\wxheading{Window styles}
The following styles can apply to all windows, although they will not always make sense for a particular
\twocolwidtha{5cm}%
\begin{twocollist}\itemsep=0pt
-\twocolitem{\windowstyle{wxSIMPLE\_BORDER}}{Displays a thin border around the window. wxBORDER is the old name
+\twocolitem{\windowstyle{wxBORDER\_DEFAULT}}{The window class will decide the kind of border to show, if any.}
+\twocolitem{\windowstyle{wxBORDER\_SIMPLE}}{Displays a thin border around the window. wxSIMPLE\_BORDER is the old name
for this style. }
-\twocolitem{\windowstyle{wxDOUBLE\_BORDER}}{Displays a double border. Windows and Mac only.}
-\twocolitem{\windowstyle{wxSUNKEN\_BORDER}}{Displays a sunken border.}
-\twocolitem{\windowstyle{wxRAISED\_BORDER}}{Displays a raised border.}
-\twocolitem{\windowstyle{wxSTATIC\_BORDER}}{Displays a border suitable for a static control. Windows only. }
-\twocolitem{\windowstyle{wxNO\_BORDER}}{Displays no border, overriding the default border style for the window.}
+\twocolitem{\windowstyle{wxBORDER\_SUNKEN}}{Displays a sunken border. wxSUNKEN\_BORDER is the old name for this style.}
+\twocolitem{\windowstyle{wxBORDER\_RAISED}}{Displays a raised border. wxRAISED\_BORDER is the old name for this style. }
+\twocolitem{\windowstyle{wxBORDER\_STATIC}}{Displays a border suitable for a static control. wxSTATIC\_BORDER is the old name for this style. Windows only. }
+\twocolitem{\windowstyle{wxBORDER\_THEME}}{Displays a native border suitable for a control, on the current platform. On Windows XP or Vista, this will be a themed border; on most other platforms
+a sunken border will be used. For more information for themed borders on Windows, please see \helpref{Themed borders on Windows}{wxmswthemedborders}.}
+\twocolitem{\windowstyle{wxBORDER\_NONE}}{Displays no border, overriding the default border style for the window. wxNO\_BORDER is the old name for this style.}
+\twocolitem{\windowstyle{wxBORDER\_DOUBLE}}{This style is obsolete and should not be used.}
\twocolitem{\windowstyle{wxTRANSPARENT\_WINDOW}}{The window is transparent, that is, it will not receive paint
events. Windows only.}
\twocolitem{\windowstyle{wxTAB\_TRAVERSAL}}{Use this to enable tab traversal for non-dialog windows.}
\twocolitem{\windowstyle{wxNO\_FULL\_REPAINT\_ON\_RESIZE}}{On Windows, this style used to disable repainting
the window completely when its size is changed. Since this behaviour is now the default, the style is now obsolete
and no longer has an effect.}
-\twocolitem{\windowstyle{wxVSCROLL}}{Use this style to enable a vertical scrollbar.}
-\twocolitem{\windowstyle{wxHSCROLL}}{Use this style to enable a horizontal scrollbar.}
+\twocolitem{\windowstyle{wxVSCROLL}}{Use this style to enable a vertical
+scrollbar. Notice that this style cannot be used with native controls
+which don't support scrollbars nor with top-level windows in most ports.}
+\twocolitem{\windowstyle{wxHSCROLL}}{Use this style to enable a horizontal
+scrollbar. The same limitations as for wxVSCROLL apply to this style.}
\twocolitem{\windowstyle{wxALWAYS\_SHOW\_SB}}{If a window has scrollbars,
disable them instead of hiding them when they are not needed (i.e. when the
size of the window is big enough to not require the scrollbars to navigate it).
\docparam{child}{Child window to add.}
+\membersection{wxWindow::AlwaysShowScrollbars}\label{wxwindowalwaysshowscrollbars}
+
+\func{void}{AlwaysShowScrollbars}{\param{bool}{ hflag}, \param{bool}{ vflag}}
+
+Call this function to force one or both scrollbars to be always shown, even if
+the window is big enough to show its entire contents without scrolling.
+
+\newsince{2.9.0}
+
+\wxheading{Parameters}
+
+\docparam{hflag}{Whether the horizontal scroll bar should always be visible.}
+
+\docparam{vflag}{Whether the vertical scroll bar should always be visible.}
+
+\wxheading{Remarks}
+
+This function is currently only implemented under Mac/Carbon.
+
+
\membersection{wxWindow::CacheBestSize}\label{wxwindowcachebestsize}
\constfunc{void}{CacheBestSize}{\param{const wxSize\& }{size}}
Sets the cached best size value.
+\membersection{wxWindow::CanSetTransparent}\label{wxwindowcansettransparent}
+
+\func{bool}{CanSetTransparent}{\void}
+
+Returns \true if the system supports transparent windows and calling
+\helpref{SetTransparent}{wxwindowsettransparent} may succeed. If this function
+returns \false, transparent windows are definitely not supported by the current
+system.
+
+
\membersection{wxWindow::CaptureMouse}\label{wxwindowcapturemouse}
\func{virtual void}{CaptureMouse}{\void}
\constfunc{virtual wxBackgroundStyle}{GetBackgroundStyle}{\void}
-Returns the background style of the window. The background style indicates
-whether background colour should be determined by the system (wxBG\_STYLE\_SYSTEM),
-be set to a specific colour (wxBG\_STYLE\_COLOUR), or should be left to the
-application to implement (wxBG\_STYLE\_CUSTOM).
-
-On GTK+, use of wxBG\_STYLE\_CUSTOM allows the flicker-free drawing of a custom
-background, such as a tiled bitmap. Currently the style has no effect on other platforms.
+Returns the background style of the window. The background style can be one of:
+\begin{twocollist}\itemsep=0pt
+\twocolitem{wxBG\_STYLE\_SYSTEM}{Use the default background, as determined by
+the system or the current theme.}
+\twocolitem{wxBG\_STYLE\_COLOUR}{Use a solid colour for the background, this
+style is set automatically if you call
+\helpref{SetBackgroundColour}{wxwindowsetbackgroundcolour} so you only need to
+set it explicitly if you had changed the background style to something else
+before.}
+\twocolitem{wxBG\_STYLE\_CUSTOM}{Don't draw the background at all, it's
+supposed that it is drawn by the user-defined erase background event handler.
+This style should be used to avoid flicker when the background is entirely
+custom-drawn.}
+\twocolitem{wxBG\_STYLE\_TRANSPARET}{The background is (partially) transparent,
+this style is automatically set if you call
+\helpref{SetTransparent}{wxwindowsettransparent} which is used to set the
+transparency level.}

+
+\func{int}{GetPopupMenuSelectionFromUser}{\param{wxMenu\&}{ menu}, \param{int}{ x}, \param{int}{ y}}
+
+This function shows a popup menu at the given position in this window and
+returns the selected id. It can be more convenient than the general purpose
+\helpref{PopupMenu}{wxwindowpopupmenu} function for simple menus proposing a
+choice in a list of strings to the user.

\membersection{wxWindow::IsShown}\label{wxwindowisshown}
\constfunc{virtual bool}{IsShown}{\void}
You may wish to call this from a text control custom keypress handler to do the default
navigation behaviour for the tab key, since the standard default behaviour for
a multiline text control with the wxTE\_PROCESS\_TAB style is to insert a tab
-and not navigate to the next control.
+and not navigate to the next control. See also \helpref{wxNavigationKeyEvent}{wxnavigationkeyevent}.
\membersection{wxWindow::NavigateIn}\label{wxwindownavigatein}
\func{virtual void}{SetBackgroundStyle}{\param{wxBackgroundStyle}{ style}}
-Sets the background style of the window. The background style indicates
-whether background colour should be determined by the system (wxBG\_STYLE\_SYSTEM),
-be set to a specific colour (wxBG\_STYLE\_COLOUR), or should be left to the
-application to implement (wxBG\_STYLE\_CUSTOM).
-
-On GTK+, use of wxBG\_STYLE\_CUSTOM allows the flicker-free drawing of a custom
-background, such as a tiled bitmap. Currently the style has no effect on other platforms.

-\func{void}{SetInitialSize}{\param{const wxSize\& }{size = wxDefaultSize}}
+\membersection{wxWindow::SetCanFocus}\label{wxwindowsetcanfocus}
-A {\it smart} SetSize that will fill in default size components with the
-window's {\it best} size values. Also sets the window's minsize to
-the value passed in for use with sizers. This means that if a full or
-partial size is passed to this function then the sizers will use that
-size instead of the results of GetBestSize to determine the minimum
-needs of the window for layout.
-
-Most controls will use this to set their initial size, and their min
-size to the passed in value (if any.)
+\func{virtual void}{SetCanFocus}{\param{bool}{ canFocus}}
+This method is only implemented by ports which have support for
+native TAB traversal (such as GTK+ 2.0). It is called by wxWidgets'
+container control code to give the native system a hint when
+doing TAB traversal. A call to this does not disable or change
+the effect of programmatically calling
+\helpref{wxWindow::SetFocus}{wxwindowsetfocus}.

-\membersection{wxWindow::SetInitialBestSize}\label{wxwindowsetinitialbestsize}
-
-\func{virtual void}{SetInitialBestSize}{\param{const wxSize\& }{size}}
-
-Sets the initial window size if none is given (i.e. at least one of the
-components of the size passed to ctor/Create() is wxDefaultCoord).
-
\membersection{wxWindow::SetEventHandler}\label{wxwindowseteventhandler}
\func{void}{SetEventHandler}{\param{wxEvtHandler* }{handler}}
central implementation of event-handling for a variety of different
window classes.
-It is usually better to use \helpref{wxWindow::PushEventHandler}{wxwindowpusheventhandler} since
-this sets up a chain of event handlers, where an event not handled by one event handler is
-handed to the next one in the chain.

\membersection{wxWindow::SetFont}\label{wxwindowsetfont}
-\func{void}{SetFont}{\param{const wxFont\& }{font}}
+\func{bool}{SetFont}{\param{const wxFont\& }{font}}
Sets the font for this window. This function should not be called for the
parent window if you don't want its font to be inherited by its children,
\docparam{font}{Font to associate with this window, pass
{\tt wxNullFont} to reset to the default font.}
+\wxheading{Return value}

+
+Set the transparency of the window. If the system supports transparent windows,
+returns \true, otherwise returns \false and the window remains fully opaque.
+See also \helpref{CanSetTransparent}{wxwindowcansettransparent}.
+
+The parameter \arg{alpha} is in the range $0..255$ where $0$ corresponds to a
