Detailed Description

Class used to handle docking operations.

Library: ilvadvgdt

Instances of the class IlvDockable manage docking operations for the IlvPane object to which they are linked. A pane is said to be docked when it belongs to a dockable container or undocked when it is contained in a special top view. A docked pane is one that is added to a dockable container with the method IlvDockableContainer::addDockingPane.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ IlvDockable()

IlvDockable::IlvDockable ( IlvPane * pane = 0 )

Constructor.

Initializes a new instance of the IlvDockable class connected to pane.

Parameters

pane	The pane to be connected with this instance of `IlvDockable`. If pane is 0, the pane will have to be set with the `IlvDockable::setPane` method or the `IlvDockable::SetDockable` static method later.

See also: setPane, SetDockable

Member Function Documentation

◆ acceptDocking()

virtual IlBoolean IlvDockable::acceptDocking	(	const IlvDockableContainer *	container,
		IlUInt	index
	)		const

virtual

Indicates whether the pane connected to this dockable instance can dock to the specified dockable container.

You can override this method in subclasses to filter docking operations. This methods calls the IlvDockableContainer::acceptDocking method.

Parameters

container	The potential target dockable container.
index	The position where the pane will be docked in container.

Returns: A Boolean value specifying whether docking to container at index is allowed for the pane connected to this instance of IlvDockable.

◆ dock()

virtual void IlvDockable::dock	(	IlvDockableContainer *	container,
		IlUInt	index,
		const IlvRect &	rect
	)

virtual

Docks the pane connected to this dockable instance.

Docks the pane associated with this instance of IlvDockable to the dockable container container, at the position specified by the index parameter. This method does nothing if the pane is already docked.

Parameters

container	The dockable container to which the pane will be docked.
index	The index specifying the position where the pane will be docked in container.
rect	The preferred size of the pane. If the dockable container is oriented vertically, the pane height is that of rect. If it is oriented horizontally, the pane width is that of rect.

◆ GetDockable()

static IlvDockable* IlvDockable::GetDockable ( const IlvPane * pane )

static

Returns the instance of IlvDockable that is connected to the specified pane.

Parameters

pane The pane.

Returns: The instance of IlvDockable connected to pane or 0 if there is none.

See also: SetDockable

◆ getDockingDirection()

IlvDirection IlvDockable::getDockingDirection ( ) const

Returns the preferred docking direction of this dockable instance.

When a preferred docking direction has been set with IlvDockable::setDockingDirection, docking operations are restricted to dockable containers whose orientation matches the specified preferred docking direction. For example, if you want a pane to be docked only to vertical dockable containers, call setDockingDirection(IlvVertical).

See also: setDockingDirection, acceptDocking

◆ getPane()

IlvPane* IlvDockable::getPane ( ) const

Returns the pane connected to this dockable instance.

Returns: The pane associated with this instance of IlvDockable.

See also: setPane

◆ getTitle()

const char* IlvDockable::getTitle ( ) const

Returns the title displayed by the top window when the pane is undocked.

Returns: The title of the top window when the pane is undocked or 0 if no title has been defined. In this case, the title displayed by the top window is the name of the pane.

See also: setTitle, getName

◆ isDocked()

IlBoolean IlvDockable::isDocked ( ) const

Returns the dockable state of this dockable instance.

Returns: IlTrue if the pane is docked, that is, if it belongs to an IlvDockableContainer object.

See also: dock, unDock

◆ SetDockable()

static void IlvDockable::SetDockable	(	IlvPane *	pane,
		IlvDockable *	dockable
	)

static

Connects an instance of IlvDockable to the specified pane.

Connects dockable to pane. If an instance of IlvDockable was already connected to pane, it is removed but not deleted.

Parameters

pane	The pane to which dockable will be connected.
dockable	The instance of `IlvDockable` to connect to pane.

See also: GetDockable

◆ setDockingDirection()

void IlvDockable::setDockingDirection ( IlvDirection direction )

Sets the preferred docking direction of this dockable instance.

Calling this method restricts docking operation for this dockable instance to dockable containers that match the preferred docking direction. The default value is IlvBadPosition, which means that no preferred direction has been set. In this case, the pane can be docked in both IlvHorizontal and IlvVertical dockable containers.

Parameters

direction The preferred docking direction. Valid values are: IlvVertical, IlvHorizontal

See also: getDockingDirection, acceptDocking

◆ setPane()

void IlvDockable::setPane ( IlvPane * pane )

Sets the pane managed by this dockable instance.

Note that this method does not connect pane to the instance of IlvDockable, but simply changes the pane to which it is connected. To connect a pane with an instance of IlvDockable, use the IlvDockable::SetDockable method.

Parameters

pane	The pane to be linked to this instance of `IlvDockable`.

See also: getPane, SetDockable

◆ setTitle()

void IlvDockable::setTitle ( const char * title )

Sets the title displayed by the top window when the pane is undocked.

When the pane is undocked, it is placed in a special top window. Calling this method lets you specify the title of this top window. If a title was already set, it gets deleted.

Parameters

title The title displayed by the top window when the pane is undocked.

See also: getTitle

◆ unDock()

virtual IlvPanedContainer* IlvDockable::unDock	(	const IlvRect &	rect,
		IlBoolean	show = `IlTrue`
	)

virtual

Undocks the pane connected to this dockable instance.

Removes the pane associated with this instance of IlvDockable from its container, and adds it to a new top paned container. The new container is resized to rect. This method does nothing if the pane is not docked.

Parameters

rect	The size and position of the pane in global screen coordinates when undocked.
show	Not documented.
