10 @class wxSplitterWindow
11
12 This class manages up to two subwindows. The current view can be split
13 into two programmatically (perhaps from a menu command), and unsplit
14 either programmatically or via the wxSplitterWindow user interface.

16 @beginStyleTable
17 @style{wxSP_3D}
18 Draws a 3D effect border and sash.
19 @style{wxSP_THIN_SASH}
20 Draws a thin sash.
21 @style{wxSP_3DSASH}
22 Draws a 3D effect sash (part of default style).
23 @style{wxSP_3DBORDER}
24 Synonym for wxSP_BORDER.
25 @style{wxSP_BORDER}
26 Draws a standard border.
27 @style{wxSP_NOBORDER}
28 No border (default).
29 @style{wxSP_NO_XP_THEME}
30 Under Windows XP, switches off the attempt to draw the splitter
31 using Windows XP theming, so the borders and sash will take on the
32 pre-XP look.
33 @style{wxSP_PERMIT_UNSPLIT}
34 Always allow to unsplit, even with the minimum pane size other than zero.
35 @style{wxSP_LIVE_UPDATE}
36 Don't draw XOR line but resize the child windows immediately.

40 @beginEventEmissionTable{wxSplitterEvent}
41 @event{EVT_SPLITTER_SASH_POS_CHANGING(id, func)}
42 The sash position is in the process of being changed.
43 May be used to modify the position of the tracking bar to properly
44 reflect the position that would be set if the drag were to be completed
45 at this point. Processes a @c wxEVT_COMMAND_SPLITTER_SASH_POS_CHANGING event.
46 @event{EVT_SPLITTER_SASH_POS_CHANGED(id, func)}
47 The sash position was changed. May be used to modify the sash position
48 before it is set, or to prevent the change from taking place.
49 Processes a @c wxEVT_COMMAND_SPLITTER_SASH_POS_CHANGED event.
50 @event{EVT_SPLITTER_UNSPLIT(id, func)}
51 The splitter has been just unsplit. Processes a @c wxEVT_COMMAND_SPLITTER_UNSPLIT event.
52 @event{EVT_SPLITTER_DCLICK(id, func)}
53 The sash was double clicked. The default behaviour is to unsplit the
54 window when this happens (unless the minimum pane size has been set
55 to a value greater than zero). Processes a @c wxEVT_COMMAND_SPLITTER_DOUBLECLICKED event.
