9 /** @class wxPropertyGridPage
11 Holder of property grid page information. You can subclass this and
12 give instance in wxPropertyGridManager::AddPage. It inherits from
13 wxEvtHandler and can be used to process events specific to this
14 page (id of events will still be same as manager's). If you don't
15 want to use it to process all events of the page, you need to
16 return false in the derived wxPropertyGridPage::IsHandlingAllEvents.
18 Please note that wxPropertyGridPage lacks many non-const property
19 manipulation functions found in wxPropertyGridManager. Please use
20 parent manager (m_manager member variable) when needed.
22 Please note that most member functions are inherited and as such not documented on
23 this page. This means you will probably also want to read wxPropertyGridInterface
26 @section propgridpage_event_handling Event Handling
28 wxPropertyGridPage receives events emitted by its wxPropertyGridManager, but
29 only those events that are specific to that page. If wxPropertyGridPage::IsHandlingAllEvents
30 returns false, then unhandled events are sent to the manager's parent, as usual.
