10 @class wxGridCellRenderer
12 This class is responsible for actually drawing the cell in the grid. You
13 may pass it to the wxGridCellAttr (below) to change the format of one given
14 cell or to wxGrid::SetDefaultRenderer() to change the view of all cells.
15 This is an abstract class, and you will normally use one of the predefined
16 derived classes or derive your own class from it.

34 Draw the given cell on the provided DC inside the given rectangle using
35 the style specified by the attribute and the default or selected state
36 corresponding to the isSelected value.
38 This pure virtual function has a default implementation which will
39 prepare the DC using the given attribute: it will draw the rectangle
40 with the background colour from attr and set the text colour and font.

165 @class wxGridCellEditor
167 This class is responsible for providing and manipulating the in-place edit
168 controls for the grid. Instances of wxGridCellEditor (actually, instances
169 of derived classes since it is an abstract class) can be associated with
170 the cell attributes for individual cells, rows, columns, or even for the
176 @see wxGridCellBoolEditor, wxGridCellChoiceEditor, wxGridCellFloatEditor,
177 wxGridCellNumberEditor, wxGridCellTextEditor
179 class wxGridCellEditor
188 Fetch the value from the table and prepare the edit control to begin
191 This function should save the original value of the grid cell at the
192 given @a row and @a col and show the control allowing the user to
197 virtual void BeginEdit(int row

213 virtual void Destroy();
216 End editing the cell.
218 This function must check if the current value of the editing control is
219 valid and different from the original value (available as @a oldval in
220 its string form and possibly saved internally using its real type by
221 BeginEdit()). If it isn't, it just returns @false, otherwise it must do
223 # Save the new value internally so that ApplyEdit() could apply it.
224 # Fill @a newval (which is never @NULL) with the string
225 representation of the new value.
228 Notice that it must @em not modify the grid as the change could still

240 This function should save the value of the control in the grid. It is
241 called only after EndEdit() returns @true.

246 Some types of controls on some platforms may need some help with the
249 virtual void HandleReturn(wxKeyEvent
& event
);
252 Returns @true if the edit control has been created.
257 Draws the part of the cell not occupied by the control: the base class
258 version just fills it with background colour from the attribute.
260 virtual void PaintBackground(const wxRect

279 If the editor is enabled by clicking on the cell, this method will be
282 virtual void StartingClick();
285 If the editor is enabled by pressing keys on the grid, this will be
286 called to let the editor do something about that first key if desired.
288 virtual void StartingKey(wxKeyEvent

);
325 This method allows you to customize the values returned by GetValue()
326 for the cell using this editor. By default, the default values of the

503 This class is reference counted: it is created with ref count of 1, so
504 calling DecRef() once will delete it. Calling IncRef() allows to lock
505 it until the matching DecRef() is called.

628 @class wxGridTableBase
630 The almost abstract base class for grid tables.
632 A grid table is responsible for storing the grid data and, indirectly, grid
633 cell attributes. The data can be stored in the way most convenient for the
634 application but has to be provided in string form to wxGrid. It is also
635 possible to provide cells values in other formats if appropriate, e.g. as
638 This base class is not quite abstract as it implements a trivial strategy
639 for storing the attributes by forwarding it to wxGridCellAttrProvider and
640 also provides stubs for some other functions. However it does have a number
641 of pure virtual methods which must be implemented in the derived classes.
643 @see wxGridStringTable
648 class wxGridTableBase
: public wxObject
657 Destructor frees the attribute provider if it was created.
659 virtual ~wxGridTableBase();
662 Must be overridden to return the number of rows in the table.
664 For backwards compatibility reasons, this method is not const.
665 Use GetRowsCount() instead of it in const methods of derived table
668 virtual int GetNumberRows() = 0;
671 Must be overridden to return the number of columns in the table.
673 For backwards compatibility reasons, this method is not const.
674 Use GetColsCount() instead of it in const methods of derived table
677 virtual int GetNumberCols() = 0;
680 Return the number of rows in the table.
682 This method is not virtual and is only provided as a convenience for
683 the derived classes which can't call GetNumberRows() without a
684 @c const_cast from their const methods.
686 int GetRowsCount() const;
689 Return the number of columns in the table.
691 This method is not virtual and is only provided as a convenience for
692 the derived classes which can't call GetNumberCols() without a
693 @c const_cast from their const methods.
695 int GetColsCount() const;
699 @name Table Cell Accessors
704 May be overridden to implement testing for empty cells.
706 This method is used by the grid to test if the given cell is not used
707 and so whether a neighbouring cell may overflow into it. By default it
708 only returns true if the value of the given cell, as returned by
709 GetValue(), is empty.
711 virtual bool IsEmptyCell(int row
, int col
);
714 Same as IsEmptyCell() but taking wxGridCellCoords.
716 Notice that this method is not virtual, only IsEmptyCell() should be
719 bool IsEmpty(const wxGridCellCoords
& coords
);
722 Must be overridden to implement accessing the table values as text.
724 virtual wxString
GetValue(int row
, int col
) = 0;
727 Must be overridden to implement setting the table values as text.
729 virtual void SetValue(int row
, int col
, const wxString
& value
) = 0;
732 Returns the type of the value in the given cell.
734 By default all cells are strings and this method returns
735 @c wxGRID_VALUE_STRING.
737 virtual wxString
GetTypeName(int row
, int col
);
740 Returns true if the value of the given cell can be accessed as if it
741 were of the specified type.
743 By default the cells can only be accessed as strings. Note that a cell
744 could be accessible in different ways, e.g. a numeric cell may return
745 @true for @c wxGRID_VALUE_NUMBER but also for @c wxGRID_VALUE_STRING
746 indicating that the value can be coerced to a string form.
748 virtual bool CanGetValueAs(int row
, int col
, const wxString
& typeName
);
751 Returns true if the value of the given cell can be set as if it were of
756 virtual bool CanSetValueAs(int row
, int col
, const wxString
& typeName
);
759 Returns the value of the given cell as a long.
761 This should only be called if CanGetValueAs() returns @true when called
762 with @c wxGRID_VALUE_NUMBER argument. Default implementation always
765 virtual long GetValueAsLong(int row
, int col
);
768 Returns the value of the given cell as a double.
770 This should only be called if CanGetValueAs() returns @true when called
771 with @c wxGRID_VALUE_FLOAT argument. Default implementation always
774 virtual double GetValueAsDouble(int row
, int col
);
777 Returns the value of the given cell as a boolean.
779 This should only be called if CanGetValueAs() returns @true when called
780 with @c wxGRID_VALUE_BOOL argument. Default implementation always
783 virtual bool GetValueAsBool(int row
, int col
);
786 Returns the value of the given cell as a user-defined type.
788 This should only be called if CanGetValueAs() returns @true when called
789 with @a typeName. Default implementation always return @NULL.
791 virtual void *GetValueAsCustom(int row
, int col
, const wxString
& typeName
);
794 Sets the value of the given cell as a long.
796 This should only be called if CanSetValueAs() returns @true when called
797 with @c wxGRID_VALUE_NUMBER argument. Default implementation doesn't do
800 virtual void SetValueAsLong(int row
, int col
, long value
);
803 Sets the value of the given cell as a double.
805 This should only be called if CanSetValueAs() returns @true when called
806 with @c wxGRID_VALUE_FLOAT argument. Default implementation doesn't do
809 virtual void SetValueAsDouble(int row
, int col
, double value
);
812 Sets the value of the given cell as a boolean.
814 This should only be called if CanSetValueAs() returns @true when called
815 with @c wxGRID_VALUE_BOOL argument. Default implementation doesn't do
818 virtual void SetValueAsBool( int row
, int col
, bool value
);
821 Sets the value of the given cell as a user-defined type.
823 This should only be called if CanSetValueAs() returns @true when called
824 with @a typeName. Default implementation doesn't do anything.
826 virtual void SetValueAsCustom(int row
, int col
, const wxString
& typeName
,
833 Called by the grid when the table is associated with it.
835 The default implementation stores the pointer and returns it from its
836 GetView() and so only makes sense if the table cannot be associated
837 with more than one grid at a time.
839 virtual void SetView(wxGrid
*grid
);
842 Returns the last grid passed to SetView().
844 virtual wxGrid
*GetView() const;
848 @name Table Structure Modifiers
850 Notice that none of these functions are pure virtual as they don't have
851 to be implemented if the table structure is never modified after
852 creation, i.e. neither rows nor columns are never added or deleted but
853 that you do need to implement them if they are called, i.e. if your
854 code either calls them directly or uses the matching wxGrid methods, as
855 by default they simply do nothing which is definitely inappropriate.
860 Clear the table contents.
862 This method is used by wxGrid::ClearGrid().
864 virtual void Clear();
867 Insert additional rows into the table.
870 The position of the first new row.
872 The number of rows to insert.
874 virtual bool InsertRows(size_t pos
= 0, size_t numRows
= 1);
877 Append additional rows at the end of the table.
879 This method is provided in addition to InsertRows() as some data models
880 may only support appending rows to them but not inserting them at
881 arbitrary locations. In such case you may implement this method only
882 and leave InsertRows() unimplemented.
885 The number of rows to add.
887 virtual bool AppendRows(size_t numRows
= 1);
890 Delete rows from the table.
893 The first row to delete.
895 The number of rows to delete.
897 virtual bool DeleteRows(size_t pos
= 0, size_t numRows
= 1);
900 Exactly the same as InsertRows() but for columns.
902 virtual bool InsertCols(size_t pos
= 0, size_t numCols
= 1);
905 Exactly the same as AppendRows() but for columns.
907 virtual bool AppendCols(size_t numCols
= 1);
910 Exactly the same as DeleteRows() but for columns.
912 virtual bool DeleteCols(size_t pos
= 0, size_t numCols
= 1);
917 @name Table Row and Column Labels
919 By default the numbers are used for labeling rows and Latin letters for
920 labeling columns. If the table has more than 26 columns, the pairs of
921 letters are used starting from the 27-th one and so on, i.e. the
922 sequence of labels is A, B, ..., Z, AA, AB, ..., AZ, BA, ..., ..., ZZ,
928 Return the label of the specified row.
930 virtual wxString
GetRowLabelValue(int row
);
933 Return the label of the specified column.
935 virtual wxString
GetColLabelValue(int col
);
938 Set the given label for the specified row.
940 The default version does nothing, i.e. the label is not stored. You
941 must override this method in your derived class if you wish
942 wxGrid::SetRowLabelValue() to work.
944 virtual void SetRowLabelValue(int row
, const wxString
& label
);
947 Exactly the same as SetRowLabelValue() but for columns.
949 virtual void SetColLabelValue(int col
, const wxString
& label
);
955 @name Attributes Management
957 By default the attributes management is delegated to
958 wxGridCellAttrProvider class. You may override the methods in this
959 section to handle the attributes directly if, for example, they can be
960 computed from the cell values.
965 Associate this attributes provider with the table.
967 The table takes ownership of @a attrProvider pointer and will delete it
968 when it doesn't need it any more. The pointer can be @NULL, however
969 this won't disable attributes management in the table but will just
970 result in a default attributes being recreated the next time any of the
971 other functions in this section is called. To completely disable the
972 attributes support, should this be needed, you need to override
973 CanHaveAttributes() to return @false.
975 void SetAttrProvider(wxGridCellAttrProvider
*attrProvider
);
978 Returns the attribute provider currently being used.
980 This function may return @NULL if the attribute provider hasn't been
981 neither associated with this table by SetAttrProvider() nor created on
982 demand by any other methods.
984 wxGridCellAttrProvider
*GetAttrProvider() const;
987 Return the attribute for the given cell.
989 By default this function is simply forwarded to
990 wxGridCellAttrProvider::GetAttr() but it may be overridden to handle
991 attributes directly in the table.
993 virtual wxGridCellAttr
*GetAttr(int row
, int col
,
994 wxGridCellAttr::wxAttrKind kind
);
997 Set attribute of the specified cell.
999 By default this function is simply forwarded to
1000 wxGridCellAttrProvider::SetAttr().
1002 The table takes ownership of @a attr, i.e. will call DecRef() on it.
1004 virtual void SetAttr(wxGridCellAttr
* attr
, int row
, int col
);
1007 Set attribute of the specified row.
1009 By default this function is simply forwarded to
1010 wxGridCellAttrProvider::SetRowAttr().
1012 The table takes ownership of @a attr, i.e. will call DecRef() on it.
1014 virtual void SetRowAttr(wxGridCellAttr
*attr
, int row
);
1017 Set attribute of the specified column.
1019 By default this function is simply forwarded to
1020 wxGridCellAttrProvider::SetColAttr().
1022 The table takes ownership of @a attr, i.e. will call DecRef() on it.
1024 virtual void SetColAttr(wxGridCellAttr
*attr
, int col
);
1029 Returns true if this table supports attributes or false otherwise.
1031 By default, the table automatically creates a wxGridCellAttrProvider
1032 when this function is called if it had no attribute provider before and
1035 virtual bool CanHaveAttributes();
1039 @class wxGridSizesInfo
1041 wxGridSizesInfo stores information about sizes of all wxGrid rows or
1044 It assumes that most of the rows or columns (which are both called elements

1105 wxGrid and its related classes are used for displaying and editing tabular
1106 data. They provide a rich set of features for display, editing, and
1107 interacting with a variety of data sources. For simple applications, and to
1108 help you get started, wxGrid is the only class you need to refer to
1109 directly. It will set up default instances of the other classes and manage
1110 them for you. For more complex applications you can derive your own classes
1111 for custom grid views, grid data tables, cell editors and renderers. The
1112 @ref overview_grid has examples of simple and more complex applications,
1113 explains the relationship between the various grid classes and has a
1114 summary of the keyboard shortcuts and mouse functions provided by wxGrid.
1116 A wxGridTableBase class holds the actual data to be displayed by a wxGrid
1117 class. One or more wxGrid classes may act as a view for one table class.
1118 The default table class is called wxGridStringTable and holds an array of
1119 strings. An instance of such a class is created by CreateGrid().
1121 wxGridCellRenderer is the abstract base class for rendereing contents in a
1122 cell. The following renderers are predefined:
1124 - wxGridCellBoolRenderer
1125 - wxGridCellFloatRenderer
1126 - wxGridCellNumberRenderer
1127 - wxGridCellStringRenderer
1129 The look of a cell can be further defined using wxGridCellAttr. An object
1130 of this type may be returned by wxGridTableBase::GetAttr().
1132 wxGridCellEditor is the abstract base class for editing the value of a
1133 cell. The following editors are predefined:
1135 - wxGridCellBoolEditor
1136 - wxGridCellChoiceEditor
1137 - wxGridCellFloatEditor
1138 - wxGridCellNumberEditor
1139 - wxGridCellTextEditor
1141 Please see wxGridEvent, wxGridSizeEvent, wxGridRangeSelectEvent, and
1142 wxGridEditorCreatedEvent for the documentation of all event types you can

1155 Different selection modes supported by the grid.
1157 enum wxGridSelectionModes
1160 The default selection mode allowing selection of the individual
1161 cells as well as of the entire rows and columns.
1166 The selection mode allowing the selection of the entire rows only.
1168 The user won't be able to select any cells or columns in this mode.
1173 The selection mode allowing the selection of the entire columns only.
1175 The user won't be able to select any cells or rows in this mode.
1182 @name Constructors and Initialization
1187 Default constructor.
1189 You must call Create() to really create the grid window and also call
1190 CreateGrid() or SetTable() to initialize the grid contents.
1194 Constructor creating the grid window.
1196 You must call either CreateGrid() or SetTable() to initialize the grid
1197 contents before using it.

1208 This will also destroy the associated grid table unless you passed a
1209 table object to the grid and specified that the grid should not take
1210 ownership of the table (see SetTable()).

1228 Creates a grid with the specified initial number of rows and columns.
1230 Call this directly after the grid constructor. When you use this
1231 function wxGrid will create and manage a simple table of string values
1232 for you. All of the grid data will be stored in memory.
1234 For applications with more complex data types or relationships, or for
1235 dealing with very large datasets, you should derive your own grid table
1236 class and pass a table object to the grid with SetTable().
1238 bool CreateGrid(int numRows
, int numCols
,
1239 wxGridSelectionModes selmode
= wxGridSelectCells
);
1242 Passes a pointer to a custom grid table to be used by the grid.
1244 This should be called after the grid constructor and before using the
1245 grid object. If @a takeOwnership is set to @true then the table will be
1246 deleted by the wxGrid destructor.
1248 Use this function instead of CreateGrid() when your application
1249 involves complex or non-string data or data sets that are too large to
1250 fit wholly in memory.

1332 @name Label Values and Formatting
1337 Sets the arguments to the current column label alignment values.
1339 Horizontal alignment will be one of @c wxALIGN_LEFT, @c wxALIGN_CENTRE
1340 or @c wxALIGN_RIGHT.

GetLabelFont() const;
1374 Returns the colour used for row and column label text.
1376 wxColour
GetLabelTextColour() const;
1379 Returns the alignment used for row labels.
1381 Horizontal alignment will be one of @c wxALIGN_LEFT, @c wxALIGN_CENTRE
1382 or @c wxALIGN_RIGHT.
1384 Vertical alignment will be one of @c wxALIGN_TOP, @c wxALIGN_CENTRE or
1387 void GetRowLabelAlignment(int* horiz
, int* vert
) const;
1390 Returns the specified row label.
1392 The default grid table class provides numeric row labels. If you are
1393 using a custom grid table you can override
1394 wxGridTableBase::GetRowLabelValue() to provide your own labels.
1396 wxString
GetRowLabelValue(int row
) const;
1399 Hides the column labels by calling SetColLabelSize() with a size of 0.
1400 Show labels again by calling that method with a width greater than 0.

1405 Hides the row labels by calling SetRowLabelSize() with a size of 0.
1407 The labels can be shown again by calling SetRowLabelSize() with a width
1410 void HideRowLabels();
1413 Sets the horizontal and vertical alignment of column label text.
1415 Horizontal alignment should be one of @c wxALIGN_LEFT,
1416 @c wxALIGN_CENTRE or @c wxALIGN_RIGHT. Vertical alignment should be one
1417 of @c wxALIGN_TOP, @c wxALIGN_CENTRE or @c wxALIGN_BOTTOM.
1419 void SetColLabelAlignment(int horiz
, int vert
);
1422 Sets the orientation of the column labels (either @c wxHORIZONTAL or
1425 void SetColLabelTextOrientation(int textOrientation
);
1428 Set the value for the given column label.
1430 If you are using a custom grid table you must override
1431 wxGridTableBase::SetColLabelValue() for this to have any effect.

1455 of @c wxALIGN_TOP, @c wxALIGN_CENTRE or @c wxALIGN_BOTTOM.
1457 void SetRowLabelAlignment(int horiz
, int vert
);
1460 Sets the value for the given row label.
1462 If you are using a derived grid table you must override
1463 wxGridTableBase::SetRowLabelValue() for this to have any effect.
1465 void SetRowLabelValue(int row
, const wxString
& value
);
1468 Call this in order to make the column labels use a native look by using
1469 wxRendererNative::DrawHeaderButton() internally.
1471 There is no equivalent method for drawing row columns as there is not
1472 native look for that. This option is useful when using wxGrid for
1473 displaying tables and not as a spread-sheet.
1475 @see UseNativeColHeader()
1477 void SetUseNativeColLabels(bool native
= true);
1480 Enable the use of native header window for column labels.
1482 If this function is called with @true argument, a wxHeaderCtrl is used
1483 instead to display the column labels instead of drawing them in wxGrid
1484 code itself. This has the advantage of making the grid look and feel
1485 perfectly the same as native applications (using SetUseNativeColLabels()
1486 the grid can be made to look more natively but it still doesn't feel
1487 natively, notably the column resizing and dragging still works slightly
1488 differently as it is implemented in wxWidgets itself) but results in
1489 different behaviour for column and row headers, for which there is no
1490 equivalent function, and, most importantly, is unsuitable for grids
1491 with huge numbers of columns as wxHeaderCtrl doesn't support virtual
1492 mode. Because of this, by default the grid does not use the native
1493 header control but you should call this function to enable it if you
1494 are using the grid to display tabular data and don't have thousands of
1497 Also note that currently @c wxEVT_GRID_LABEL_LEFT_DCLICK and
1498 @c wxEVT_GRID_LABEL_RIGHT_DCLICK events are not generated for the column
1499 labels if the native columns header is used (but this limitation could
1500 possibly be lifted in the future).

= true);
1508 @name Cell Formatting
1510 Note that wxGridCellAttr can be used alternatively to most of these
1511 methods. See the "Attributes Management" of wxGridTableBase.
1516 Sets the arguments to the horizontal and vertical text alignment values
1517 for the grid cell at the specified location.
1519 Horizontal alignment will be one of @c wxALIGN_LEFT, @c wxALIGN_CENTRE

1647 methods. See the "Attributes Management" of wxGridTableBase.
1652 Returns @true if the in-place edit control for the current grid cell
1653 can be used and @false otherwise.
1655 This function always returns @false for the read-only cells.
1657 bool CanEnableCellControl() const;
1660 Disables in-place editing of grid cells.
1662 Equivalent to calling EnableCellEditControl(@false).
1664 void DisableCellEditControl();
1667 Enables or disables in-place editing of grid cell data.
1669 The grid will issue either a @c wxEVT_GRID_EDITOR_SHOWN or
1670 @c wxEVT_GRID_EDITOR_HIDDEN event.
1672 void EnableCellEditControl(bool enable
= true);
1675 Makes the grid globally editable or read-only.
1677 If the edit argument is @false this function sets the whole grid as
1678 read-only. If the argument is @true the grid is set to the default
1679 state where cells may be editable. In the default state you can set
1680 single grid cells and whole rows and columns to be editable or
1681 read-only via wxGridCellAttr::SetReadOnly(). For single cells you
1682 can also use the shortcut function SetReadOnly().

1850 Register a new data type.
1852 The data types allow to naturally associate specific renderers and
1853 editors to the cells containing values of the given type. For example,
1854 the grid automatically registers a data type with the name
1855 @c wxGRID_VALUE_STRING which uses wxGridCellStringRenderer and
1856 wxGridCellTextEditor as its renderer and editor respectively -- this is
1857 the data type used by all the cells of the default wxGridStringTable,
1858 so this renderer and editor are used by default for all grid cells.
1860 However if a custom table returns @c wxGRID_VALUE_BOOL from its
1861 wxGridTableBase::GetTypeName() method, then wxGridCellBoolRenderer and
1862 wxGridCellBoolEditor are used for it because the grid also registers a
1863 boolean data type with this name.
1865 And as this mechanism is completely generic, you may register your own
1866 data types using your own custom renderers and editors. Just remember
1867 that the table must identify a cell as being of the given type for them
1868 to be used for this cell.
1871 Name of the new type. May be any string, but if the type name is

1875 and @c wxGRID_VALUE_CHOICE), then the new registration information
1876 replaces the previously used renderer and editor.
1878 The renderer to use for the cells of this type. Its ownership is
1879 taken by the grid, i.e. it will call DecRef() on this pointer when
1880 it doesn't need it any longer.

1890 Sets the value of the current grid cell to the current in-place edit
1893 This is called automatically when the grid cursor moves from the
1894 current cell to a new cell. It is also a good idea to call this
1895 function when closing a grid since any edits to the final cell location
1896 will not be saved otherwise.

1977 This method provides an alternative to defining a custom grid table
1978 which would return @a typeName from its GetTypeName() method for the
1979 cells in this column: while it doesn't really change the type of the

2883 The x position to evaluate.
2885 If @true, rather than returning @c wxNOT_FOUND, it returns either
2886 the first or last column depending on whether @a x is too far to

2995 Increments the grid's batch count.
2997 When the count is greater than zero repainting of the grid is
2998 suppressed. Each call to BeginBatch must be matched by a later call to
2999 EndBatch(). Code that does a lot of grid modification can be enclosed
3000 between BeginBatch() and EndBatch() calls to avoid screen flicker. The
3001 final EndBatch() call will cause the grid to be repainted.
3003 Notice that you should use wxGridUpdateLocker which ensures that there
3004 is always a matching EndBatch() call for this BeginBatch() if possible
3005 instead of calling this method directly.
3010 Clears all data in the underlying grid table and repaints the grid.
3012 The table is not deleted by this function. If you are using a derived
3013 table class then you need to override wxGridTableBase::Clear() for this
3014 function to have any effect.

3094 Returns the number of times that BeginBatch() has been called without
3095 (yet) matching calls to EndBatch(). While the grid's batch count is
3096 greater than zero the display will not be updated.
3098 int GetBatchCount();
3101 Returns the total number of grid columns.
3103 This is the same as the number of columns in the underlying grid table.
3105 int GetNumberCols() const;
3108 Returns the total number of grid rows.
3110 This is the same as the number of rows in the underlying grid table.
3112 int GetNumberRows() const;
3115 Returns the attribute for the given cell creating one if necessary.
3117 If the cell already has an attribute, it is returned. Otherwise a new
3118 attribute is created, associated with the cell and returned. In any
3119 case the caller must call DecRef() on the returned pointer.
3121 This function may only be called if CanHaveAttributes() returns @true.
3123 wxGridCellAttr
*GetOrCreateCellAttr(int row
, int col

3126 Returns a base pointer to the current table object.
3128 The returned pointer is still owned by the grid.
3130 wxGridTableBase
*GetTable() const;
3133 Inserts one or more new columns into a grid with the first new column
3134 at the specified position.
3136 Notice that inserting the columns in the grid requires grid table
3137 cooperation: when this method is called, grid object begins by
3138 requesting the underlying grid table to insert new columns. If this is
3139 successful the table notifies the grid and the grid updates the
3140 display. For a default grid (one where you have called CreateGrid())
3141 this process is automatic. If you are using a custom grid table
3142 (specified with SetTable()) then you must override
3143 wxGridTableBase::InsertCols() in your derived table class.
3146 The position which the first newly inserted column will have.

3186 Sets the extra margins used around the grid area.
3188 A grid may occupy more space than needed for its data display and
3189 this function allows to set how big this extra space is
3191 void SetMargins(int extraWidth
, int extraHeight
);
3194 Sets the cell attributes for all cells in the specified row.
3196 The grid takes ownership of the attribute pointer.

3207 @name Sorting support.
3209 wxGrid doesn't provide any support for sorting the data but it does
3210 generate events allowing the user code to sort it and supports
3211 displaying the sort indicator in the column used for sorting.
3213 To use wxGrid sorting support you need to handle wxEVT_GRID_COL_SORT
3214 event (and not veto it) and resort the data displayed in the grid. The
3215 grid will automatically update the sorting indicator on the column
3218 You can also call the functions in this section directly to update the
3219 sorting indicator. Once again, they don't do anything with the grid
3220 data, it remains your responsibility to actually sort it appropriately.
3225 Return the column in which the sorting indicator is currently
3228 Returns @c wxNOT_FOUND if sorting indicator is not currently displayed
3231 @see SetSortingColumn()
3233 int GetSortingColumn() const;
3236 Return @true if this column is currently used for sorting.
3238 @see GetSortingColumn()
3240 bool IsSortingBy(int col
) const;
3243 Return @true if the current sorting order is ascending or @false if it
3246 It only makes sense to call this function if GetSortingColumn() returns
3247 a valid column index and not @c wxNOT_FOUND.
3249 @see SetSortingColumn()
3251 bool IsSortOrderAscending() const;
3254 Set the column to display the sorting indicator in and its direction.
3257 The column to display the sorting indicator in or @c wxNOT_FOUND to
3258 remove any currently displayed sorting indicator.
3260 If @true, display the ascending sort indicator, otherwise display
3261 the descending sort indicator.
3263 @see GetSortingColumn(), IsSortOrderAscending()
3265 void SetSortingColumn(int col
, bool ascending
= true);
3268 Remove any currently shown sorting indicator.
3270 This is equivalent to calling SetSortingColumn() with @c wxNOT_FOUND
3273 void UnsetSortingColumn();
3278 @name Accessors for component windows.
3280 Return the various child windows of wxGrid.
3282 wxGrid is an empty parent window for 4 children representing the column
3283 labels window (top), the row labels window (left), the corner window
3284 (top left) and the main grid window. It may be necessary to use these
3285 individual windows and not the wxGrid window itself if you need to
3286 handle events for them (this can be done using wxEvtHandler::Connect()
3287 or wxWindow::PushEventHandler()) or do something else requiring the use
3288 of the correct window pointer. Notice that you should not, however,
3289 change these windows (e.g. reposition them or draw over them) because
3290 they are managed by wxGrid itself.
3295 Return the main grid window containing the grid cells.
3297 This window is always shown.
3299 wxWindow
*GetGridWindow() const;
3302 Return the row labels window.
3304 This window is not shown if the row labels were hidden using
3307 wxWindow
*GetGridRowLabelWindow() const;
3310 Return the column labels window.
3312 This window is not shown if the columns labels were hidden using
3315 Depending on whether UseNativeColHeader() was called or not this can be
3316 either a wxHeaderCtrl or a plain wxWindow. This function returns a valid
3317 window pointer in either case but in the former case you can also use
3318 GetGridColHeader() to access it if you need wxHeaderCtrl-specific
3321 wxWindow
*GetGridColLabelWindow() const;
3324 Return the window in the top left grid corner.
3326 This window is shown only of both columns and row labels are shown and
3327 normally doesn't contain anything. Clicking on it is handled by wxGrid
3328 however and can be used to select the entire grid.
3330 wxWindow
*GetGridCornerLabelWindow() const;
3333 Return the header control used for column labels display.
3335 This function can only be called if UseNativeColHeader() had been
3338 wxHeaderCtrl
*GetGridColHeader() const;
3344 Returns @true if this grid has support for cell attributes.
3346 The grid supports attributes if it has the associated table which, in
3347 turn, has attributes support, i.e. wxGridTableBase::CanHaveAttributes()
3350 bool CanHaveAttributes() const;
3353 Get the minimal width of the given column/row.
3355 The value returned by this function may be different than that returned
3356 by GetColMinimalAcceptableWidth() if SetColMinimalWidth() had been
3357 called for this column.
3359 int GetColMinimalWidth(int col
) const;
3362 Returns the coordinate of the right border specified column.
3364 int GetColRight(int col
) const;
3367 Returns the coordinate of the left border specified column.
3369 int GetColLeft(int col
) const;
3372 Returns the minimal size for the given column.
3374 The value returned by this function may be different than that returned
3375 by GetRowMinimalAcceptableHeight() if SetRowMinimalHeight() had been
3376 called for this row.
3378 int GetRowMinimalHeight(int col
) const;
3384 @class wxGridUpdateLocker
3386 This small class can be used to prevent wxGrid from redrawing during its
3387 lifetime by calling wxGrid::BeginBatch() in its constructor and
3388 wxGrid::EndBatch() in its destructor. It is typically used in a function
3389 performing several operations with a grid which would otherwise result in
3390 flicker. For example:
3395 m_grid = new wxGrid(this, ...);
3397 wxGridUpdateLocker noUpdates(m_grid);
3398 m_grid-AppendColumn();
3399 // ... many other operations with m_grid ...
3402 // destructor called, grid refreshed
3406 Using this class is easier and safer than calling wxGrid::BeginBatch() and
3407 wxGrid::EndBatch() because you don't risk missing the call the latter (due
3408 to an exception for example).
3413 class wxGridUpdateLocker
3417 Creates an object preventing the updates of the specified @a grid. The
3418 parameter could be @NULL in which case nothing is done. If @a grid is
3419 non-@NULL then the grid must exist for longer than this
3420 wxGridUpdateLocker object itself.
3422 The default constructor could be followed by a call to Create() to set
3423 the grid object later.
3425 wxGridUpdateLocker(wxGrid
* grid
= NULL
);
3428 Destructor reenables updates for the grid this object is associated
3431 ~wxGridUpdateLocker();
3434 This method can be called if the object had been constructed using the
3435 default constructor. It must not be called more than once.
3437 void Create(wxGrid
* grid
);
3445 This event class contains information about various grid events.
3447 Notice that all grid event table macros are available in two versions:
3448 @c EVT_GRID_XXX and @c EVT_GRID_CMD_XXX. The only difference between the
3449 two is that the former doesn't allow to specify the grid window identifier
3450 and so takes a single parameter, the event handler, but is not suitable if
3451 there is more than one grid control in the window where the event table is
3452 used (as it would catch the events from all the grids). The version with @c
3453 CMD takes the id as first argument and the event handler as the second one
3454 and so can be used with multiple grids as well. Otherwise there are no
3455 difference between the two and only the versions without the id are
3456 documented below for brevity.
3458 @beginEventTable{wxGridEvent}
3459 @event{EVT_GRID_CELL_CHANGING(func)}
3460 The user is about to change the data in a cell. The new cell value as
3461 string is available from GetString() event object method. This event
3462 can be vetoed if the change is not allowed.
3463 Processes a @c wxEVT_GRID_CELL_CHANGING event type.
3464 @event{EVT_GRID_CELL_CHANGED(func)}
3465 The user changed the data in a cell. The old cell value as string is
3466 available from GetString() event object method. Notice that vetoing
3467 this event still works for backwards compatibility reasons but any new
3468 code should only veto EVT_GRID_CELL_CHANGING event and not this one.
3469 Processes a @c wxEVT_GRID_CELL_CHANGED event type.
3470 @event{EVT_GRID_CELL_LEFT_CLICK(func)}
3471 The user clicked a cell with the left mouse button. Processes a
3472 @c wxEVT_GRID_CELL_LEFT_CLICK event type.
3473 @event{EVT_GRID_CELL_LEFT_DCLICK(func)}
3474 The user double-clicked a cell with the left mouse button. Processes a
3475 @c wxEVT_GRID_CELL_LEFT_DCLICK event type.

3483 The editor for a cell was hidden. Processes a
3484 @c wxEVT_GRID_EDITOR_HIDDEN event type.
3485 @event{EVT_GRID_EDITOR_SHOWN(func)}
3486 The editor for a cell was shown. Processes a
3487 @c wxEVT_GRID_EDITOR_SHOWN event type.
3488 @event{EVT_GRID_LABEL_LEFT_CLICK(func)}
3489 The user clicked a label with the left mouse button. Processes a
3490 @c wxEVT_GRID_LABEL_LEFT_CLICK event type.
3491 @event{EVT_GRID_LABEL_LEFT_DCLICK(func)}
3492 The user double-clicked a label with the left mouse button. Processes a
3493 @c wxEVT_GRID_LABEL_LEFT_DCLICK event type.
3494 @event{EVT_GRID_LABEL_RIGHT_CLICK(func)}
3495 The user clicked a label with the right mouse button. Processes a
3496 @c wxEVT_GRID_LABEL_RIGHT_CLICK event type.
3497 @event{EVT_GRID_LABEL_RIGHT_DCLICK(func)}
3498 The user double-clicked a label with the right mouse button. Processes
3499 a @c wxEVT_GRID_LABEL_RIGHT_DCLICK event type.
3500 @event{EVT_GRID_SELECT_CELL(func)}
3501 The user moved to, and selected a cell. Processes a
3502 @c wxEVT_GRID_SELECT_CELL event type.
3503 @event{EVT_GRID_COL_MOVE(func)}
3504 The user tries to change the order of the columns in the grid by
3505 dragging the column specified by GetCol(). This event can be vetoed to
3506 either prevent the user from reordering the column change completely
3507 (but notice that if you don't want to allow it at all, you simply
3508 shouldn't call wxGrid::EnableDragColMove() in the first place), vetoed
3509 but handled in some way in the handler, e.g. by really moving the
3510 column to the new position at the associated table level, or allowed to
3511 proceed in which case wxGrid::SetColPos() is used to reorder the
3512 columns display order without affecting the use of the column indices
3514 This event macro corresponds to @c wxEVT_GRID_COL_MOVE event type.
3515 @event{EVT_GRID_COL_SORT(func)}
3516 This event is generated when a column is clicked by the user and its
3517 name is explained by the fact that the custom reaction to a click on a
3518 column is to sort the grid contents by this column. However the grid
3519 itself has no special support for sorting and it's up to the handler of
3520 this event to update the associated table. But if the event is handled
3521 (and not vetoed) the grid supposes that the table was indeed resorted
3522 and updates the column to indicate the new sort order and refreshes
3524 This event macro corresponds to @c wxEVT_GRID_COL_SORT event type.
