# TODO List
#
# All The C++ TODOs Are Still Alive. I Am Not Able to Read Jorges's Mind
# So I Don't Really Know What Will Be The New Features/Additions He Will
# Make On His Code. At The Moment They Are:
#
# 1. OnPaint Function In CaptionBar Class:
# TODO: Maybe First A Memory Dc Should Draw All, And Then Paint It On The
# Caption. This Way A Flickering Arrow During Resize Is Not Visible.
#
# 2. OnChar Function In CaptionBar Class:
# TODO: This Is Easy To Do But I Don't Have Any Useful Idea On Which Kind
# Of Features To Add. Does Anyone Have An Intelligent Idea?
#
# 3. AddFoldPanelWindow Function In FoldPanelBar Class:
# TODO: Take Old And New Heights, And If Difference, Reposition All The
# Lower Panels. This Is Because The User Can Add New wxWindow Controls
# Somewhere In Between When Other Panels Are Already Present.
# Don't Know What It Means. Probably Is My Poor English...
#
# 4. OnSizePanel Function In FoldPanelBar Class:
# TODO: A Smart Way To Check Wether The Old - New Width Of The
# Panel Changed, If So No Need To Resize The Fold Panel Items
#
# 5. Implementing Styles Like FPB_SINGLE_FOLD and FPB_EXCLUSIVE_FOLD
# TODO: Jorgen Has Left Undone These Jobs. I Don't Really Get What They
# Should Supposed To Do, So If Someone Could Enlight Me, Please Let Me Know.
#
#
# For The Original TODO List From Jorgen, Please Refer To:

"""
The `FoldPanelBar` is a control that contains multiple panels (of type
`FoldPanelItem`) that can be expanded or collapsed. The captionbar of
the FoldPanel can be customized by setting it to a horizontal gradient
style, vertical gradient style, a single color, a rectangle or filled
rectangle. The FoldPanel items can be collapsed in place or to the
bottom of the control. `wx.Window` derived controls can be added
dynamically, and separated by separator lines.  FoldPanelBar is
freeware and distributed under the wxPython license.
 
   
How does it work
----------------

The internals of the FoldPanelBar is a list of FoldPanelItem objects. Through
the reference of FoldPanel these panels can be controlled by adding new controls
to a FoldPanel or adding new FoldPanels to the FoldPanelBar. 
The CaptionBar fires events to the parent (container of all panel items) when a
sub-panel needs resizing (either folding or expanding). The fold or expand process
is simply a resize of the panel so it looks like all controls on it are gone. All
controls are still child of the FoldPanel they are located on. If they don't
handle the event (and they won't) then the owner of the FoldPanelBar gets the
events. This is what you need to handle the controls. There isn't much to it just
a lot of calculations to see what panel belongs where. There are no sizers
involved in the panels, everything is purely x-y positioning. 


What can it do and what not?
----------------------------

    a) What it can do:
        * Run-time addition of panels (no deletion just yet) 
        * Run time addition of controls to the panel (it will be resized accordingly)
        * Creating panels in collapsed mode or expanded mode 
        * Various modes of caption behaviour and filling to make it more appealing 
        * Panels can be folded and collapsed (or all of them) to allow more space
        
    b) What it cannot do:

        * Selection of a panel like in a list ctrl 
        * Dragging and dropping the panels 
        * Re-ordering the panels (not yet)  

 
Supported platforms
-------------------

FoldPanelBar is supported on the following platforms: 
  * Windows (Verified on Windows XP, 2000)
  * Linux/Unix (GTK2) (Thanks To Toni Brkic And Robin Dunn)
  * Mac OSX (Thanks To Robin Dunn For The CaptionBar Size Patch)

        Adds a `wx.Window` derived instance to the referenced
        FoldPanel.

        IMPORTANT: Make the window be a child of the FoldPanel. See
        example that follows. The flags to be used are:
        
            * FPB_ALIGN_WIDTH: Which means the wxWindow to be added
              will be aligned to fit the width of the FoldPanel when
              it is resized.  Very handy for sizer items, buttons and
              text boxes.

            * FPB_ALIGN_LEFT: Alligns left instead of fitting the
              width of the child window to be added. Use either this
              one or FPB_ALIGN_WIDTH.

        The wx.Window to be added can be slightly indented from left
        and right so it is more visibly placed in the FoldPanel. Use
        Spacing > 0 to give the control an y offset from the previous
        wx.Window added, use leftSpacing to give it a slight indent
        from the left, and rightSpacing also reserves a little space
        on the right so the wxWindow can be properly placed in the
        FoldPanel.
