Detailed Description

A container with a title and standard GUI elements.

Like a Container, from which Panel derives, a panel organizes its contents using layout managers.

The panel provides standard user-interface elements, such as a title bar, top and bottom tool/menu bars, and footer buttons, and a panel may be configured to be resizable and collapsible.

Typically, panels will be added directly into a layout, and are components to organize your user interface. You may also add a panel to a plain container widget, but then you should set a size for the panel (using WWidget::resize()), in pixels.

When a panel is added to WApplication::root(), as single widget, it acts like a plain Container, and thus none of the panel specific features (tool bars, buttons, etc...) are available. If you want to have a top-level Panel, you need thus to do something like this:

// create the root container
Wt::Ext::Container *rootContainer = new Wt::Ext::Container(app->root());
// create the root panel and fit it inside the container
Wt::Ext::Panel *rootPanel = new Wt::Ext::Panel();
rootContainer->setLayout(new Wt::WFitLayout());
rootContainer->layout()->addWidget(rootPanel);

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

Wt::Ext::Panel::Panel ( WContainerWidget parent = 0)

Create a new panel.

When a parent is specified, or the panel is after construction added to a WContainerWidget, the panel should be given an explicit size in pixels, using WWidget::resize().

Member Function Documentation

void Wt::Ext::Panel::addFooterButton ( Button button)

Add a button to the footer of the panel.

The button is displayed below the contents, but above a bottom tool bar if it is set.

See also
removeFooterButton(Button *), Dialog::addButton(Button *)
bool Wt::Ext::Panel::animate ( ) const

Return if using animations for expand/collapse.

See also
setAnimate(bool)
bool Wt::Ext::Panel::autoScrollBars ( ) const

Return if showing scroll bars when needed.

See also
setAutoScrollBars(bool)
bool Wt::Ext::Panel::border ( ) const

Get the border setting.

See also
setBorder(bool)
ToolBar* Wt::Ext::Panel::bottomToolBar ( ) const

Return the top tool bar.

See also
setBottomToolBar(ToolBar *), topToolBar()
void Wt::Ext::Panel::collapse ( )

Collapse the panel.

See also
setCollapsible(bool on)
JSignal& Wt::Ext::Panel::collapsed ( )

Signal emitted when the panel is collapsed.

See also
setCollapsible()
void Wt::Ext::Panel::expand ( )

Expand the panel.

See also
setCollapsible(bool on)
JSignal& Wt::Ext::Panel::expanded ( )

Signal emitted when the panel is expanded.

See also
setCollapsible()
const std::vector<Button *>& Wt::Ext::Panel::footerButtons ( ) const

Retrn the list of footer buttons.

See also
addFooterButton(Button *), removeFooterButton(Button *)
bool Wt::Ext::Panel::isCollapsed ( ) const

Return if the panel is collapsed.

See also
setCollapsed(bool)
collapsed() and expanded() signals
bool Wt::Ext::Panel::isCollapsible ( ) const

Return if the user may collapse/expand the panel.

See also
setCollapsible()
bool Wt::Ext::Panel::isResizable ( ) const

Return if the user may resize the panel.

See also
setResizable()
void Wt::Ext::Panel::refresh ( )
virtual

Refresh the widget.

The refresh method is invoked when the locale is changed using WApplication::setLocale() or when the user hit the refresh button.

The widget must actualize its contents in response.

Note
This does *not* rerender the widget! Calling refresh() usually does not have any effect (unless you've reimplemented refresh() to attach to it an effect).

Reimplemented from Wt::WWebWidget.

Reimplemented in Wt::Ext::TableView, Wt::Ext::MessageBox, and Wt::Ext::TabWidget.

void Wt::Ext::Panel::removeFooterButton ( Button button)

Remove a button from the footer of the panel.

Transfers ownership back, and so you must delete the button if you wish to destroy it.

See also
addFooterButton(Button *), Dialog::removeButton(Button *)
void Wt::Ext::Panel::setAnimate ( bool  on)

Set to use animations for the expand/collapse operation.

By default, the expand/collapse operation of a panel is not animated. This setting is ignored if the panel is not collapsible.

See also
animate(), setCollapsible(bool)
void Wt::Ext::Panel::setAutoScrollBars ( bool  on)

Option to show scroll bars when needed.

By default, scrollbars are disabled.

void Wt::Ext::Panel::setBorder ( bool  show)

Change the border around the panel.

By default, a panel has a small border around it. Set show false to disable the border.

See also
border()
void Wt::Ext::Panel::setBottomToolBar ( ToolBar bottomBar)

Set a tool bar at the bottom of the panel.

Note: you can only set a tool bar before the panel is rendered.

See also
bottomToolBar(), setTopToolBar(ToolBar *)
void Wt::Ext::Panel::setCollapsed ( bool  on)

Set the panel expanded or callapsed.

When on is true, the panel is collapsed, minimizing screen real estate.

Initially, a panel is expanded.

See also
setCollapsible(bool on)
void Wt::Ext::Panel::setCollapsible ( bool  on)

Allow the user to collapse/expand the panel.

When on is true, a button is added to the title bar, which may be used to collapse/expand the panel.

By default, a panel is not collapsible.

See also
isCollapsed(), isCollapsible(), setCollapsed(bool)
void Wt::Ext::Panel::setResizable ( bool  on)

Allow the user to resize the panel.

If true, then, depending on the layout the panel is in, a resize handle will be displayed at one of the panel borders.

By default, a panel may not be resized by the user.

void Wt::Ext::Panel::setTitle ( const WString title)

Set a title.

The panel title is set in the title bar. This method also makes the title bar visible by calling setTitleBar(true).

When the panel is added to a TabWidget, the title serves as the tab label.

See also
title(), setTitleBar(bool)
void Wt::Ext::Panel::setTitleBar ( bool  enable)

Show or hide a title bar for the panel.

The title bar appears at the top of the panel, above the contents and the top tool bar (if there is one). By default, the title bar is not shown unless a title is set.

See also
setTitle(const WString&)
void Wt::Ext::Panel::setTopToolBar ( ToolBar toolBar)

Set a tool bar at the top of the panel.

Note: you can only set a tool bar before the panel is rendered.

See also
topToolBar(), setBottomToolBar(ToolBar *)
const WString& Wt::Ext::Panel::title ( ) const

Get the title.

See also
setTitle(const WString&)
bool Wt::Ext::Panel::titleBar ( ) const

Get the title bar.

See also
setTitleBar(bool)
ToolBar* Wt::Ext::Panel::topToolBar ( ) const

Return the top tool bar.

See also
setTopToolBar(ToolBar *), bottomToolBar()
