void CEGUI::System::notifyDisplaySizeChanged ( const Size & new_size )

Notification function to be called when the main display changes size. Client code should call this function when the host window changes size, or if the display resolution is changed in full-screen mode.

Calling this function ensures that any other parts of the system that
need to know about display size changes are notified.  This affects
things such as the MouseCursor default constraint area, and also the
auto-scale functioning of Imagesets and Fonts.

Note: This function will also fire the System::EventDisplaySizeChanged event.

Parameters

new_size Size object describing the new display size in pixels.

void CEGUI::System::notifyWindowDestroyed ( const Window * window )

Internal method used to inform the System object whenever a window is destroyed, so that System can perform any required housekeeping.

Note: This method is not intended for client code usage. If you use this method anything can, and probably will, go wrong!

void CEGUI::System::renderGUI ( void )

Render the GUI.

    Depending upon the internal state, this may either re-use rendering from last time, or trigger a full re-draw from all elements.

Returns: Nothing

void CEGUI::System::setDefaultFont ( const String & name )

Parameters

font	Pointer to the font to be used as the system default.

Returns: Nothing.

void CEGUI::System::setDefaultMouseCursor ( const Image * image )

Set the image to be used as the default mouse cursor.

image Pointer to an image object that is to be used as the default mouse cursor. To have no cursor rendered by default, you can specify NULL here.

Returns: Nothing.

void CEGUI::System::setDefaultMouseCursor ( MouseCursorImage image )

inline

Set the image to be used as the default mouse cursor.

Parameters

image One of the MouseCursorImage enumerated values.

Returns: Nothing.

References setDefaultMouseCursor().

Referenced by setDefaultMouseCursor().

void CEGUI::System::setDefaultMouseCursor	(	const String &	imageset,
		const String &	image_name
	)

Set the image to be used as the default mouse cursor.

Parameters

imageset	String object that contains the name of the Imageset that contains the image to be used.
image_name	String object that contains the name of the Image on imageset that is to be used.

Returns: Nothing.

Exceptions

UnknownObjectException thrown if imageset is not known, or if imageset contains no Image named image_name.

void CEGUI::System::setDefaultTooltip ( Tooltip * tooltip )

Set the system default Tooltip object. This value may be NULL to indicate that no default Tooltip will be available.

Parameters

tooltip Pointer to a valid Tooltip based object which should be used as the default tooltip for the system, or NULL to indicate that no system default tooltip is required. Note that when passing a pointer to a Tooltip object, ownership of the Tooltip does not pass to System.

Returns: Nothing.

void CEGUI::System::setDefaultTooltip ( const String & tooltipType )

Set the system default Tooltip to be used by specifying a Window type.

System will internally attempt to create an instance of the specified window type (which must be
derived from the base Tooltip class).  If the Tooltip creation fails, the error is logged and no
system default Tooltip will be available.

Parameters

tooltipType String object holding the name of the Tooltip based Window type which should be used as the Tooltip for the system default.

Returns: Nothing.

static void CEGUI::System::setDefaultXMLParserName ( const String & parserName )

static

Static member to set the name of the default XML parser module that should be used.

If you want to modify the default parser from the one compiled in, you
need to call this static member prior to instantiating the main
CEGUI::System object.

Note that calling this member to change the name of the default module
after CEGUI::System, and therefore the default xml parser, has been
created will have no real effect - the default parser name will be
updated, though no actual changes to the xml parser module will occur.

The built-in options for this are:
 - XercesParser
 - ExpatParser
 - LibxmlParser
 - TinyXMLParser

Whether these are actually available, depends upon how you built the
system.  If you have some custom parser, you can provide the name of
that here to have it used as the default, though note that the
final filename of the parser module should be of the form:

[prefix]CEGUI[parserName][suffix]

where:
- [prefix] is some optional prefix; like 'lib' on linux.
- CEGUI is a required prefix.
- [parserName] is the name of the parser, as supplied to this function.
- [suffix] is the filename suffix, like .dll or .so

Final module filenames are, thus, of the form:
- CEGUIXercesParser.dll
- libCEGUIXercesParser.so

Parameters

parserName String describing the name of the xml parser module to be used as the default.

Returns: Nothing.

Window* CEGUI::System::setGUISheet ( Window * sheet )

Set the active GUI sheet (root) window.

Parameters

sheet Pointer to a Window object that will become the new GUI 'root'

Returns: Pointer to the window that was previously set as the GUI root.

void CEGUI::System::setImageCodec ( ImageCodec & codec )

Set the image codec to use from an existing image codec.

In this case the renderer does not take the ownership of the image codec
object.

Parameters

codec The ImageCodec object to be used.

void CEGUI::System::setModalTarget ( Window * target )

inline

Internal method to directly set the current modal target.

Note: This method is called internally by Window, and must be used by client code. Doing so will most likely not have the expected results.

void CEGUI::System::setMouseMoveScaling ( float scaling )

Set the current mouse movement scaling factor.

Parameters

scaling float value specifying the scaling to be applied to mouse movement inputs.

Returns: nothing.

void CEGUI::System::setMultiClickTimeout ( double timeout )

Set the timeout to be used for the generation of multi-click events.

    A multi-click event is a double-click, or a triple-click.  The value
returned here is the maximum allowable time between mouse button down
events for which a multi-click event will be generated.

Parameters

timeout double value equal to the multi-click timeout value to be used from now onwards.

Note: A timeout value of 0 indicates infinity and so no timeout occurrs; as long as the mouse is in the prescribed area, an appropriate mouse button event will therefore always be raised.

Returns: Nothing.

void CEGUI::System::setMultiClickToleranceAreaSize ( const Size & sz )

Set the size of the allowable mouse movement tolerance used when generating multi-click events.

    This size defines an area with the mouse at the centre.  The mouse must stay within the tolerance defined
    for a multi-click (double click, or triple click) event to be generated.

Parameters

sz	Size object describing the multi-click tolerance area size to be used.

Returns: Nothing.

void CEGUI::System::setScriptingModule ( ScriptModule * scriptModule )

Set the ScriptModule to be used for scripting within the GUI system.

Parameters

scriptModule Pointer to a ScriptModule based object, or 0 for none (be careful!)

Returns: Nothing

void CEGUI::System::setSingleClickTimeout ( double timeout )

Set the timeout used for generation of single-click events.

    A single-click is defined here as a button being pressed and then
released.

Parameters

timeout double value equal to the single-click timeout value to be used from now onwards.

Note: A timeout value of 0 indicates infinity and so no timeout occurrs; as long as the mouse is in the prescribed area, a mouse button 'clicked' event will therefore always be raised.

Returns: Nothing.

void CEGUI::System::setXMLParser ( const String & parserName )

Set a new XML parser module to be used.

The current XMLParser will be cleaned up and, if owned by the system,
also deleted, as will any dynamically loaded module associated with the
XMLParser object.  The newly created XMLParser object, and the
associated module will be owned by the system.

Parameters

parserName String object describing the name of the XML parser module to be used.

void CEGUI::System::setXMLParser ( XMLParser * parser )

Sets the XMLParser object to be used by the system.

The current XMLParser will be cleaned up and, if owned by the system,
also deleted, as will any dynamically loaded module associated with the
XMLParser object.

If the argument passed in the \a parser parameter is 0, the system will
cleanup any existing parser as described above, and revert to using
the parser provided by the default module (see getDefaultXMLParserName
and setDefaultXMLParserName).

Parameters

parser Pointer to the XMLParser object to be used by the system, or 0 to cause the system to initialise a default parser.

void CEGUI::System::signalRedraw ( )

inline

Causes a full re-draw next time renderGUI() is called.

Returns: Nothing

bool CEGUI::System::updateWindowContainingMouse ( )

Perform updates with regards to the window that contains the mouse cursor, firing any required MouseEnters / MouseLeaves events.

Note: The CEGUI system components call this member as a matter of course, in most cases there will be no need for user / client code to call this member directly.

Returns

true if the window containing the mouse had changed.
false if the window containing the mouse had not changed.
