841 @class wxTextCtrl
842
843 A text control allows text to be displayed and edited.
844
845 It may be single line or multi-line. Notice that a lot of methods of the
846 text controls are found in the base wxTextEntry class which is a common
847 base class for wxTextCtrl and other controls using a single line text entry
848 field (e.g. wxComboBox).
849
850 @beginStyleTable
851 @style{wxTE_PROCESS_ENTER}
852 The control will generate the event @c wxEVT_COMMAND_TEXT_ENTER
853 (otherwise pressing Enter key is either processed internally by the
854 control or used for navigation between dialog controls).
855 @style{wxTE_PROCESS_TAB}
856 The control will receive @c wxEVT_CHAR events for TAB pressed -
857 normally, TAB is used for passing to the next control in a dialog
858 instead. For the control created with this style, you can still use
859 Ctrl-Enter to pass to the next control from the keyboard.
860 @style{wxTE_MULTILINE}
861 The text control allows multiple lines. If this style is not
862 specified, line break characters should not be used in the controls
863 value.
864 @style{wxTE_PASSWORD}
865 The text will be echoed as asterisks.
866 @style{wxTE_READONLY}
867 The text will not be user-editable.
868 @style{wxTE_RICH}
869 Use rich text control under Win32, this allows to have more than
870 64KB of text in the control even under Win9x. This style is ignored
871 under other platforms.
872 @style{wxTE_RICH2}
873 Use rich text control version 2.0 or 3.0 under Win32, this style is
874 ignored under other platforms
875 @style{wxTE_AUTO_URL}
876 Highlight the URLs and generate the wxTextUrlEvents when mouse
877 events occur over them. This style is only supported for wxTE_RICH
878 Win32 and multi-line wxGTK2 text controls.
879 @style{wxTE_NOHIDESEL}
880 By default, the Windows text control doesn't show the selection
881 when it doesn't have focus - use this style to force it to always
882 show it. It doesn't do anything under other platforms.
883 @style{wxHSCROLL}
884 A horizontal scrollbar will be created and used, so that text won't
885 be wrapped. No effect under wxGTK1.
886 @style{wxTE_NO_VSCROLL}
887 For multiline controls only: vertical scrollbar will never be
888 created. This limits the amount of text which can be entered into
889 the control to what can be displayed in it under MSW but not under
890 GTK2. Currently not implemented for the other platforms.
891 @style{wxTE_LEFT}
892 The text in the control will be left-justified (default).
893 @style{wxTE_CENTRE}
894 The text in the control will be centered (currently wxMSW and
895 wxGTK2 only).
896 @style{wxTE_RIGHT}
897 The text in the control will be right-justified (currently wxMSW
898 and wxGTK2 only).
899 @style{wxTE_DONTWRAP}
900 Same as wxHSCROLL style: don't wrap at all, show horizontal
901 scrollbar instead.
902 @style{wxTE_CHARWRAP}
903 Wrap the lines too long to be shown entirely at any position
904 (wxUniv and wxGTK2 only).
905 @style{wxTE_WORDWRAP}
906 Wrap the lines too long to be shown entirely at word boundaries
907 (wxUniv and wxGTK2 only).
908 @style{wxTE_BESTWRAP}
909 Wrap the lines at word boundaries or at any other character if
910 there are words longer than the window width (this is the default).
911 @style{wxTE_CAPITALIZE}
912 On PocketPC and Smartphone, causes the first letter to be
913 capitalized.
914 @endStyleTable
915
916 Note that alignment styles (wxTE_LEFT, wxTE_CENTRE and wxTE_RIGHT) can be
917 changed dynamically after control creation on wxMSW and wxGTK. wxTE_READONLY,
918 wxTE_PASSWORD and wrapping styles can be dynamically changed under wxGTK but
919 not wxMSW. The other styles can be only set during control creation.
920
921
922 @section textctrl_text_format wxTextCtrl Text Format
923
924 The multiline text controls always store the text as a sequence of lines
925 separated by @c '\\n' characters, i.e. in the Unix text format even on
926 non-Unix platforms. This allows the user code to ignore the differences
927 between the platforms but at a price: the indices in the control such as
928 those returned by GetInsertionPoint() or GetSelection() can @b not be used
929 as indices into the string returned by GetValue() as they're going to be
930 slightly off for platforms using @c "\\r\\n" as separator (as Windows
931 does).
932
933 Instead, if you need to obtain a substring between the 2 indices obtained
934 from the control with the help of the functions mentioned above, you should
935 use GetRange(). And the indices themselves can only be passed to other
936 methods, for example SetInsertionPoint() or SetSelection().
937
938 To summarize: never use the indices returned by (multiline) wxTextCtrl as
939 indices into the string it contains, but only as arguments to be passed
940 back to the other wxTextCtrl methods. This problem doesn't arise for
941 single-line platforms however where the indices in the control do
942 correspond to the positions in the value string.
943
944
945 @section textctrl_styles wxTextCtrl Styles.
946
947 Multi-line text controls support styling, i.e. provide a possibility to set
948 colours and font for individual characters in it (note that under Windows
949 @c wxTE_RICH style is required for style support). To use the styles you
950 can either call SetDefaultStyle() before inserting the text or call
951 SetStyle() later to change the style of the text already in the control
952 (the first solution is much more efficient).
953
954 In either case, if the style doesn't specify some of the attributes (for
955 example you only want to set the text colour but without changing the font
956 nor the text background), the values of the default style will be used for
957 them. If there is no default style, the attributes of the text control
958 itself are used.
959
960 So the following code correctly describes what it does: the second call to
961 SetDefaultStyle() doesn't change the text foreground colour (which stays
962 red) while the last one doesn't change the background colour (which stays
963 grey):
964
965 @code
966 text->SetDefaultStyle(wxTextAttr(*wxRED));
967 text->AppendText("Red text\n");
968 text->SetDefaultStyle(wxTextAttr(wxNullColour, *wxLIGHT_GREY));
969 text->AppendText("Red on grey text\n");
970 text->SetDefaultStyle(wxTextAttr(*wxBLUE);
971 text->AppendText("Blue on grey text\n");
972 @endcode
973
974
975 @section textctrl_cpp_streams wxTextCtrl and C++ Streams
976
977 This class multiply-inherits from @c std::streambuf (except for some really
978 old compilers using non-standard iostream library), allowing code such as
979 the following:
980
981 @code
982 wxTextCtrl *control = new wxTextCtrl(...);
983
984 ostream stream(control)
985
986 stream << 123.456 << " some text\n";
987 stream.flush();
988 @endcode
989
990 Note that even if your compiler doesn't support this (the symbol
991 @c wxHAS_TEXT_WINDOW_STREAM has value of 0 then) you can still use
992 wxTextCtrl itself in a stream-like manner:
993
994 @code
995 wxTextCtrl *control = new wxTextCtrl(...);
996
997 *control << 123.456 << " some text\n";
998 @endcode
999
1000 However the possibility to create an ostream associated with wxTextCtrl may
1001 be useful if you need to redirect the output of a function taking an
1002 ostream as parameter to a text control.
1003
1004 Another commonly requested need is to redirect @c std::cout to the text
1005 control. This may be done in the following way:
1006
1007 @code
1008 #include <iostream>
1009
1010 wxTextCtrl *control = new wxTextCtrl(...);
1011
1012 std::streambuf *sbOld = std::cout.rdbuf();
1013 std::cout.rdbuf(control);
1014
1015 // use cout as usual, the output appears in the text control
1016 ...
1017
1018 std::cout.rdbuf(sbOld);
1019 @endcode
1020
1021 But wxWidgets provides a convenient class to make it even simpler so
1022 instead you may just do
1023
1024 @code
1025 #include <iostream>
1026
1027 wxTextCtrl *control = new wxTextCtrl(...);
1028
1029 wxStreamToTextRedirector redirect(control);
1030
1031 // all output to cout goes into the text control until the exit from
1032 // current scope
1033 @endcode
1034
1035 See wxStreamToTextRedirector for more details.
1036
1037
1038 @section textctrl_event_handling Event Handling.
1039
1040 The following commands are processed by default event handlers in
1041 wxTextCtrl: @c wxID_CUT, @c wxID_COPY, @c wxID_PASTE, @c wxID_UNDO, @c
1042 wxID_REDO. The associated UI update events are also processed
1043 automatically, when the control has the focus.
1044
1045 @beginEventEmissionTable{wxCommandEvent}
1046 @event{EVT_TEXT(id, func)}
1047 Respond to a @c wxEVT_COMMAND_TEXT_UPDATED event, generated when the text
1048 changes. Notice that this event will be sent when the text controls
1049 contents changes -- whether this is due to user input or comes from the
1050 program itself (for example, if wxTextCtrl::SetValue() is called); see
1051 wxTextCtrl::ChangeValue() for a function which does not send this event.
1052 This event is however not sent during the control creation.
1053 @event{EVT_TEXT_ENTER(id, func)}
1054 Respond to a @c wxEVT_COMMAND_TEXT_ENTER event, generated when enter is
1055 pressed in a text control which must have wxTE_PROCESS_ENTER style for
1056 this event to be generated.
1057 @event{EVT_TEXT_URL(id, func)}
1058 A mouse event occurred over an URL in the text control (wxMSW and
1059 wxGTK2 only currently).
1060 @event{EVT_TEXT_MAXLEN(id, func)}
1061 This event is generated when the user tries to enter more text into the
1062 control than the limit set by wxTextCtrl::SetMaxLength(), see its description.
