- The wxScrolledWindow class manages scrolling for its client area, transforming
+ The wxScrolled class manages scrolling for its client area, transforming
the coordinates according to the scrollbar positions, and setting the
scroll positions, thumb sizes and ranges according to the area in view.
+ There are two commonly used (but not the only possible!) specializations of
+ this class:
+
+ - ::wxScrolledWindow, aka wxScrolled<wxPanel>, is equivalent to
+ ::wxScrolledWindow from earlier versions. Derived from wxPanel, it shares
+ wxPanel's behaviour with regard to TAB traversal and focus handling. Use
+ this if the scrolled window will have child controls.
+
+ - ::wxScrolledCanvas, aka wxScrolled<wxWindow>, derives from wxWindow and
+ so doesn't handle children specially. This is suitable e.g. for
+ implementating scrollable controls such as tree or list controls.
+
Starting from version 2.4 of wxWidgets, there are several ways to use a
- wxScrolledWindow. In particular, there are now three ways to set the
- size of the scrolling area:
+ ::wxScrolledWindow (and now wxScrolled). In particular, there are
+ three ways to set the size of the scrolling area:
- One way is to set the scrollbars directly using a call to
- wxScrolledWindow::SetScrollbars.
- This is the way it used to be in any previous version of wxWidgets
- and it will be kept for backwards compatibility.
+ One way is to set the scrollbars directly using a call to SetScrollbars().
+ This is the way it used to be in any previous version of wxWidgets and it
+ will be kept for backwards compatibility.
An additional method of manual control, which requires a little less
computation of your own, is to set the total size of the scrolling area by
- calling either wxWindow::SetVirtualSize,
- or wxWindow::FitInside, and setting the
- scrolling increments for it by calling
- wxScrolledWindow::SetScrollRate.
+ calling either wxWindow::SetVirtualSize(), or wxWindow::FitInside(), and
+ setting the scrolling increments for it by calling SetScrollRate().
Scrolling in some orientation is enabled by setting a non-zero increment
for it.
The most automatic and newest way is to simply let sizers determine the
- scrolling area. This is now the default when you set an interior sizer
- into a wxScrolledWindow with wxWindow::SetSizer.
- The scrolling area will be set to the size requested by the sizer and
- the scrollbars will be assigned for each orientation according to the need
- for them and the scrolling increment set by
- wxScrolledWindow::SetScrollRate.
- As above, scrolling is only enabled in orientations with a non-zero
- increment. You can influence the minimum size of the scrolled area
- controlled by a sizer by calling
- wxWindow::SetVirtualSizeHints.
- (calling wxScrolledWindow::SetScrollbars
- has analogous effects in wxWidgets 2.4 -- in later versions it may not continue
- to override the sizer)
-
- Note: if Maximum size hints are still supported by SetVirtualSizeHints, use
- them at your own dire risk. They may or may not have been removed for 2.4,
- but it really only makes sense to set minimum size hints here. We should
- probably replace SetVirtualSizeHints with SetMinVirtualSize or similar
- and remove it entirely in future.
-
- As with all windows, an application can draw onto a wxScrolledWindow using
- a @ref overview_dcoverview "device context".
-
- You have the option of handling the OnPaint handler
- or overriding the wxScrolledWindow::OnDraw function, which is
- passed a pre-scrolled device context (prepared by
- wxScrolledWindow::DoPrepareDC).
-
- If you don't wish to calculate your own scrolling, you must call DoPrepareDC
- when not drawing from
- within OnDraw, to set the device origin for the device context according to the
- current
- scroll position.
-
- A wxScrolledWindow will normally scroll itself and therefore its child windows
- as well. It
- might however be desired to scroll a different window than itself: e.g. when
- designing a
- spreadsheet, you will normally only have to scroll the (usually white) cell
- area, whereas the
- (usually grey) label area will scroll very differently. For this special
- purpose, you can
- call wxScrolledWindow::SetTargetWindow which means that pressing
- the scrollbars will scroll a different window.
-
- Note that the underlying system knows nothing about scrolling coordinates, so
- that all system
- functions (mouse events, expose events, refresh calls etc) as well as the
- position of subwindows
- are relative to the "physical" origin of the scrolled window. If the user
- insert a child window at
+ scrolling area. This is now the default when you set an interior sizer into
+ a wxScrolled with wxWindow::SetSizer(). The scrolling area will be
+ set to the size requested by the sizer and the scrollbars will be assigned
+ for each orientation according to the need for them and the scrolling
+ increment set by SetScrollRate(). As above, scrolling is only enabled in
+ orientations with a non-zero increment. You can influence the minimum size
+ of the scrolled area controlled by a sizer by calling
+ wxWindow::SetVirtualSizeHints(). (Calling SetScrollbars() has analogous
+ effects in wxWidgets 2.4 -- in later versions it may not continue to
+ override the sizer.)
+
+ Note that if maximum size hints are still supported by
+ wxWindow::SetVirtualSizeHints(), use them at your own dire risk. They may
+ or may not have been removed for 2.4, but it really only makes sense to set
+ minimum size hints here. We should probably replace
+ wxWindow::SetVirtualSizeHints() with wxWindow::SetMinVirtualSize() or
+ similar and remove it entirely in future.
+
+ As with all windows, an application can draw onto a wxScrolled using a
+ @ref overview_dc "device context".
+
+ You have the option of handling the OnPaint handler or overriding the
+ wxScrolled::OnDraw() function, which is passed a pre-scrolled device
+ context (prepared by wxScrolled::DoPrepareDC()).
