You can subclass this and give instance in wxPropertyGridManager::AddPage. It inherits from wxEvtHandler and can be used to process events specific to this page (id of events will still be same as manager's). If you don't want to use it to process all events of the page, you need to return @false in the derived wxPropertyGridPage::IsHandlingAllEvents. Please note that wxPropertyGridPage lacks many non-const property manipulation functions found in wxPropertyGridManager. Please use parent manager (m_manager member variable) when needed. Please note that most member functions are inherited and as such not documented on this page. This means you will probably also want to read wxPropertyGridInterface class reference. @section propgridpage_event_handling Event Handling wxPropertyGridPage receives events emitted by its wxPropertyGridManager, but only those events that are specific to that page. If wxPropertyGridPage:: IsHandlingAllEvents returns false, then unhandled events are sent to the manager's parent, as usual. See @ref propgrid_event_handling "wxPropertyGrid Event Handling" for more information. @library{wxpropgrid} @category{propgrid} */ class WXDLLIMPEXP_PROPGRID wxPropertyGridPage : public wxEvtHandler, public wxPropertyGridInterface { friend class wxPropertyGridManager; public: wxPropertyGridPage(); virtual ~wxPropertyGridPage(); /** Deletes all properties on page. */ virtual void Clear(); /** Reduces column sizes to minimum possible that contents are still visibly (naturally some margin space will be applied as well). @return Returns minimum size for the page to still display everything. @remarks This function only works properly if size of containing grid was already fairly large.

However, only some of them affect properties on all pages (eg. GetPropertyByName() and ExpandAll()), while some (eg. Append()) only apply to the currently selected page. To operate explicitly on properties on specific page, use wxPropertyGridManager::GetPage() to obtain pointer to page's wxPropertyGridPage object. Visual methods, such as SetCellBackgroundColour() are only available in wxPropertyGrid. Use wxPropertyGridManager::GetGrid() to obtain pointer to it. Non-virtual iterators will not work in wxPropertyGridManager. Instead, you must acquire the internal grid (GetGrid()) or wxPropertyGridPage object (GetPage()). wxPropertyGridManager constructor has exact same format as wxPropertyGrid constructor, and basicly accepts same extra window style flags (albeit also has some extra ones). Here's some example code for creating and populating a wxPropertyGridManager: @code wxPropertyGridManager* pgMan = new wxPropertyGridManager(this, PGID, wxDefaultPosition, wxDefaultSize, // These and other similar styles are automatically // passed to the embedded wxPropertyGrid. wxPG_BOLD_MODIFIED|wxPG_SPLITTER_AUTO_CENTER| // Include toolbar. wxPG_TOOLBAR | // Include description box. wxPG_DESCRIPTION | // Include compactor. wxPG_COMPACTOR | // Plus defaults. wxPGMAN_DEFAULT_STYLE ); wxPropertyGridPage* page; page = pgMan->AddPage("First Page"); page->Append( new wxPropertyCategory("Category A1") ); page->Append( new wxIntProperty("Number",wxPG_LABEL,1) ); page->Append( new wxColourProperty("Colour",wxPG_LABEL,*wxWHITE) ); page = pgMan->AddPage("Second Page"); page->Append( "Text",wxPG_LABEL,"(no text)" ); page->Append( new wxFontProperty("Font",wxPG_LABEL) ); @endcode @section propgridmanager_window_styles_ Window Styles See @ref propgrid_window_styles. @section propgridmanager_event_handling Event Handling See @ref propgrid_event_handling "wxPropertyGrid Event Handling" for more information. @library{wxpropgrid} @category{propgrid} */ class wxPropertyGridManager : public wxPanel, public wxPropertyGridInterface { public: /** Creates new property page.
