Detailed Description

An abstract base class providing common functionality and specifying the required interface for derived classes.

The Window base class is core UI object class that the the system knows about; for this reason, every other window, widget, or similar item within the system must be derived from Window.

The base class provides the common functionality required by all UI objects, and specifies the minimal interface required to be implemented by derived classes.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

CEGUI::Window::Window	(	const String &	type,
		const String &	name
	)

Constructor for Window base class.

Parameters

type	String object holding Window type (usually provided by WindowFactory).
name	String object holding unique name for the Window.

Member Function Documentation

void CEGUI::Window::activate

(

void

)

Activate the Window giving it input focus and bringing it to the top of all windows with the same always-on-top settig as this Window.

Returns

Nothing

void CEGUI::Window::addChildWindow

(

const String &

name

)

Add the named Window as a child of this Window. If the Window name is already attached to a Window, it is detached before being added to this Window.

Parameters

name	String object holding the name of the Window to be added.

Returns

Nothing.

Exceptions

UnknownObjectException	thrown if no Window named name exists.
InvalidRequestException	thrown if Window name is an ancestor of this Window, to prevent cyclic Window structures.

void CEGUI::Window::addChildWindow

(

Window *

window

)

Add the specified Window as a child of this Window. If the Window window is already attached to a Window, it is detached before being added to this Window.

Parameters

window

Pointer to the Window object to be added.

Returns

Nothing

Exceptions

InvalidRequestException

thrown if Window window is an ancestor of this Window, to prevent cyclic Window structures.

void CEGUI::Window::addWindowToDrawList ( Window &  wnd, bool  at_back = false  )

protected

Add the given window to the drawing list at an appropriate position for it's settings and the required direction. Basically, when at_back is false, the window will appear in front of all other windows with the same 'always on top' setting. When at_back is true, the window will appear behind all other windows wih the same 'always on top' setting.

Parameters

wnd	Window object to be added to the drawing list.
at_back	Indicates whether the window should be placed at the back of other windows in the same group. If this is false, the window is placed in front of other windows in the group.

Returns

Nothing.

void CEGUI::Window::appendText

(

const String &

text

)

Append the string text to the currect text string for the Window object.

Parameters

text	String object holding the text that is to be appended to the Window object's current text string.

void CEGUI::Window::bufferGeometry ( const RenderingContext &  ctx )

protected

Perform drawing operations concerned with generating and buffering window geometry.

Note

This function is a sub-function of drawSelf; it is provided to make it easier to override drawSelf without needing to duplicate large sections of the code from the default implementation.

bool CEGUI::Window::captureInput

(

void

)

Captures input to this window.

Returns

• true if input was successfully captured to this window.
• false if input could not be captured to this window (maybe because the window is not active).

Window* CEGUI::Window::clone	(	const String &	newName,
		const bool	deepCopy = true
	)		const

Clones this Window and returns the result.

Parameters

newName	new name of the cloned window
deepCopy	if true, even children are copied (the old name prefix will be replaced with new name prefix)

Returns

the cloned Window

void CEGUI::Window::deactivate

(

void

)

Deactivate the window. No further inputs will be received by the window until it is re-activated either programmatically or by the user interacting with the gui.

Returns

Nothing.

virtual void CEGUI::Window::destroy ( void  )

virtual

Internal destroy method which actually just adds the window and any parent destructed child windows to the dead pool.

This is virtual to allow for specialised cleanup which may be required
in some advanced cases.  If you override this for the above reason, you
MUST call this base class version.

Note

You never have to call this method yourself, use WindowManager to destroy your Window objects (which will call this for you).

Reimplemented in CEGUI::ScrollablePane.

void CEGUI::Window::disable ( void  )

inline

disable the Window to prevent interaction.

Returns

Nothing

bool CEGUI::Window::distributesCapturedInputs

(

void

)

const

Return whether the window wants inputs passed to its attached child windows when the window has inputs captured.

Returns

• true if System should pass captured input events to child windows.
• false if System should pass captured input events to this window only.

virtual void CEGUI::Window::drawSelf ( const RenderingContext &  ctx )

protectedvirtual

Perform the actual rendering for this Window.

Parameters

ctx	RenderingContext holding the details of the RenderingSurface to be used for the Window rendering operations.

Returns

Nothing

Reimplemented in CEGUI::TabControl, CEGUI::ScrolledContainer, and CEGUI::ClippedContainer.

void CEGUI::Window::enable ( void  )

inline

enable the Window to allow interaction.

Returns

Nothing

Window* CEGUI::Window::getActiveChild

(

void

)

return a pointer to the Window that currently has input focus starting with this Window.

Returns

Pointer to the window that is active (has input focus) starting at this window. The function will return 'this' if this Window is active and either no children are attached or if none of the attached children are active. Returns NULL if this Window (and therefore all children) are not active.

Window* CEGUI::Window::getActiveSibling

(

)

Returns the active sibling window.

This searches the immediate children of this window's parent, and
returns a pointer to the active window.  The method will return this if
we are the immediate child of our parent that is active.  If our parent
is not active, or if no immediate child of our parent is active then 0
is returned.  If this window has no parent, and this window is not
active then 0 is returned, else this is returned.

Returns

A pointer to the immediate child window attached to our parent that is currently active, or 0 if no immediate child of our parent is active.

float CEGUI::Window::getAlpha ( void  ) const

inline

return the current alpha value set for this Window

Note

The alpha value set for any given window may or may not be the final alpha value that is used when rendering. All window objects, by default, inherit alpha from thier parent window(s) - this will blend child windows, relatively, down the line of inheritance. This behaviour can be overridden via the setInheritsAlpha() method. To return the true alpha value that will be applied when rendering, use the getEffectiveAlpha() method.

Returns

the currently set alpha value for this Window. The value returned Will be between 0.0f and 1.0f.

const URect& CEGUI::Window::getArea

Note

This method makes use of "Unified Dimensions". These contain both parent relative and absolute pixel components, which are used in determining the final value used.

Returns

URect describing the rectangle of the window area.

float CEGUI::Window::getAutoRepeatDelay

name

)

const

return a pointer to the child window with the specified name.

This function will throw an exception if no child object with the given
name is attached.  This decision was made (over returning NULL if no
window was found) so that client code can assume that if the call
returns it has a valid window pointer.  We provide the isChild()
functions for checking if a given window is attached.

return a pointer to the first attached child window with the specified ID value.

This function will throw an exception if no child object with the given
ID is attached.  This decision was made (over returning NULL if no
window was found) so that client code can assume that if the call
returns it has a valid window pointer.  We provide the isChild()
functions for checking if a given window is attached.

Parameters

ID	uint value specifying the ID code of the window to return a pointer to.

Returns

Pointer to the (first) Window object attached to this window that has the ID code ID.

Exceptions

const bool

non_client = false

)

const

Return a Rect that describes the area that is used to position and - for scale values - size child content attached to this Window.

By and large the area returned here will be the same as the unclipped
inner rect (for client content) or the unclipped outer rect (for non
client content), although certain advanced uses will require
alternative Rects to be returned.

Note

The behaviour of this function is modified by overriding the protected Window::getClientChildWindowContentArea_impl and/or Window::getNonClientChildWindowContentArea_impl functions.

Parameters

non_client

true to return the non-client child content area. false to return the client child content area (default).

Rect CEGUI::Window::getClipRect

area dependant upon the boolean values passed in.

Note

The areas returned by this function gives you the correct clipping rects for rendering within the Window's areas. The area described may or may not correspond to the final visual clipping actually seen on the display; this is intentional and neccessary due to the way that imagery is cached under some configurations.

(

)

const

Helper method that returns an EventSet::Iterator object that can be used to iterate over the events currently added to the EventSet of this Window.

This helper member is provided as an easy way to avoid some abiguity we have due to using multiple inheritence. Ultimately it avoids the need to do things like this (which some people don't like!):

// obtain an iterator for the EventSet
EventSet::Iterator evt_iter = myWindow->EventSet::getIterator();

// obtain an iterator for the PropertySet
PropertySet::Iterator prp_iter = myWindow->PropertySet::getIterator();

Note

Iterating over events in the EventSet is of questionable use these days, since available Events are no longer added in one batch at creation time, but are added individually whenever an event is first subscribed.

Returns

EventSet::Iterator object.

Note

This is distinguished from the is/setZOrderingEnabled setting in that if rise on click is disabled it only affects the users ability to affect the z order of the Window by clicking the mouse; is still possible to programatically alter the Window z-order by calling the moveToFront, moveToBack, moveInFront and moveBehind member functions. Whereas if z ordering is disabled those functions are also precluded from affecting the Window z position.

bool CEGUI::Window::isUsingAutoRenderingSurface

(

)

const

Returns whether automatic use of an imagery caching RenderingSurface (i.e. a RenderingWindow) is enabled for this window. The reason we emphasise 'automatic' is because the client may manually set a RenderingSurface that does exactly the same job.

Returns

• true if automatic use of a caching RenderingSurface is enabled.
• false if automatic use of a caching RenderTarget is not enabled.

bool CEGUI::Window::isUsingDefaultTooltip

(

void

)

const

• false if the window has a custom Tooltip object.

bool CEGUI::Window::isVisible

(

bool

localOnly = false

)

const

return true if the Window is currently visible.

When true is returned from this function does not mean that the window
is not completely obscured by other windows, just that the window will
be processed when rendering, and is not explicitly marked as hidden.

Parameters

localOnly

States whether to only return the state set for this window, and not to factor in inherited state from ancestor windows.

Returns

• true if the window will be drawn.
• false if the window is hidden and therefore ignored when rendering.

bool CEGUI::Window::isZOrderingEnabled

(

void

)

const

Return whether z-order changes are enabled or disabled for this Window.

Note

This is distinguished from the is/setRiseOnClickEnabled setting in that if rise on click is disabled it only affects the users ability to affect the z order of the Window by clicking the mouse; is still possible to programatically alter the Window z-order by calling the moveToFront, moveToBack, moveInFront and moveBehind member functions. Whereas if z ordering is disabled those functions are also precluded from affecting the Window z position.

Returns

• true if z-order changes are enabled for this window. moveToFront, moveToBack, moveInFront and moveBehind work normally.
• false: z-order changes are disabled for this window. moveToFront, moveToBack, moveInFront and moveBehind are ignored.

Whereas if z ordering is disabled those functions are also precluded from affecting the Window z position.

Parameters

setting

true if the window should come to the top of other windows when the left mouse button is pushed within its area. false if the window should not change z-order position when the left mouse button is pushed within its area.

Returns

Nothing.

Parameters

tooltip

Pointer to a valid Tooltip based object which should be used as the tooltip for this Window, or 0 to indicate that the Window should use the system default Tooltip object. Note that when passing a pointer to a Tooltip object, ownership of the Tooltip does not pass to this Window object.

Returns

Nothing.

void CEGUI::Window::setTooltipText

(

const String &

tip

)

Set the tooltip text for this window.

Parameters

tip	String object holding the text to be displayed in the tooltip for this Window.

Returns

Nothing.

void CEGUI::Window::setTooltipType

(

const String &

tooltipType

)

Set the custom Tooltip to be used by this Window by specifying a Window type.

The Window 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 the
Window will revert to using either the existing custom Tooltip or the
system default Tooltip.

Parameters

tooltipType

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

Returns

Nothing.

void CEGUI::Window::setUpdateMode

(

const WindowUpdateMode

mode

)

Set the window update mode. This mode controls the behaviour of the Window::update member function such that updates are processed for this window (and therefore it's child content) according to the set mode.

Note

Disabling updates can have negative effects on the behaviour of CEGUI windows and widgets; updates should be disabled selectively and cautiously - if you are unsure of what you are doing, leave the mode set to WUM_ALWAYS.

Parameters

mode	One of the WindowUpdateMode enumerated values indicating the mode to set for this Window.

void CEGUI::Window::setUserData ( void *  user_data )

inline

Set the user data set for this Window.

Each Window can have some client assigned data attached to it, this data
is not used by the GUI system in any way.  Interpretation of the data is
entirely application specific.

Parameters

user_data

pointer to the user data that is to be set for this window.

Returns

Nothing.

void CEGUI::Window::setUserString	(	const String &	name,
		const String &	value
	)

Sets the value a named user string, creating it as required.

Parameters

name	String object holding the name of the string to be returned.
value	String object holding the value to be assigned to the user string.

Returns

Nothing.

void CEGUI::Window::setUsingAutoRenderingSurface

(

bool

setting

)

Sets whether automatic use of an imagery caching RenderingSurface (i.e. a RenderingWindow) is enabled for this window. The reason we emphasise 'atutomatic' is because the client may manually set a RenderingSurface that does exactlythe same job.

Note that this setting really only controls whether the Window automatically creates and manages the RenderingSurface, as opposed to the use of the RenderingSurface. If a RenderingSurfaceis set for the Window it will be used regardless of this setting.

Enabling this option will cause the Window to attempt to create a suitable RenderingSurface (which will actually be a RenderingWindow). If there is an existing RenderingSurface assocated with this Window, it will be removed as the Window's RenderingSurface but not destroyed; whoever created the RenderingSurface in the first place should take care of its destruction.

Disabling this option will cause any automatically created RenderingSurface to be released.

It is possible that the renderer in use may not support facilities for RenderingSurfaces that are suitable for full imagery caching. If this is the case, then calling getRenderingSurface after enabling this option will return 0. In these cases this option will still show as being 'enabled', this is because Window settings should not be influenced by capabilities the renderer in use; for example, this enables correct XML layouts to be written from a Window on a system that does not support such RenderingSurfaces, so that the layout will function as preferred on systems that do.

If this option is enabled, and the client subsequently assigns a different RenderingSurface to the Window, the existing automatically created RenderingSurface will be released and this setting will be disabled.

Parameters

setting

true to enable automatic use of an imagery caching RenderingSurface. false to disable automatic use of an imagery caching RenderingSurface.

void CEGUI::Window::setVerticalAlignment

(

const VerticalAlignment

alignment

)

Set the vertical alignment.

void CEGUI::Window::setVisible

(

bool

setting

)

Parameters

setting

true to make the Window visible. false to make the Window hidden.

Note

Hiding the active window will cause that window to become deactivated. Showing a window does not, however, automatically cause that window to become the active window (call Window::activate after making the window visible to activate it).

Returns

Nothing

void CEGUI::Window::setWantsMultiClickEvents

(

bool

setting

)

void CEGUI::Window::setZOrderingEnabled

(

bool

setting

)

Set whether z-order changes are enabled or disabled for this Window.
