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.)

421 Returns the colour for this item.
423 If the item has no specific colour, returns an invalid colour (and not the
424 default foreground control of the control itself as this wouldn't allow
425 distinguishing between items having the same colour as the current control
426 foreground and items with default colour which, hence, have always the
427 same colour as the control).

481 coordinates, of the given subitem, i.e. the part of the row @a item in the
484 This method is only meaningfull when the wxListCtrl is in the report mode.
485 If @a subItem parameter is equal to the special value
486 @c wxLIST_GETSUBITEMRECT_WHOLEITEM the return value is the same as
489 @a code can be one of @c wxLIST_RECT_BOUNDS, @c wxLIST_RECT_ICON or

GetTextColour() const;
503 Gets the index of the topmost visible item when in list or report view.
505 long GetTopItem() const;
508 Returns the rectangle taken by all items in the control. In other words, if the
509 controls client size were equal to the size of this rectangle, no scrollbars
510 would be needed and no free space would be left.
512 Note that this function only works in the icon and small icon views, not in
513 list or report views (this is a limitation of the native Win32 control).
515 wxRect
GetViewRect() const;
518 Determines which item (if any) is at the specified point, giving details
519 in @a flags. Returns index of the item or @c wxNOT_FOUND if no item is at

536 If @a ptrSubItem is not @NULL and the wxListCtrl is in the report
537 mode the subitem (or column) number will also be provided.
538 This feature is only available in version 2.7.0 or higher and is currently only
539 implemented under wxMSW and requires at least comctl32.dll of verion 4.70 on
540 the host system or the value stored in @a ptrSubItem will be always -1.
541 To compile this feature into wxWidgets library you need to have access to
542 commctrl.h of version 4.70 that is provided by Microsoft.

602 This is only useful for the virtual list controls as without calling this
603 function the displayed value of the item doesn't change even when the
604 underlying data does change.
608 void RefreshItem(long item
);
611 Redraws the items between @a itemFrom and @e itemTo.
612 The starting item must be less than or equal to the ending one.
614 Just as RefreshItem() this is only useful for virtual list controls.
616 void RefreshItems(long itemFrom
, long itemTo
);
619 Scrolls the list control. If in icon, small icon or report view mode,
620 @a dx specifies the number of pixels to scroll. If in list view mode,
621 @a dx specifies the number of columns to scroll. @a dy always specifies
622 the number of pixels to scroll vertically.
624 @note This method is currently only implemented in the Windows version.
626 bool ScrollList(int dx
, int dy
);
629 Sets the background colour.
631 Note that the wxWindow::GetBackgroundColour() function of wxWindow base
632 class can be used to retrieve the current background colour.
634 virtual bool SetBackgroundColour(const wxColour
& col
);
637 Sets information about this column.
638 See SetItem() for more information.
640 bool SetColumn(int col
, wxListItem
& item
);
643 Sets the column width.
645 @a width can be a width in pixels or @c wxLIST_AUTOSIZE (-1) or
646 @c wxLIST_AUTOSIZE_USEHEADER (-2).
648 @c wxLIST_AUTOSIZE will resize the column to the length of its longest item.
650 @c wxLIST_AUTOSIZE_USEHEADER will resize the column to the length of the
651 header (Win32) or 80 pixels (other platforms).
653 In small or normal icon view, @a col must be -1, and the column width is set
656 bool SetColumnWidth(int col
, int width
);
659 Changes the order in which the columns are shown.
661 By default, the columns of a list control appear on the screen in order
662 of their indices, i.e. the column 0 appears first, the column 1 next
663 and so on. However by using this function it is possible to arbitrarily
664 reorder the columns visual order and the user can also rearrange the
665 columns interactively by dragging them. In this case, the index of the
666 column is not the same as its order and the functions GetColumnOrder()
667 and GetColumnIndexFromOrder() should be used to translate between them.
668 Notice that all the other functions still work with the column indices,
669 i.e. the visual positioning of the columns on screen doesn't affect the
670 code setting or getting their values for example.
672 The @a orders array must have the same number elements as the number of
673 columns and contain each position exactly once. Its n-th element
674 contains the index of the column to be shown in n-th position, so for a
675 control with three columns passing an array with elements 2, 0 and 1
676 results in the third column being displayed first, the first one next
677 and the second one last.
681 wxListCtrl *list = new wxListCtrl(...);
682 for ( int i = 0; i < 3; i++ )
683 list->InsertColumn(i, wxString::Format("Column %d", i));
689 list->SetColumnsOrder(order);
691 // now list->GetColumnsOrder() will return order and
692 // list->GetColumnIndexFromOrder(n) will return order[n] and
693 // list->GetColumnOrder() will return 1, 2 and 0 for the column 0,
694 // 1 and 2 respectively
697 Please notice that this function makes sense for report view only and
698 currently is only implemented in wxMSW port. To avoid explicit tests
699 for @c __WXMSW__ in your code, please use @c wxHAS_LISTCTRL_COLUMN_ORDER
700 as this will allow it to start working under the other platforms when
701 support for the column reordering is added there.
703 @see GetColumnsOrder()
705 bool SetColumnsOrder(const wxArrayInt
& orders
) const;
708 Sets the image list associated with the control.
710 @a which is one of @c wxIMAGE_LIST_NORMAL, @c wxIMAGE_LIST_SMALL,

723 Using the wxListItem's mask and state mask, you can change only selected
724 attributes of a wxListCtrl item.
726 bool SetItem(wxListItem

);
729 Sets an item string field at a particular column.
731 long SetItem(long index
, int column
, const wxString
& label
, int imageId
= -1);
734 Sets the background colour for this item.
735 This function only works in report view mode.
736 The colour can be retrieved using GetItemBackgroundColour().
738 void SetItemBackgroundColour(long item
, const wxColour
& col
);
741 Sets the image associated with the item.
742 In report view, you can specify the column.
743 The image is an index into the image list associated with the list control.
745 bool SetItemColumnImage(long item
, long column
, int image
);
748 This method can only be used with virtual list controls.
750 It is used to indicate to the control the number of items it contains.
751 After calling it, the main program should be ready to handle calls to
752 various item callbacks (such as wxListCtrl::OnGetItemText) for all
753 items in the range from 0 to @a count.
755 Notice that the control is not necessarily redrawn after this call as
756 it may be undesirable if an item which is not visible on the screen
757 anyhow was added to or removed from a control displaying many items, if
758 you do need to refresh the display you can just call Refresh() manually.
760 void SetItemCount(long count
);
763 Associates application-defined data with this item.
765 Notice that this function cannot be used to associate pointers with the control
766 items, use SetItemPtrData() instead.
768 bool SetItemData(long item
, long data
);
771 Sets the item's font.
773 void SetItemFont(long item
, const wxFont
& font
);
776 Sets the unselected and selected images associated with the item.
777 The images are indices into the image list associated with the list control.
779 bool SetItemImage(long item
, int image
, int selImage
= -1);
782 Sets the unselected and selected images associated with the item.
783 The images are indices into the image list associated with the list control.
786 This form is deprecated: @a selImage is not used; use the other
787 SetItemImage() overload.
789 bool SetItemImage(long item
, int image
, int selImage
= -1);
792 Sets the position of the item, in icon or small icon view. Windows only.
794 bool SetItemPosition(long item
, const wxPoint
& pos
);
797 Associates application-defined data with this item.
799 The @a data parameter may be either an integer or a pointer cast to the
800 @c wxUIntPtr type which is guaranteed to be large enough to be able to
801 contain all integer types and pointers.
805 bool SetItemPtrData(long item
, wxUIntPtr data
);
808 Sets the item state. For a list of state flags, see SetItem().
809 The @b stateMask indicates which state flags are valid.
811 bool SetItemState(long item
, long state
, long stateMask
);
814 Sets the item text for this item.
816 void SetItemText(long item
, const wxString
& text
);
819 Sets the colour for this item.
820 This function only works in report view.
821 The colour can be retrieved using GetItemTextColour().
823 void SetItemTextColour(long item
, const wxColour
& col
);
826 Adds or removes a single window style.
828 void SetSingleStyle(long style
, bool add
= true);
831 Sets the text colour of the list control.
833 void SetTextColour(const wxColour
& col
);
836 Sets the whole window style, deleting all items.
838 void SetWindowStyleFlag(long style
);
841 Call this function to sort the items in the list control. Sorting is done
842 using the specified @a fnSortCallBack function. This function must have the
845 int wxCALLBACK wxListCompareFunction(long item1, long item2, long sortData)
848 It is called each time when the two items must be compared and should return 0
849 if the items are equal, negative value if the first item is less than the
850 second one and positive value if the first one is greater than the second one
851 (the same convention as used by @c qsort(3)).
853 The parameter @e item1 is the client data associated with the first item (NOT the index).
854 The parameter @e item2 is the client data associated with the second item (NOT the index).
855 The parameter @e data is the value passed to SortItems() itself.
857 Notice that the control may only be sorted on client data associated with
858 the items, so you must use SetItemData if you want to be able to sort the
859 items in the control.
861 Please see the @ref page_samples_listctrl for an example of using this function.
863 bool SortItems(wxListCtrlCompare fnSortCallBack
, long data
);
868 This function may be overloaded in the derived class for a control with
869 @c wxLC_VIRTUAL style. It should return the attribute for the specified
870 @c item or @NULL to use the default appearance parameters.
872 wxListCtrl will not delete the pointer or keep a reference of it.
873 You can return the same wxListItemAttr pointer for every OnGetItemAttr() call.
875 The base class version always returns @NULL.

915 control doesn't have an image list, it is not necessary to overload it).
916 It should return the index of the items image in the controls image list
919 In a control with @c wxLC_REPORT style, OnGetItemImage() only gets called for
920 the first column of each line.

1158 This class currently simply presents a simpler to use interface for the
1159 wxListCtrl -- it can be thought of as a @e façade for that complicated class.
1161 Using it is preferable to using wxListCtrl directly whenever possible because
1162 in the future some ports might implement wxListView but not the full set of
1163 wxListCtrl features.
1165 Other than different interface, this class is identical to wxListCtrl.
1166 In particular, it uses the same events, same window styles and so on.

1264 This class stores information about a wxListCtrl item or column.
1266 wxListItem is a class which contains informations about:
1267 - Zero based item position; see SetId() and GetId().
1268 - Zero based column index; see SetColumn() and GetColumn().
1269 - The label (or header for columns); see SetText() and GetText().
1270 - The zero based index into an image list; see GetImage() and SetImage().
1271 - Application defined data; see SetData() and GetData().
1272 - For columns only: the width of the column; see SetWidth() and GetWidth().
1273 - For columns only: the format of the column; one of @c wxLIST_FORMAT_LEFT,
1274 @c wxLIST_FORMAT_RIGHT, @c wxLIST_FORMAT_CENTRE. See SetAlign() and GetAlign().
1275 - The state of the item; see SetState() and GetState().
1276 This is a bitlist of the following flags:
1277 - @c wxLIST_STATE_FOCUSED: The item has the focus.
1278 - @c wxLIST_STATE_SELECTED: The item is selected.
1279 - @c wxLIST_STATE_DONTCARE: Don't care what the state is. Win32 only.
1280 - @c wxLIST_STATE_DROPHILITED: The item is highlighted to receive a drop event. Win32 only.
1281 - @c wxLIST_STATE_CUT: The item is in the cut state. Win32 only.
1282 - A mask indicating which state flags are valid; this is a bitlist of the
1283 flags reported above for the item state. See SetStateMask() and GetStateMask().
1284 - A mask indicating which fields of this class are valid; see SetMask() and GetMask().
1285 This is a bitlist of the following flags:
1286 - @c wxLIST_MASK_STATE: The state field is valid.

1291 - @c wxLIST_MASK_FORMAT: The column format field is valid.
1293 The wxListItem object can also contain item-specific colour and font
1294 information: for this you need to call one of SetTextColour(), SetBackgroundColour()
1295 or SetFont() functions on it passing it the colour/font to use.
1296 If the colour/font is not specified, the default list control colour/font is used.
