Detailed Description

The gui namespace contains useful classes for easy creation of a graphical user interface.

Enumeration Type Documentation

◆ ECONTEXT_MENU_CLOSE

enum jpp::gui::ECONTEXT_MENU_CLOSE

Close behavior. Default is ECMC_REMOVE

Enumerator
ECMC_IGNORE	do nothing - menu stays open
ECMC_REMOVE	remove the gui element
ECMC_HIDE	call setVisible(false)

◆ ECURSOR_PLATFORM_BEHAVIOR

enum jpp::gui::ECURSOR_PLATFORM_BEHAVIOR

platform specific behavior flags for the cursor

Enumerator

ECPB_NONE

default - no platform specific behavior

ECPB_X11_CACHE_UPDATES

On X11 try caching cursor updates as XQueryPointer calls can be expensive.

Update cursor positions only when the jimcpp timer has been updated or the timer is stopped. This means you usually get one cursor update per device->run() which will be fine in most cases. See this forum-thread for a more detailed explanation: http://jimcpp.sourceforge.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=45525

◆ EFOCUS_FLAG

enum jpp::gui::EFOCUS_FLAG

Bitflags for defining the the focus behavior of the gui.

Enumerator
EFF_SET_ON_LMOUSE_DOWN	When set the focus changes when the left mouse-button got clicked while over an element.
EFF_SET_ON_RMOUSE_DOWN	When set the focus changes when the right mouse-button got clicked while over an element Note that elements usually don't care about right-click and that won't change with this flag This is mostly to allow taking away focus from elements with right-mouse additionally.
EFF_SET_ON_MOUSE_OVER	When set the focus changes when the mouse-cursor is over an element.
EFF_SET_ON_TAB	When set the focus can be changed with TAB-key combinations.
EFF_CAN_FOCUS_DISABLED	When set it's possible to set the focus to disabled elements.

◆ EGUI_ALIGNMENT

enum jpp::gui::EGUI_ALIGNMENT

Enumerator

EGUIA_SCALE	Stretched to fit parent.

◆ EGUI_BUTTON_IMAGE_STATE

enum jpp::gui::EGUI_BUTTON_IMAGE_STATE

State of buttons used for drawing texture images. Note that only a single state is active at a time Also when no image is defined for a state it will use images from another state and if that state is not set from the replacement for that,etc. So in many cases setting EGBIS_IMAGE_UP and EGBIS_IMAGE_DOWN is sufficient.
