12 A list control presents lists in a number of formats: list view, report view,
13 icon view and small icon view. In any case, elements are numbered from zero.
14 For all these modes, the items are stored in the control and must be added to
15 it using wxListCtrl::InsertItem method.
17 A special case of report view quite different from the other modes of the list
18 control is a virtual control in which the items data (including text, images
19 and attributes) is managed by the main program and is requested by the control
20 itself only when needed which allows to have controls with millions of items
21 without consuming much memory. To use virtual list control you must use
22 wxListCtrl::SetItemCount first and overload at least wxListCtrl::OnGetItemText
23 (and optionally wxListCtrl::OnGetItemImage or wxListCtrl::OnGetItemColumnImage and
24 wxListCtrl::OnGetItemAttr) to return the information about the items when the
27 Virtual list control can be used as a normal one except that no operations
28 which can take time proportional to the number of items in the control happen
29 -- this is required to allow having a practically infinite number of items.
30 For example, in a multiple selection virtual list control, the selections won't
31 be sent when many items are selected at once because this could mean iterating
34 Using many of wxListCtrl features is shown in the
35 @ref page_samples_listctrl "corresponding sample".
37 To intercept events from a list control, use the event table macros described
40 <b>wxMac Note</b>: Starting with wxWidgets 2.8, wxListCtrl uses a native
41 implementation for report mode, and uses a generic implementation for other
42 modes. You can use the generic implementation for report mode as well by setting
43 the @c mac.listctrl.always_use_generic system option (see wxSystemOptions) to 1.
48 Multicolumn list view, with optional small icons. Columns are
49 computed automatically, i.e. you don't set columns as in
50 @c wxLC_REPORT. In other words, the list wraps, unlike a wxListBox.
52 Single or multicolumn report view, with optional header.
54 The application provides items text on demand. May only be used
57 Large icon view, with optional labels.
58 @style{wxLC_SMALL_ICON}
59 Small icon view, with optional labels.
60 @style{wxLC_ALIGN_TOP}
61 Icons align to the top. Win32 default, Win32 only.
62 @style{wxLC_ALIGN_LEFT}
63 Icons align to the left.
64 @style{wxLC_AUTOARRANGE}
65 Icons arrange themselves. Win32 only.
66 @style{wxLC_EDIT_LABELS}
67 Labels are editable: the application will be notified when editing
69 @style{wxLC_NO_HEADER}
70 No header in report mode.
71 @style{wxLC_SINGLE_SEL}
72 Single selection (default is multiple).
73 @style{wxLC_SORT_ASCENDING}
74 Sort in ascending order. (You must still supply a comparison callback
75 in wxListCtrl::SortItems.)
76 @style{wxLC_SORT_DESCENDING}
77 Sort in descending order. (You must still supply a comparison callback
78 in wxListCtrl::SortItems.)

357 not for the native Mac OS X version.
359 wxTextCtrl
* GetEditControl() const;
362 Returns the specified image list. @a which may be one of:
363 - wxIMAGE_LIST_NORMAL: The normal (large icon) image list.
364 - wxIMAGE_LIST_SMALL: The small icon image list.
365 - wxIMAGE_LIST_STATE: The user-defined state image list (unimplemented).
367 wxImageList
* GetImageList(int which
) const;
370 Gets information about the item. See SetItem() for more information.
372 You must call @e info.SetId() to set the ID of item you're interested in
373 before calling this method, and @e info.SetMask() with the flags indicating
374 what fields you need to retrieve from @a info.
377 In wxPerl this method takes as parameter the ID of the item
378 and (optionally) the column, and returns a Wx::ListItem object.
381 bool GetItem(wxListItem
& info
) const;
384 Returns the colour for this item.
385 If the item has no specific colour, returns an invalid colour
386 (and not the default background control of the control itself).

445 Gets the item text for this item.
447 wxString
GetItemText(long item
) const;
450 Returns the colour for this item.
452 If the item has no specific colour, returns an invalid colour (and not the
453 default foreground control of the control itself as this wouldn't allow
454 distinguishing between items having the same colour as the current control
455 foreground and items with default colour which, hence, have always the
456 same colour as the control).
458 wxColour
GetItemTextColour(long item
) const;
461 Searches for an item with the given geometry or state, starting from
462 @a item but excluding the @a item itself.
464 If @a item is -1, the first item that matches the specified flags will be returned.
465 Returns the first item with given state following @a item or -1 if no such item found.
466 This function may be used to find all selected items in the control like this:
472 item = listctrl->GetNextItem(item,
474 wxLIST_STATE_SELECTED);
478 // this item is selected - do whatever is needed with it
479 wxLogMessage("Item %ld is selected.", item);
483 @a geometry can be one of:

510 coordinates, of the given subitem, i.e. the part of the row @a item in the
513 This method is only meaningfull when the wxListCtrl is in the report mode.
514 If @a subItem parameter is equal to the special value
515 @c wxLIST_GETSUBITEMRECT_WHOLEITEM the return value is the same as
518 @a code can be one of @c wxLIST_RECT_BOUNDS, @c wxLIST_RECT_ICON or
519 @c wxLIST_RECT_LABEL.
523 bool GetSubItemRect(long item

GetTextColour() const;
532 Gets the index of the topmost visible item when in list or report view.
534 long GetTopItem() const;
537 Returns the rectangle taken by all items in the control. In other words, if the
538 controls client size were equal to the size of this rectangle, no scrollbars
539 would be needed and no free space would be left.
541 Note that this function only works in the icon and small icon views, not in
542 list or report views (this is a limitation of the native Win32 control).
544 wxRect
GetViewRect() const;
547 Determines which item (if any) is at the specified point, giving details
548 in @a flags. Returns index of the item or @c wxNOT_FOUND if no item is at
551 @a flags will be a combination of the following flags:
552 - wxLIST_HITTEST_ABOVE: Above the client area.
553 - wxLIST_HITTEST_BELOW: Below the client area.

556 - wxLIST_HITTEST_ONITEMLABEL: On the label (string) associated with an item.
557 - wxLIST_HITTEST_ONITEMRIGHT: In the area to the right of an item.
558 - wxLIST_HITTEST_ONITEMSTATEICON: On the state icon for a tree view item
559 that is in a user-defined state.
560 - wxLIST_HITTEST_TOLEFT: To the right of the client area.
561 - wxLIST_HITTEST_TORIGHT: To the left of the client area.
562 - wxLIST_HITTEST_ONITEM: Combination of @c wxLIST_HITTEST_ONITEMICON,
563 @c wxLIST_HITTEST_ONITEMLABEL, @c wxLIST_HITTEST_ONITEMSTATEICON.
565 If @a ptrSubItem is not @NULL and the wxListCtrl is in the report
566 mode the subitem (or column) number will also be provided.
567 This feature is only available in version 2.7.0 or higher and is currently only
568 implemented under wxMSW and requires at least comctl32.dll of verion 4.70 on
569 the host system or the value stored in @a ptrSubItem will be always -1.
570 To compile this feature into wxWidgets library you need to have access to
571 commctrl.h of version 4.70 that is provided by Microsoft.
574 In wxPerl this method only takes the @a point parameter
575 and returns a 2-element list (item, flags).

646 Redraws the given @e item.
648 This is only useful for the virtual list controls as without calling this
649 function the displayed value of the item doesn't change even when the
650 underlying data does change.
654 void RefreshItem(long item
);
657 Redraws the items between @a itemFrom and @e itemTo.
658 The starting item must be less than or equal to the ending one.
660 Just as RefreshItem() this is only useful for virtual list controls.
662 void RefreshItems(long itemFrom
, long itemTo
);
665 Scrolls the list control. If in icon, small icon or report view mode,
666 @a dx specifies the number of pixels to scroll. If in list view mode,
667 @a dx specifies the number of columns to scroll. @a dy always specifies
668 the number of pixels to scroll vertically.
670 @note This method is currently only implemented in the Windows version.
672 bool ScrollList(int dx
, int dy
);
675 Sets the background colour.
677 Note that the wxWindow::GetBackgroundColour() function of wxWindow base
678 class can be used to retrieve the current background colour.
680 virtual bool SetBackgroundColour(const wxColour
& col
);
683 Sets information about this column.
684 See SetItem() for more information.
686 bool SetColumn(int col
, wxListItem
& item
);
689 Sets the column width.
691 @a width can be a width in pixels or @c wxLIST_AUTOSIZE (-1) or
692 @c wxLIST_AUTOSIZE_USEHEADER (-2).
694 @c wxLIST_AUTOSIZE will resize the column to the length of its longest item.
696 @c wxLIST_AUTOSIZE_USEHEADER will resize the column to the length of the
697 header (Win32) or 80 pixels (other platforms).
699 In small or normal icon view, @a col must be -1, and the column width is set
702 bool SetColumnWidth(int col
, int width
);
705 Changes the order in which the columns are shown.
707 By default, the columns of a list control appear on the screen in order
708 of their indices, i.e. the column 0 appears first, the column 1 next
709 and so on. However by using this function it is possible to arbitrarily
710 reorder the columns visual order and the user can also rearrange the
711 columns interactively by dragging them. In this case, the index of the
712 column is not the same as its order and the functions GetColumnOrder()
713 and GetColumnIndexFromOrder() should be used to translate between them.
714 Notice that all the other functions still work with the column indices,
715 i.e. the visual positioning of the columns on screen doesn't affect the
716 code setting or getting their values for example.
718 The @a orders array must have the same number elements as the number of
719 columns and contain each position exactly once. Its n-th element
720 contains the index of the column to be shown in n-th position, so for a
721 control with three columns passing an array with elements 2, 0 and 1
722 results in the third column being displayed first, the first one next
723 and the second one last.
727 wxListCtrl *list = new wxListCtrl(...);
728 for ( int i = 0; i < 3; i++ )
729 list->InsertColumn(i, wxString::Format("Column %d", i));
735 list->SetColumnsOrder(order);
737 // now list->GetColumnsOrder() will return order and
738 // list->GetColumnIndexFromOrder(n) will return order[n] and
739 // list->GetColumnOrder() will return 1, 2 and 0 for the column 0,
740 // 1 and 2 respectively
743 Please notice that this function makes sense for report view only and
744 currently is only implemented in wxMSW port. To avoid explicit tests
745 for @c __WXMSW__ in your code, please use @c wxHAS_LISTCTRL_COLUMN_ORDER
746 as this will allow it to start working under the other platforms when
747 support for the column reordering is added there.
749 @see GetColumnsOrder()
751 bool SetColumnsOrder(const wxArrayInt
& orders
) const;
754 Sets the image list associated with the control.
756 @a which is one of @c wxIMAGE_LIST_NORMAL, @c wxIMAGE_LIST_SMALL,
757 @c wxIMAGE_LIST_STATE (the last is unimplemented).
759 This method does not take ownership of the image list, you have to

767 Sets the data of an item.
769 Using the wxListItem's mask and state mask, you can change only selected
770 attributes of a wxListCtrl item.
772 bool SetItem(wxListItem
& info
);
775 Sets an item string field at a particular column.
777 long SetItem(long index
, int column
, const wxString
& label
, int imageId
= -1);
780 Sets the background colour for this item.
781 This function only works in report view mode.
782 The colour can be retrieved using GetItemBackgroundColour().
784 void SetItemBackgroundColour(long item
, const wxColour
& col
);
787 Sets the image associated with the item.
788 In report view, you can specify the column.
789 The image is an index into the image list associated with the list control.
791 bool SetItemColumnImage(long item
, long column
, int image
);
794 This method can only be used with virtual list controls.
796 It is used to indicate to the control the number of items it contains.
797 After calling it, the main program should be ready to handle calls to
798 various item callbacks (such as wxListCtrl::OnGetItemText) for all
799 items in the range from 0 to @a count.
801 Notice that the control is not necessarily redrawn after this call as
802 it may be undesirable if an item which is not visible on the screen
803 anyhow was added to or removed from a control displaying many items, if
804 you do need to refresh the display you can just call Refresh() manually.
806 void SetItemCount(long count
);
809 Associates application-defined data with this item.
811 Notice that this function cannot be used to associate pointers with the control
812 items, use SetItemPtrData() instead.
814 bool SetItemData(long item
, long data
);
817 Sets the item's font.
819 void SetItemFont(long item
, const wxFont
& font
);
822 Sets the unselected and selected images associated with the item.
823 The images are indices into the image list associated with the list control.
825 bool SetItemImage(long item
, int image
, int selImage
= -1);
828 Sets the unselected and selected images associated with the item.
829 The images are indices into the image list associated with the list control.
832 This form is deprecated: @a selImage is not used; use the other
833 SetItemImage() overload.
835 bool SetItemImage(long item
, int image
, int selImage
= -1);
838 Sets the position of the item, in icon or small icon view. Windows only.
840 bool SetItemPosition(long item
, const wxPoint
& pos
);
843 Associates application-defined data with this item.
845 The @a data parameter may be either an integer or a pointer cast to the
846 @c wxUIntPtr type which is guaranteed to be large enough to be able to
847 contain all integer types and pointers.
851 bool SetItemPtrData(long item
, wxUIntPtr data
);
854 Sets the item state. For a list of state flags, see SetItem().
855 The @b stateMask indicates which state flags are valid.
857 bool SetItemState(long item
, long state
, long stateMask
);
860 Sets the item text for this item.
862 void SetItemText(long item
, const wxString
& text
);
865 Sets the colour for this item.
866 This function only works in report view.
867 The colour can be retrieved using GetItemTextColour().
869 void SetItemTextColour(long item
, const wxColour
& col
);
872 Adds or removes a single window style.
874 void SetSingleStyle(long style
, bool add
= true);
877 Sets the text colour of the list control.
879 void SetTextColour(const wxColour
& col
);
882 Sets the whole window style, deleting all items.
884 void SetWindowStyleFlag(long style
);
887 Call this function to sort the items in the list control. Sorting is done
888 using the specified @a fnSortCallBack function. This function must have the
891 int wxCALLBACK wxListCompareFunction(long item1, long item2, wxIntPtr sortData)
894 It is called each time when the two items must be compared and should return 0
895 if the items are equal, negative value if the first item is less than the
896 second one and positive value if the first one is greater than the second one
897 (the same convention as used by @c qsort(3)).
899 The parameter @e item1 is the client data associated with the first item (NOT the index).
900 The parameter @e item2 is the client data associated with the second item (NOT the index).
901 The parameter @e data is the value passed to SortItems() itself.
903 Notice that the control may only be sorted on client data associated with
904 the items, so you must use SetItemData if you want to be able to sort the
905 items in the control.
907 Please see the @ref page_samples_listctrl for an example of using this function.
910 In wxPerl the comparison function must take just two parameters;
911 however, you may use a closure to achieve an effect similar to the
912 SortItems third parameter.
915 bool SortItems(wxListCtrlCompare fnSortCallBack
, wxIntPtr data
);
920 This function may be overloaded in the derived class for a control with
921 @c wxLC_VIRTUAL style. It should return the attribute for the specified
922 @c item or @NULL to use the default appearance parameters.
924 wxListCtrl will not delete the pointer or keep a reference of it.
925 You can return the same wxListItemAttr pointer for every OnGetItemAttr() call.
927 The base class version always returns @NULL.

966 @c wxLC_VIRTUAL style having an "image list" (see SetImageList(); if the
967 control doesn't have an image list, it is not necessary to overload it).
968 It should return the index of the items image in the controls image list
971 In a control with @c wxLC_REPORT style, OnGetItemImage() only gets called for
972 the first column of each line.
974 The base class version always returns -1.

1210 This class currently simply presents a simpler to use interface for the
1211 wxListCtrl -- it can be thought of as a @e façade for that complicated class.
1213 Using it is preferable to using wxListCtrl directly whenever possible because
1214 in the future some ports might implement wxListView but not the full set of
1215 wxListCtrl features.
1217 Other than different interface, this class is identical to wxListCtrl.
1218 In particular, it uses the same events, same window styles and so on.

1316 This class stores information about a wxListCtrl item or column.
1318 wxListItem is a class which contains informations about:
1319 - Zero based item position; see SetId() and GetId().
1320 - Zero based column index; see SetColumn() and GetColumn().
1321 - The label (or header for columns); see SetText() and GetText().
1322 - The zero based index into an image list; see GetImage() and SetImage().
1323 - Application defined data; see SetData() and GetData().
1324 - For columns only: the width of the column; see SetWidth() and GetWidth().
1325 - For columns only: the format of the column; one of @c wxLIST_FORMAT_LEFT,
1326 @c wxLIST_FORMAT_RIGHT, @c wxLIST_FORMAT_CENTRE. See SetAlign() and GetAlign().
1327 - The state of the item; see SetState() and GetState().
1328 This is a bitlist of the following flags:
1329 - @c wxLIST_STATE_FOCUSED: The item has the focus.
1330 - @c wxLIST_STATE_SELECTED: The item is selected.
1331 - @c wxLIST_STATE_DONTCARE: Don't care what the state is. Win32 only.
1332 - @c wxLIST_STATE_DROPHILITED: The item is highlighted to receive a drop event. Win32 only.
1333 - @c wxLIST_STATE_CUT: The item is in the cut state. Win32 only.
1334 - A mask indicating which state flags are valid; this is a bitlist of the
1335 flags reported above for the item state. See SetStateMask() and GetStateMask().
1336 - A mask indicating which fields of this class are valid; see SetMask() and GetMask().
1337 This is a bitlist of the following flags:
1338 - @c wxLIST_MASK_STATE: The state field is valid.
1339 - @c wxLIST_MASK_TEXT: The label field is valid.
1340 - @c wxLIST_MASK_IMAGE: The image field is valid.

1342 - @c wxLIST_MASK_WIDTH: The column width field is valid.
1343 - @c wxLIST_MASK_FORMAT: The column format field is valid.
1345 The wxListItem object can also contain item-specific colour and font
1346 information: for this you need to call one of SetTextColour(), SetBackgroundColour()
1347 or SetFont() functions on it passing it the colour/font to use.
1348 If the colour/font is not specified, the default list control colour/font is used.
