3 A flex grid sizer is a sizer which lays out its children in a two-dimensional
4 table with all table fields in one row having the same
5 height and all fields in one column having the same width, but all
6 rows or all columns are not necessarily the same height or width as in
7 the \helpref{wxGridSizer}{wxgridsizer}.
8
9 Since wxWidgets 2.5.0, wxFlexGridSizer can also size items equally in one
10 direction but unequally ("flexibly") in the other. If the sizer is only
11 flexible in one direction (this can be changed using
12 \helpref{SetFlexibleDrection}{wxflexgridsizersetflexibledirection}),
13 it needs to be decided how the sizer should grow in the other ("non flexible")
14 direction in order to fill the available space. The
15 \helpref{SetNonFlexibleGrowMode}{wxflexgridsizersetnonflexiblegrowmode} method
16 serves this purpose.

36
37 \func{}{wxFlexGridSizer}{\param{int }{cols}, \param{int }{vgap = 0}, \param{int }{hgap = 0}}
38
39 Constructor for a wxGridSizer. {\it rows} and {\it cols} determine the number of
40 columns and rows in the sizer - if either of the parameters is zero, it will be
41 calculated to form the total number of children in the sizer, thus making the
42 sizer grow dynamically. {\it vgap} and {\it hgap} define extra space between
43 all children.

46 \membersection{wxFlexGridSizer::AddGrowableCol}\label{wxflexgridsizeraddgrowablecol}
47
48 \func{void}{AddGrowableCol}{\param{size\_t }{idx}, \param{int }{proportion = $0$}}
49
50 Specifies that column {\it idx} (starting from zero) should be grown if
51 there is extra space available to the sizer.
52
53 The {\it proportion} parameter has the same meaning as the stretch factor for
54 the \helpref{sizers}{sizeroverview} except that if all proportions are $0$,
55 then all columns are resized equally (instead of not being resized at all).
56
57 \membersection{wxFlexGridSizer::AddGrowableRow}\label{wxflexgridsizeraddgrowablerow}
58
59 \func{void}{AddGrowableRow}{\param{size\_t }{idx}, \param{int }{proportion = $0$}}
60
61 Specifies that row idx (starting from zero) should be grown if there
62 is extra space available to the sizer.
63
64 See \helpref{AddGrowableCol}{wxflexgridsizeraddgrowablecol} for the description
65 of {\it proportion} parameter.

67 \membersection{wxFlexGridSizer::GetFlexibleDirection}\label{wxflexgridsizergetflexibledrection}
68
69 \constfunc{int}{GetFlexibleDirections}{\void}
70
71 Returns a wxOrientation value that specifies whether the sizer flexibly
72 resizes its columns, rows, or both (default).
73
74 \wxheading{Return value}
75
76 One of the following values:
77
78 \begin{twocollist}
79 \twocolitem{wxVERTICAL}{Rows are flexibly sized.}
80 \twocolitem{wxHORIZONTAL}{Columns are flexibly sized.}
81 \twocolitem{wxBOTH}{Both rows and columns are flexibly sized (this is the default value).}

90
91 \constfunc{int}{GetNonFlexibleGrowMode}{\void}
92
93 Returns the value that specifies how the sizer grows in the "non flexible"
94 direction if there is one.
95
96 \wxheading{Return value}
97
98 One of the following values:
99
100 \begin{twocollist}
101 \twocolitem{wxFLEX\_GROWMODE\_NONE}{Sizer doesn't grow in the non flexible direction.}
102 \twocolitem{wxFLEX\_GROWMODE\_SPECIFIED}{Sizer honors growable columns/rows set with
103 \helpref{AddGrowableCol}{wxflexgridsizeraddgrowablecol} and
104 \helpref{AddGrowableRow}{wxflexgridsizeraddgrowablerow}.
105 In this case equal sizing applies to minimum sizes of columns or
106 rows (this is the default value).}
107 \twocolitem{wxFLEX\_GROWMODE\_ALL}{Sizer equally stretches all columns or rows
108 in the non flexible direction, whether they are growable or not in the flexbile
109 direction.}

119
120 \func{void}{RemoveGrowableCol}{\param{size\_t }{idx}}
121
122 Specifies that column idx is no longer growable.

126
127 \func{void}{RemoveGrowableRow}{\param{size\_t }{idx}}
128
129 Specifies that row idx is no longer growable.

132 \membersection{wxFlexGridSizer::SetFlexibleDirection}\label{wxflexgridsizersetflexibledirection}
133
134 \func{void}{SetFlexibleDirections}{\param{int }{direction}}
135
136 Specifies whether the sizer should flexibly resize its columns, rows, or
137 both. Argument {\tt direction} can be {\tt wxVERTICAL}, {\tt wxHORIZONTAL}
138 or {\tt wxBOTH} (which is the default value). Any other value is ignored. See
139 \helpref{GetFlexibleDirection()}{wxflexgridsizergetflexibledrection} for the
140 explanation of these values.
141
142 Note that this method does not trigger relayout.

145 \membersection{wxFlexGridSizer::SetNonFlexibleGrowMode}\label{wxflexgridsizersetnonflexiblegrowmode}
146
147 \func{void}{SetNonFlexibleGrowMode}{\param{int }{mode}}
148
149 Specifies how the sizer should grow in the non flexible direction if
150 there is one (so
151 \helpref{SetFlexibleDirections()}{wxflexgridsizersetflexibledirection} must have
152 been called previously). Argument {\it mode} can be one of those documented in
153 \helpref{GetNonFlexibleGrowMode}{wxflexgridsizergetnonflexiblegrowmode}, please
154 see there for their explanation.
155
156 Note that this method does not trigger relayout.
