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
typeString object holding Window type (usually provided by WindowFactory).
nameString 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
virtual void CEGUI::Window::addChild_impl ( Element element)
protectedvirtual

Add given element to child list at an appropriate position.

Reimplemented from CEGUI::NamedElement.

Reimplemented in CEGUI::ScrollablePane, CEGUI::TabControl, CEGUI::GridLayoutContainer, CEGUI::LayoutContainer, CEGUI::LayoutCell, and CEGUI::GroupBox.

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
wndWindow object to be added to the drawing list.
at_backIndicates 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
textString object holding the text that is to be appended to the Window object's current text string.
void CEGUI::Window::banPropertyFromXML ( const String property_name)

Add the named property to the XML ban list for this window.

Parameters
property_nameName of the property you want to ban

Essentially a property that is banned from XML will never end up being saved to it. This is very useful if 2 properties overlap (XPosition and Position for example).

Please note that properties that are not writable (read-only properties) are implicitly/automatically banned from XML, no need to ban them manually.

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 bool  deepCopy = true) const

Clones this Window and returns the result.

Parameters
deepCopyif true, even children are copied
Returns
the cloned Window
Window* CEGUI::Window::createChild ( const String type,
const String name = "" 
)

Creates a child window attached to this window.

Parameters
typeString that describes the type of Window to be created. A valid WindowFactory for the specified type must be registered.
nameString that holds the name that is to be given to the new window. If this string is empty, a name will be generated for the window.
Returns
Pointer to the newly created child Window object.
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::destroyChild ( Window wnd)

Destroys a child window of this window.

Parameters
wndThe child window to destroy
void CEGUI::Window::destroyChild ( const String name_path)

Destroys a child window of this window.

Parameters
name_pathName path that references the window to destroy
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
ctxRenderingContext holding the details of the RenderingSurface to be used for the Window rendering operations.
Returns
Nothing

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.
float CEGUI::Window::getAutoRepeatDelay ( void  ) const

Return the current auto-repeat delay setting for this window.

Returns
float value indicating the delay, in seconds, defore the first repeat mouse button down event will be triggered when autorepeat is enabled.
float CEGUI::Window::getAutoRepeatRate ( void  ) const

Return the current auto-repeat rate setting for this window.

Returns
float value indicating the rate, in seconds, at which repeat mouse button down events will be generated after the initial delay has expired.
Window* CEGUI::Window::getCaptureWindow ( ) const
inline

return the Window that currently has inputs captured.

Returns
Pointer to the Window object that currently has inputs captured, or NULL if no Window has captured input.
Window* CEGUI::Window::getChild ( const String name_path) const
inline

return the attached child window that the given name path references.

A name path is a string that describes a path down the window
hierarchy using window names and the forward slash '/' as a separator.
For example, if this window has a child attached to it named "Panel" which has its own children attached named "Okay" and "Cancel", you can access the window "Okay" from this window by using the name path "Panel/Okay". To access "Panel", you would simply pass the name "Panel".
Parameters
name_pathString object holding the name path of the child window to return.
Returns
the Window object referenced by name_path.
Exceptions
UnknownObjectExceptionthrown if name_path does not reference a Window attached to this Window.
Window* CEGUI::Window::getChild ( uint  ID) const

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
IDuint 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
UnknownObjectExceptionthrown if no window with the ID code ID is attached to this Window.
Window* CEGUI::Window::getChildAtIdx ( size_t  idx) const
inline

returns a pointer to the child window at the specified index. Idx is the index of the window in the child window list. It is based on the order in which the children were added and is stable.

Parameters
idxIndex of the child window list position of the window that should be returned.This value is not bounds checked, client code should ensure that this is less than the value returned by getChildCount().
Returns
Pointer to the child window currently attached at index position idx
Window* CEGUI::Window::getChildAtPosition ( const Vector2f position) const

return the child Window that is hit by the given pixel position

Parameters
positionVector2 object describing the position to check. The position describes a pixel offset from the top-left corner of the display.
Returns
Pointer to the child Window that was hit according to the location position, or 0 if no child of this window was hit.
Window* CEGUI::Window::getChildRecursive ( const String name) const
inline

return a pointer to the first attached child window with the specified name. Children are traversed recursively.

Contrary to the non recursive version of this function, this one will
not throw an exception, but return 0 in case no child was found.
Note
WARNING! This function can be very expensive and should only be used when you have no other option available. If you decide to use it anyway, make sure the window hierarchy from the entry point is small.
Parameters
nameString object holding the name of the window to return a pointer to.
Returns
Pointer to the (first) Window object attached to this window that has the name name. If no child is found with the name name, 0 is returned.
Window* CEGUI::Window::getChildRecursive ( uint  ID) const

return a pointer to the first attached child window with the specified ID value. Children are traversed recursively.

Contrary to the non recursive version of this function, this one will
not throw an exception, but return 0 in case no child was found.
Note
WARNING! This function can be very expensive and should only be used when you have no other option available. If you decide to use it anyway, make sure the window hierarchy from the entry point is small.
Parameters
IDuint 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. If no child is found with the ID code ID, 0 is returned.
const Rectf& CEGUI::Window::getClipRect ( const bool  non_client = false) const

Return a Rect that describes the rendering clipping rect for the Window.

This function can return the clipping rect for either the inner or outer
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.
Parameters
non_client
  • true to return the non-client clipping area (based on outer rect).
  • false to return the client clipping area (based on inner rect).
float CEGUI::Window::getEffectiveAlpha ( void  ) const

return the effective alpha value that will be used when rendering this window, taking into account inheritance of parent window(s) alpha.

Returns
uint value equal to the currently assigned ID code for this Window.
const Rectf& CEGUI::Window::getInnerRectClipper ( ) const

Return a Rect that describes the rendering clipping rect based upon the inner rect area of the window.

Note
The area returned by this function gives you the correct clipping rect for rendering within the Window's inner rect area. 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.

Note
The area returned by this function gives you the correct clipping rect for rendering within the Window's outer rect area. 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.
Window* CEGUI::Window::getParent ( ) const
inline

return the parent of this Window.

Returns
Pointer to the Window object that is the parent of this Window. This value can be NULL, in which case the Window is a GUI sheet / root.

Returns
  • true if the window is disabled.
  • false if the window is enabled.
bool CEGUI::Window::isEffectiveVisible ( ) 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.
Note
Does check the state set for this window, but also factors 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.

Return whether Window thinks mouse is currently within its area.

Note
If the mouse cursor has moved or Window's area has changed since the last time the GUIContext updated the window hit information, the value returned here may be inaccurate - this is not a bug, but is required to ensure correct handling of certain events.
bool CEGUI::Window::isMouseInputPropagationEnabled ( ) const

Return whether mouse input that is not directly handled by this Window (including it's event subscribers) should be propagated back to the Window's parent.

Returns
  • true if unhandled mouse input will be propagated to the parent.
  • false if unhandled mouse input will not be propagated.

bool CEGUI::Window::isRiseOnClickEnabled ( void  ) const
inline

Return whether this window will rise to the top of the z-order when clicked with the left mouse button.

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.
Returns
  • true if the window will come to the top of other windows when the left mouse button is pushed within its area.
  • false if the window does not change z-order position when the left mouse button is pushed within its area.
bool CEGUI::Window::isTopOfZOrder ( ) const
protected

Return whether the window is at the top of the Z-Order. This will correctly take into account 'Always on top' windows as needed.

Returns
  • true if the Window is at the top of the z-order in relation to sibling windows with the same 'always on top' setting.
  • false if the Window is not at the top of the z-order in relation to sibling windows with the same 'always on top' setting.
bool CEGUI::Window::isUserStringDefined ( const String name) const

Return whether a user string with the specified name exists.

Parameters
nameString object holding the name of the string to be checked.
Returns
  • true if a user string named name exists.
  • false if no such user string exists.
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
bool CEGUI::Window::isUsingDefaultTooltip ( void  ) const

Return whether this Window is using the system default Tooltip for its Tooltip window.

Returns
  • true if the Window will use the system default tooltip.
  • false if the window has a custom Tooltip object.
bool CEGUI::Window::isVisible ( ) 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.
Note
Only checks the state set for this window, and does not factor in inherited state from ancestor windows.
Returns
  • true if the window is set as visible.
  • false if the window is set as hidden.
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.

  all sibling always-on-top windows and the process repeated for all
  ancestors.
Returns
Nothing
void CEGUI::Window::moveToFront ( )

Move the Window to the top of the z order.

virtual void CEGUI::Window::performChildWindowLayout ( bool  nonclient_sized_hint = false,
bool  client_sized_hint = false 
)
virtual

Layout child window content.

Laying out of child content includes:
    - ensuring content specified in any assigned WidgetLook has its area
      rectangles sychronised.
    - assigned WindowRenderer given the opportunity to update child
      content areas as needed.
    - All content is then potentially updated via the onParentSized
      notification as required by changes in non-client and client area
      rectangles.

The system may call this at various times (like when a window is resized
for example), and it may be invoked directly where required.
Parameters
nonclient_sized_hintHint that the non-client area rectangle has changed size.
client_sized_hintHint that the client area rectangle has changed size.
Note
The hint parameters are essentially a way to force onParentSized notifications for a given type (client / nonclient) of child window. Setting a hint to false does not mean a notification will not happen, instead it means that the function is to do its best to determine whether a given notification is required to be sent.

void CEGUI::Window::setAlpha ( const float  alpha)

Set the current alpha value 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.

Parameters
posUVector2 object describing the new area position.
sizeUSize object describing the new area size.
topLeftSizing
  • true to indicate the the operation is a sizing operation on the top and/or left edges of the area, and so element movement should be inhibited if size is at max or min.
  • false to indicate the operation is not a strict sizing operation on the top and/or left edges and that the element position may change as required
fireEvents
  • true if events should be fired as normal.
  • false to inhibit firing of events (required, for example, if you need to call this from the onSize/onMove handlers).

Note
This is really intended as an internal function. The way that client code is supposed to use skins is by defining a Falagard mapping (either in a scheme xml file or in code) and then create instances of that mapped type via WindowManager. See WindowFactoryManager::addFalagardWindowMapping and Scheme XML files.. With that being said, it is possible for client code to use this function so long as you are aware of the implications of doing so:
  • Automatically created child windows (AutoWindows) will be deleted, and references or pointers you hold to these will become invalid.
  • Aside from those absolutely required, there is not guarantee that the newly assigned look will create the same set of child windows, nor that any created windows will be of any given type.
  • Any properties set on automatically created child windows after their creation will be lost - even if the new look creates a child of the same type with the same name.

Reimplemented in CEGUI::Tree.

void CEGUI::Window::setModalState ( bool  state)

Set the modal state for this Window.

Parameters
stateBoolean value defining if this Window should be the modal target.
  • true if this Window should be activated and set as the modal target.
  • false if the modal target should be cleared if this Window is currently the modal target.
Returns
Nothing.
void CEGUI::Window::setMouseAutoRepeatEnabled ( bool  setting)

Set whether mouse button down event autorepeat is enabled for this window.

Parameters
setting
  • true to enable autorepeat of mouse button down events.
  • false to disable autorepeat of mouse button down events.
Returns
Nothing.
void CEGUI::Window::setMouseCursor ( const Image image)

Set the mouse cursor image to be used when the mouse enters this window.

Parameters
imagePointer to the Image object to use as the mouse cursor image when the mouse enters the area for this Window.
Returns
Nothing.
void CEGUI::Window::setMouseCursor ( const String name)

Set the mouse cursor image to be used when the mouse enters this window.

Parameters
imagesetString object that contains the name of the Imageset that contains the image to be used.
nameString object that contains the name of the Image to use.
Returns
Nothing.
Exceptions
UnknownObjectExceptionthrown if no Image named name exists.
void CEGUI::Window::setMouseInputPropagationEnabled ( const bool  enabled)

Set whether mouse input that is not directly handled by this Window (including it's event subscribers) should be propagated back to the Window's parent.

Parameters
enabled
  • true if unhandled mouse input should be propagated to the parent.
  • false if unhandled mouse input should not be propagated.
void CEGUI::Window::setMousePassThroughEnabled ( bool  setting)
inline

Sets whether this window should ignore mouse events and pass them through to any windows behind it. In effect making the window transparent to the mouse.

Parameters
settingtrue if mouse pass through is enabled. false if mouse pass through is not enabled.
virtual void CEGUI::Window::setParent ( Element parent)
protectedvirtual

Set the parent window for this window object.

Parameters
parentPointer to a Window object that is to be assigned as the parent to this Window.
Returns
Nothing

Reimplemented from CEGUI::Element.

void CEGUI::Window::setRenderingSurface ( RenderingSurface surface)

Set the RenderingSurface to be associated with this Window, or 0 if none is required.

If this function is called, and the option for automatic use of an imagery caching RenderingSurface is enabled, any automatically created RenderingSurface will be released, and the affore mentioned option will be disabled.
If after having set a custom RenderingSurface you then subsequently enable the automatic use of an imagery caching RenderingSurface by calling setUsingAutoRenderingSurface, the previously set RenderingSurface will be disassociated from the Window. Note that the previous RenderingSurface is not destroyed or cleaned up at all - this is the job of whoever created that object initially.
Parameters
targetPointer to the RenderingSurface object to be associated with the window.
void CEGUI::Window::setRestoreOldCapture ( bool  setting)

Set whether this window will remember and restore the previous window that had inputs captured.

Parameters
setting
  • true: The window will remember and restore the previous capture window. The CaptureLost event is not fired on the previous window when this window steals input capture. When this window releases capture, the old capture window is silently restored.
  • false: Input capture works as normal, each window losing capture is signalled via CaptureLost, and upon the final release of capture, no previous setting is restored (this is the default behaviour).
Returns
Nothing
void CEGUI::Window::setRiseOnClickEnabled ( bool  setting)
inline

Set whether this window will rise to the top of the z-order when clicked with the left mouse button.

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.
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.
void CEGUI::Window::setText ( const String text)

Set the current text string for the Window.

Parameters
textString object containing the text that is to be set as the Window text.
Returns
Nothing
void CEGUI::Window::setTooltip ( Tooltip tooltip)

Set the custom Tooltip object for this Window. This value may be 0 to indicate that the Window should use the system default Tooltip object.

Parameters
tooltipPointer 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
tipString 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
tooltipTypeString 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
modeOne 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_datapointer 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
nameString object holding the name of the string to be returned.
valueString 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
void CEGUI::Window::setVisible ( bool  setting)

Set whether the Window is visible or hidden.

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)

Set whether this window will receive multi-click events or multiple 'down' events instead.

Parameters
setting
  • true if the Window will receive double-click and triple-click events.
  • false if the Window will receive multiple mouse button down events instead of double/triple click events.
Returns
Nothing.
void CEGUI::Window::setWindowRenderer ( const String name)

Assign the WindowRenderer type to be used when rendering this window.

Parameters
nameThe factory name of the WindowRenderer to use.
Note
This is really intended as an internal function. The way that client code is supposed to use skins is by defining a Falagard mapping (either in a scheme xml file or in code) and then create instances of that mapped type via WindowManager. See WindowFactoryManager::addFalagardWindowMapping and Scheme XML files..
void CEGUI::Window::setZOrderingEnabled ( bool  setting)

Set 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.
Parameters
setting
  • 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.
Returns
Nothing.
void CEGUI::Window::show ( void  )
inline

show the Window.

Note
Showing a window does not automatically activate the window. If you want the window to also become active you will need to call the Window::activate member also.
Returns
Nothing
virtual void CEGUI::Window::update ( float  elapsed)
virtual

Cause window to update itself and any attached children. Client code does not need to call this method; to ensure full, and proper updates, call the injectTimePulse methodname method provided by the System class.

Note
The update order is such that 'this' window is updated prior to any child windows, this is so that child windows that access the parent in their update code get the correct updated state.
Parameters
elapsedfloat value indicating the number of seconds passed since the last update.
Returns
Nothing.

Reimplemented in CEGUI::LayoutContainer.

virtual void CEGUI::Window::updateSelf ( float  elapsed)
protectedvirtual

Perform actual update processing for this Window.

Parameters
elapsedfloat value indicating the number of seconds elapsed since the last update call.
Returns
Nothing.

Reimplemented in CEGUI::Tooltip, CEGUI::MenuItem, and CEGUI::PopupMenu.

virtual bool CEGUI::Window::validateWindowRenderer ( const WindowRenderer renderer) const
protectedvirtual

Function used in checking if a WindowRenderer is valid for this window.

Parameters
rendererWindow renderer that will be checked (it can be null!)
Returns
Returns true if the given WindowRenderer class name is valid for this window. False if not.

Reimplemented in CEGUI::MultiColumnList, CEGUI::ListHeader, CEGUI::Listbox, CEGUI::MultiLineEditbox, CEGUI::Editbox, CEGUI::Scrollbar, CEGUI::ItemListBase, CEGUI::ScrollablePane, CEGUI::TabControl, CEGUI::Slider, CEGUI::Tooltip, and CEGUI::ItemEntry.

bool CEGUI::Window::wantsMultiClickEvents ( void  ) const

Return whether this window will receive multi-click events or multiple 'down' events instead.

Returns
  • true if the Window will receive double-click and triple-click events.
  • false if the Window will receive multiple mouse button down events instead of double/triple click events.
virtual void CEGUI::Window::writeXMLToStream ( XMLSerializer xml_stream) const
virtual

Writes an xml representation of this window object to out_stream.

Parameters
xml_streamStream where xml data should be output.
Returns
Nothing.
