NAME

Tk::TixGrid - Create and manipulate Tix Grid widgets
 

SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

Individual cells, or groups of cells, can be formatted with a wide range of attributes, such as its color, relief and border. However because the widget is intended to handle large grids the mechanisms to achieve these are lower level, and more callback oriented than for other widgets. The assumption is that to avoid storing display details of a large number of cells, the data will be re-computed as needed.

The port of Tix C code and some of the bindings to perl/Tk is done but still need further work. In several places the intent of the Tix code is not yet understood. For example the 'edit' interface is clearly intended for spread-sheet like cell content editing in an auxillary ``entry'' widget or similar, but how that should work is not yet clear.

The TixGrid method creates a new TixGrid window and returns a blessed reference of this TixGrid widget. Additional options, described below, may be specified on the command line or in the option database to configure aspects of the TixGrid widget.  

STANDARD OPTIONS

See Tk::options for details of the standard options.  

WIDGET-SPECIFIC OPTIONS

Name:        browseCmd

Class:      BrowseCmd

Switch:      -browsecmd

If defined, gives a perl/Tk callback to be executed when the
user browses a grid cell (This is normally the case when the user clicks on an entry). When this callback is called, it is passed with two additional parameters: x y, where (x,y) is the location of the cell that has just been clicked.

Name:  Command

Class:      Command

Switch:      -command

If defined, gives a perl/Tk callback to be executed when the
user double-clicks a grid cell. When this callback is called, it is passed with two additional parameters: x y, where (x,y) is the location of the cell that has just been clicked.

Name:  editDoneCmd

Class:      EditDoneCmd

Switch:      -editdonecmd

If defined, gives a perl/Tk callback
to be executed when the user has edited grid cell. When this callback is called, it is passed with two additional parameters: x y, where (x,y) is the location of the cell that has just been edited.

Name:  editNotifyCmd

Class:      EditNotifyCmd

Switch:      -editnotifycmd

If defined gives a perl/Tk callback
to be executed when the user tries to edit a grid cell. When this callback is called, it is passed with two additional parameters: x y, where (x,y,) is the location of the cell. This callback should return a boolean value: true indicates that the cell is editable and false otherwise.

Name:  FloatingCols

Class:      floatingCols

Switch:      -floatingcols

Defines the number of extra columns beyond the existing grid
that can be brought into view by scrolling.

Name:  FloatingRows

Class:      floatingRows

Switch:      -floatingrows

Defines the number of extra rows beyond the the existing grid
that can be brought into view by scrolling.

Name:  formatCmd

Class:      FormatCmd

Switch:      -formatcmd

If defined, gives a perl/Tk callback to be
executed when the grid cells need to be displayed on the screen. Its primary purpose is to draw the background of the region before the cells are rendered on top. This is normally achieved by calling formatGrid or formatBorder (see below). However other uses can be made of this low-level callback. For example it can be used to ``lazily'' populate the grid by calling the set method only as cells come into view.

When this callback is called, it is passed with five additional parameters: type x1 y1 x2 y2.

x1 y1 x2 y2 gives the extent of the region that needs formatting.

type gives the logical type of the region in the grid. It may be one of the following.

x_region

The horizontal margin.

y_region

The vertical margin.

s_region

The area in the top left corner where the horizontal and vertical margins are joined.

main

The main body i.e. all the cells that do not fall into the above three types.

Name: leftMargin

Class:      LeftMargin

Switch:      -leftmargin

Gives the width of vertical margin in cells (columns).
A zero indicates that no vertical margin exists. A positive value N indicates that first N columns are ``labels'' and are always displayed and not scrolled.

Name:  itemType

Class:      ItemType

Switch:      -itemtype

Default item type for cells.

Name:  selectMode

Class:      SelectMode

Switch:      -selectmode

Specifies one of several styles for manipulating the selection.
The value of the option may be arbitrary, but the default bindings expect it to be either single, browse, multiple, or extended; the default value is single.

Name:  selectUnit

Class:      SelectUnit

Switch:      -selectunit

Specifies the selection unit. Valid values are cell, column or row.

Name:  sizeCmd

Class:      SizeCmd

Switch:      -sizecmd

Callback is called (with no extra arguments) when grid sizes are
re-computed. For example if window changes size, a different font is specified etc.

It is called just after scrollbars (if present) are updated.

Name:  topMargin

Class:      TopMargin

Switch:      -topmargin

Gives the width of horizontal margin in cells (rows).
A zero indicates that no horizontal margin exists. A positive value N indicates that first N rows are ``labels'' and are always displayed and not scrolled.

WIDGET METHODS

 $tixgrid->method?(arg, arg, ...)?

args determine the exact behavior of the method.

This object supports the configure and cget methods described in Tk::options which can be used to enquire and modify the options described above. The widget also inherits all the methods provided by the generic Tk::Widget class.

The following additional methods are possible for TixGrid widgets:

$tixgrid->anchorGet(x, y)

$tixgrid->anchorSet(x, y)

$tixgrid->anchorClear

Manipulates the anchor cell of the TixGrid widget. The anchor cell is the end of the selection that is fixed while the user is dragging out a selection with the mouse.

($bd,$col,$row) = $tixgrid->bdtype(x,y ?,xDelta,yDelta?)

Determines if the the screen (pixel) position x,y is in a border. This is useful for changing the mouse cursor when the user points at a border - e.g. to indicate that the border can be adjusted interactively.

If in a border returns a list of three elements. First element is 'xy', 'x' or 'y', second two elements are integers. (Value of these are not understood, seem to indicate which column and row of the border the screen position corresponds to?)

If not in a border returns an empty list.

$tixgrid->delete(dim, from?, to?)

$tixgrid->deleteColumn(from?, to?)

$tixgrid->deleteRow(from?, to?)

Dim may be row or column. If to is not given, deletes a single row (or column) at the position from. If to is given, deletes the range of rows (or columns) from position from through to.

$tixgrid->dragsite(option, x, y)

$tixgrid->dropsite(option, x, y)

Tcl/Tix has (or was going to have) Drag&Drop support. Meaning for perl/Tk is not clear yet.

$tixgrid->editApply

If any cell is being edited, de-highlight the cell and applies the changes.

$tixgrid->editSet(x, y)

Highlights the cell at (x,y) for editing, if the -editnotify callback returns true for this cell.

$tixgrid->entrycget(x, y, '-option')

$tixgrid->entryconfigure(x, y?, -option??=>value, -option=>value, ...?)

Provide a configue interface to cells in the grid. The -options depend on the item type of the cell.

$tixgrid->formatBorder(x1,y1, x2,y2, options);

$tixgrid->formatGrid(x1,y1, x2,y2, options);

The formatBorder and formatBorder methods can only be called by the -formatcmd callback of the tixGrid widget. They draw the background of the region described by x1,y1, x2,y2 according the the supplied options. One call to -formatcmd callback can make multiple calls to formatBorder and/or formatBorder for different sub-regions.

formatBorder draws the background using Tk relief style, formatGrid also draws grid lines between the cells. It only makes sense to call one or the other for a particular sub-region as one will over-write the other.

The options allowed are:

-background / -bg

-borderwidth / -bd

-filled

-relief

-selectbackground

-xoff

-xon

-yoff

-yon

The -xon/-xoff and -yon/-yoff options are obscure. If anyone can figure out how to do something interesting given what pTk/tixGrFmt.c is doing with them please let Nick know!.

$tixgrid->geometryinfo(?width, height?)

Returns list of four values - two sets of two floating point numbers. First set is the scrollbar fractions for x direction, second set is scrollbar fractions for y direction. If width and height are specified then fractions are based on as if window size was of specified size (in pixels, but not allowing normal GetPixels units). Otherwise fractions are based on current size of the window.

Usage obscure.

$tixgrid->index(xcoord, ycoord)

Retuns (x, y) of entry at position ($coordx, $coordy). Either coordinate may be 'max' which is largest existing entry in that direction, 'end' which is one beyond largest existing entry, or a number. (This is how you find out how big the grid is.)

$tixgrid->infoBbox(x,y)

Return the pixel bounding box of the cell at x,y.

$tixgrid->infoExists(x,y)

Returns true if there is an item in the cell at x,y. Throws an exception (dies) if x,y is outside the grid - this may change (Nick doesn't like it).

$tixgrid->move(dim, from, to, offset)

$tixgrid->moveColumn(from, to, offset)

$tixgrid->moveRow(from, to, offset)

Dim may be row or column. Moves the range of rows (or columns) from position from through to by the distance indicated by offset. For example, $tixgrid->moveRow(2, 4, 1) moves the rows 2,3,4 to rows 3,4,5.

$tixgrid->nearest(x, y)

Screen pos (pixels) to entry (nx,ny) translation.

$tixgrid->selectionAdjust(x1, y1 ?,x2, y2?)

$tixgrid->selectionClear(x1, y1 ?,x2, y2?)

$tixgrid->selectionIncludes(x1, y1 ?,x2, y2?)

$tixgrid->selectionSet(x1, y1 ?,x2, y2?)

$tixgrid->selectionToggle(x1, y1 ?,x2, y2?)

Selection support methods - probably buggy.

x1 (y1) has not to be greater than x2 (y2), but only x2 and y2 can be 'max'.

BUG: selectionIncludes: has no visible effect (as in Tix). Eh???

BUG: selectionClear: only works for 0, 0, max, max (as in Tix). Eh???

When x2, y2 are not given they default to x1, y1, respectively.

$tixgrid->set(x, y?, -itemtype=>type??, -option=>value, ...?)

Creates a new display item at the cell at (x,y). The optional -itemtype parameter gives the type of the display item. An additional list of option-value pairs specify options of the display item. If a display item already exists at this cell, the old item will be deleted automatically.

$tixgrid->size(dim, index?, -option??=>value, ...?)

$tixgrid->sizeColumn(index?, -option??=>value, ...?)

$tixgrid->sizeRow(index?, -option??=>value, ...?)

Queries or sets the size of the row or column given by dim and index. Dim may be row or column. Index may be any non-negative integer that gives the position of a given row (or column). Index can also be the string default; in this case, this method queries or sets the default size of all rows (or columns). When no option-value pair is given, this method returns a list containing the current size setting of the given row (or column). When option-value pairs are given, the corresponding options of the size setting of the given row are changed. -option may be one of the following:

-pad0 => pixels

Specifies the paddings to the left of a column or the top of a row.

-pad1 => pixels

Specifies the paddings to the right of a column or the bottom of a row.

-size => val

Specifies the width of a column or the height of a row. Val may be: auto --- the width of the column is set the widest cell in the column; a valid Tk screen distance unit (see Tk_GetPixels); or a real number following by the word chars (e.g. 3.4chars) that sets the width of the column to the given number of characters.

$tixgrid->sort(dimension, start, end, ?args ...?)

?docu here? (not supported on Win* OSs up to now)

$tixgrid->unset(x, y)

Clears the cell at (x,y) by removing its display item.

$tixgrid->xview

Normal horizontal scrollbar method.

$tixgrid->yview

Normal vertical scrollbar method.
