3 A tree control presents information as a hierarchy, with items that may be expanded
4 to show further items. Items in a tree control are referenced by wxTreeItemId handles.
6 To intercept events from a tree control, use the event table macros described in

584 Force appearance of the button next to the item. This is useful to
585 allow the user to expand the items which don't have any children now,
586 but instead adding them only when needed, thus minimizing memory
587 usage and loading time.

627 Sorts the children of the given item using

648 \membersection{wxTreeCtrl::UnselectAll

650 \func{void
}{UnselectAll

652 This function either behaves the same as

653 if the control doesn't have wxTR
\_MULTIPLE style, or removes the selection from
654 all items if it does have this style.
656 \section{\class{wxTreeItemData
}}\label{wxtreeitemdata
}
658 wxTreeItemData is some (arbitrary) user class associated with some item. The
659 main advantage of having this class (compared to the old untyped interface) is
660 that wxTreeItemData's are destroyed automatically by the tree and, as this
661 class has virtual dtor, it means that the memory will be automatically
662 freed. We don't just use wxObject instead of wxTreeItemData because
663 the size of this class is critical: in any real application, each tree leaf
664 will have wxTreeItemData associated with it and number of leaves may be
667 Because the objects of this class are deleted by the tree, they should
668 always be allocated on the heap.
