NAME

6       wxPanel - Functions for wxPanel class
7

DESCRIPTION

9       A  panel is a window on which controls are placed. It is usually placed
10       within a frame. Its main feature over its parent class wxWindow is code
11       for  handling child windows and TAB traversal, which is implemented na‐
12       tively if possible (e.g. in wxGTK) or by wxWidgets itself otherwise.
13
14       Note: Tab traversal is implemented through  an  otherwise  undocumented
15       intermediate  wxControlContainer  class from which any class can derive
16       in addition to the normal wxWindow base class. Please see and  to  find
17       out how this is achieved.
18
19       Note:  if not all characters are being intercepted by your OnKeyDown or
20       OnChar handler, it may be because you  are  using  the  wxTAB_TRAVERSAL
21       style, which grabs some keypresses for use by child controls.
22
23       Remark: By default, a panel has the same colouring as a dialog.

EXPORTS

39       new() -> wxPanel()
40
41              Default constructor.
42
43       new(Parent) -> wxPanel()
44
45              Types:
46
47                 Parent = wxWindow:wxWindow()
48
49       new(Parent, Options :: [Option]) -> wxPanel()
50
51              Types:
52
53                 Parent = wxWindow:wxWindow()
54                 Option =
55                     {winid, integer()} |
56                     {pos, {X :: integer(), Y :: integer()}} |
57                     {size, {W :: integer(), H :: integer()}} |
58                     {style, integer()}
59
60              Constructor.
61
62              See: Create() (not implemented in wx)
63
64       destroy(This :: wxPanel()) -> ok
65
66              Destructor.
67
68              Deletes any child windows before deleting the physical window.
69
70       initDialog(This) -> ok
71
72              Types:
73
74                 This = wxPanel()
75
76              Sends a wxInitDialogEvent, which in turn transfers data  to  the
77              dialog via validators.
78
79              See: wxInitDialogEvent
80
81       setFocusIgnoringChildren(This) -> ok
82
83              Types:
84
85                 This = wxPanel()
86
87              In contrast to wxWindow:setFocus/1 (see above) this will set the
88              focus to the panel even if there are child windows in the panel.
89
90              This is only rarely needed.
