11 wxWindow is the base class for all windows. Any
12 children of the window will be deleted automatically by the destructor
13 before the window itself is deleted.<P>

398 <B>virtual bool</B> <B>Close</B>(<B>const bool</B><I> force = FALSE</I>)<P>
399 The purpose of this call is to provide a safer way of destroying a window than using
400 the <I>delete</I> operator.<P>
401 <B><FONT COLOR="#FF0000">Parameters</FONT></B><P>
402 <I>force</I><UL><UL>

404 of this window, TRUE if it cannot.</UL></UL>
405 <P>
406 <B><FONT COLOR="#FF0000">Remarks</FONT></B><P>
407 Close calls the <A HREF="wx45.htm#wxcloseevent">close handler</A> for the window, providing an opportunity for the window to
408 choose whether to destroy the window.<P>
409 The close handler should check whether the window is being deleted forcibly,
410 using <A HREF="wx45.htm#wxcloseeventgetforce">wxCloseEvent::GetForce</A>, in which case it should
411 destroy the window using <A HREF="wx260.htm#wxwindowdestroy">wxWindow::Destroy</A>.<P>
412 Applies to managed windows (wxFrame and wxDialog classes) only.<P>
413 <I>Note</I> that calling Close does not guarantee that the window will be destroyed; but it
414 provides a way to simulate a manual close of a window, which may or may not be implemented by
415 destroying the window. The default implementation of wxDialog::OnCloseWindow does not
416 necessarily delete the dialog, since it will simply simulate an wxID_CANCEL event which
417 itself only hides the dialog.<P>
418 To guarantee that the window will be destroyed, call <A HREF="wx260.htm#wxwindowdestroy">wxWindow::Destroy</A> instead.<P>

2190 Let's say you wish to display 50 lines of text, using the same font.
2191 The window is sized so that you can only see 16 lines at a time.<P>
2192 You would use:<P>
2193 <FONT SIZE=2><PRE>
2194 SetScrollbar(wxVERTICAL, 0, 16, 50);
2195 </PRE>
2196 </FONT><P>
2197 Note that with the window at this size, the thumb position can never go
2198 above 50 minus 16, or 34.<P>
2199 You can determine how many lines are currently visible by dividing the current view
2200 size by the character height in pixels.<P>
2201 When defining your own scrollbar behaviour, you will always need to recalculate
2202 the scrollbar settings when the window size changes. You could therefore put your
2203 scrollbar calculations and SetScrollbar
2204 call into a function named AdjustScrollbars, which can be called initially and also
2205 from your <A HREF="wx260.htm#wxwindowonsize">wxWindow::OnSize</A> event handler function.<P>
