Member Function Documentation

wxAuiPaneInfo& wxAuiPaneInfo::BestSize ( const wxSize size)

BestSize() sets the ideal size for the pane.

The docking manager will attempt to use this size as much as possible when docking or floating the pane.

wxAuiPaneInfo& wxAuiPaneInfo::BestSize ( int  x,
int  y 
)

BestSize() sets the ideal size for the pane.

The docking manager will attempt to use this size as much as possible when docking or floating the pane.

wxAuiPaneInfo& wxAuiPaneInfo::Bottom ( )

Bottom() sets the pane dock position to the bottom side of the frame.

This is the same thing as calling Direction(wxAUI_DOCK_BOTTOM).

wxAuiPaneInfo& wxAuiPaneInfo::BottomDockable ( bool  b = true)

BottomDockable() indicates whether a pane can be docked at the bottom of the frame.

wxAuiPaneInfo& wxAuiPaneInfo::Caption ( const wxString c)

Caption() sets the caption of the pane.

wxAuiPaneInfo& wxAuiPaneInfo::CaptionVisible ( bool  visible = true)

CaptionVisible indicates that a pane caption should be visible.

If false, no pane caption is drawn.

wxAuiPaneInfo& wxAuiPaneInfo::Center ( )

Center() sets the pane dock position to the left side of the frame.

The centre pane is the space in the middle after all border panes (left, top, right, bottom) are subtracted from the layout. This is the same thing as calling Direction(wxAUI_DOCK_CENTRE).

wxAuiPaneInfo& wxAuiPaneInfo::CenterPane ( )

CentrePane() specifies that the pane should adopt the default center pane settings.

Centre panes usually do not have caption bars. This function provides an easy way of preparing a pane to be displayed in the center dock position.

wxAuiPaneInfo& wxAuiPaneInfo::Centre ( )

Center() sets the pane dock position to the left side of the frame.

The centre pane is the space in the middle after all border panes (left, top, right, bottom) are subtracted from the layout. This is the same thing as calling Direction(wxAUI_DOCK_CENTRE).

wxAuiPaneInfo& wxAuiPaneInfo::CentrePane ( )

CentrePane() specifies that the pane should adopt the default center pane settings.

Centre panes usually do not have caption bars. This function provides an easy way of preparing a pane to be displayed in the center dock position.

wxAuiPaneInfo& wxAuiPaneInfo::CloseButton ( bool  visible = true)

CloseButton() indicates that a close button should be drawn for the pane.

Direction() determines the direction of the docked pane.

It is functionally the same as calling Left(), Right(), Top() or Bottom(), except that docking direction may be specified programmatically via the parameter.
