instead of or together with the text | |
87 | - Custom drawn headers | |
88 | - Filters associated with a column. | |
