|
wxWizard is the central class for implementing `wizard-like' dialogs. These
|
|
|
|
dialogs are mostly familiar to Windows users and are nothing else but a
|
|
|
|
sequence of `pages' each of them displayed inside a dialog which has the
|
2001-08-17 05:38:53 -04:00
|
|
|
buttons to pass to the next (and previous) pages.
|
2000-07-15 15:51:35 -04:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The wizards are typically used to decompose a complex dialog into several
|
|
|
|
simple steps and are mainly useful to the novice users, hence it is important
|
|
|
|
to keep them as simple as possible.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To show a wizard dialog, you must first create an object of wxWizard class
|
2002-08-27 05:17:36 -04:00
|
|
|
using either the non default constructor or a default one followed by call to
|
|
|
|
\helpref{Create}{wxwizardcreate} function. Then you should add all pages you
|
|
|
|
want the wizard to show and call \helpref{RunWizard}{wxwizardrunwizard}.
|
2000-07-15 15:51:35 -04:00
|
|
|
Finally, don't forget to call {\tt wizard->Destroy()}.

|

|

|
|
|
To process input from a wizard dialog, use these event handler macros to
|
|
|
|
direct input to member functions that take a
|
|
|
|
\helpref{wxWizardEvent}{wxwizardevent} argument. For some events,
|
|
|
|
\helpref{Veto()}{wxnotifyeventveto} can be called to prevent the event from
|
|
|
|
happening.

\wxheading{Extended styles}
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Use the \helpref{wxWindow::SetExtraStyle}{wxwindowsetextrastyle} function to set the following
|
|
|
|
style. You will need to use two-step construction (use the default constructor, call {\bf SetExtraStyle}, then call {\bf Create}).
|

|
|

Default constructor. Use this if you wish to derive from wxWizard and then call
|
|
|
|
\helpref{Create}{wxwizardcreate}, for example if you wish to set an extra style
|
|
|
|
with \helpref{wxWindow::SetExtraStyle}{wxwindowsetextrastyle} between the two
|
|
|
|
calls.

|
|
|
Constructor which really creates the wizard -- if you use this constructor, you

shouldn't call \helpref{Create}{wxwizardcreate}.

Notice that unlike almost all other wxWindows classes, there is no {\it size}

parameter in wxWizard constructor because the wizard will have a predefined

default size by default. If you want to change this, you should use the
|
2003-07-20 16:48:52 -04:00
|
|
|
\helpref{GetPageAreaSizer}{wxwizardgetpageareasizer} function.

Sets the page size to be big enough for all the pages accessible via the
|
|
|
|
given {\it firstPage}, i.e. this page, its next page and so on.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This method may be called more than once and it will only change the page size
|
|
|
|
if the size required by the new page is bigger than the previously set one.
|
|
|
|
This is useful if the decision about which pages to show is taken during the
|
|
|
|
run-time as in this case, the wizard won't be able to get to all pages starting
|
|
|
|
from a single one and you should call {\it Fit} separately for the others.

|
|
|
|
|
\constfunc{virtual wxSizer*}{GetPageAreaSizer}{\void}
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Returns pointer to page area sizer. Wizard is laid out using sizers and
|
|
|
|
page area sizer is the place holder for the pages. All pages are resized before
|
|
|
|
being shown to match the wizard page area.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Page area sizer has minimal size that is maximum of several values. First,
|
|
|
|
all pages (or other objects) added to the sizer. Second, all pages reachable
|
|
|
|
by repeatedly applying
|
|
|
|
\helpref{wxWizardPage::GetNext}{wxwizardpagegetnext} to
|
|
|
|
any page inserted into the sizer. Third,
|
|
|
|
minimal size specified using \helpref{SetPageSize}{wxwizardsetpagesize} and
|
|
|
|
\helpref{FitToPage}{wxwizardfittopage}. Fourth, the total wizard height may
|
|
|
|
be increased to accomodate the bitmap height. Fifth and finally, wizards are
|
|
|
|
never smaller some built-in minimal size to avoid too small wizards.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Caller can use \helpref{wxSizer::SetMinSize}{wxsizersetminsize} to enlarge it
|
|
|
|
beyond minimal size. If {\tt wxRESIZE\_BORDER} was passed to constructor, user
|
|
|
|
can resize wizard and consequently page area (but not make it smaller than the
|
|
|
|
minimal size).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
It is recommended to add first page to page area sizer. For simple wizards,
|
|
|
|
this will enlarge the wizard to fit biggest page. For non-linear wizards,
|
|
|
|
first page of every separate chain should be added. Caller-specified size
|
|
|
|
can be accomplished using \helpref{wxSizer::SetMinSize}{wxsizersetminsize}.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Adding pages to page area sizer affects default border width around page
|
|
|
|
area that can be altered with \helpref{SetBorder}{wxwizardsetborder}.

2000-07-15 15:51:35 -04:00
|
|
|
Sets the minimal size to be made available for the wizard pages. The wizard
|
|
|
|
will take into account the size of the bitmap (if any) itself. Also, the
|
|
|
|
wizard will never be smaller than the default size.

|
|
|
The recommended way to use this function is to layout all wizard pages using
|
|
|
|
the sizers (even though the wizard is not resizeable) and then use
|
|
|
|
\helpref{wxSizer::CalcMin}{wxsizercalcmin} in a loop to calculate the maximum
|
|
|
|
of minimal sizes of the pages and pass it to SetPageSize().

\func{void}{SetBorder}{\param{int }{border}}

Sets width of border around page area. Default is zero. For backward
|
|
|
|
compatibility, if there are no pages in
|
|
|
|
\helpref{GetPageAreaSizer}{wxwizardgetpageareasizer}, default is $5$ pixels.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If there is five point border around all controls in a page and border around
|
|
|
|
page area is left zero, five point white space along all dialog borders
|
|
|
|
will be added to control border to space page controls ten points from dialog
|
|
|
|
border and non-page controls.
