@subsection Overview of the @code{GSHbox} Class
|
||||
|
||||
@code{GSHbox} is a subclass of @code{GSTable} meant to provide an
|
||||
extremely simplified API for managing rows of views. The only real
|
||||
difference between a @code{GSHbox} and a @code{GSTable} with 1 row is
|
||||
that @code{GSHbox} has a much simpler, easier and less powerful API.
|
||||
This difference makes programming with @code{GSHbox} (and @code{GSVbox})
|
||||
much faster than dealing directly with the underlying @code{GSTable}.
|
||||
|
||||
If you use @code{GSHbox}, it is to take advantage of the simplified API.
|
||||
You shouldn't use @code{GSTable} methods with @code{GSHbox} (exception:
|
||||
methods explicitly listed in this documentation), because @code{GSHbox}
|
||||
is supposed to manage those methods for you. If you need the power of
|
||||
the full @code{GSTable} API, you should simply be using @code{GSTable}
|
||||
and not @code{GSHbox}.
|
||||
|
||||
A @code{GSHbox} is an invisible view (a logical device) which can
|
||||
contain some views. The @code{GSHbox} controls the position and sizes
|
||||
of these views so that they are lined up in a row.
|
||||
|
||||
To initialize a @code{GSHbox}, you should always use @code{-init}
|
||||
method. Don't use @code{GSTable} methods. The correct way to start
|
||||
using a new @code{GSHbox} is simply:
|
||||
|
||||
@smallexample
|
||||
hbox = [GSHbox new];
|
||||
@end smallexample
|
||||
|
||||
(well, of course, autoreleasing it if necessary). You add a view to a
|
||||
@code{GSHbox} using the method @code{-addView:} and its variants. The
|
||||
views you add to a @code{GSHbox} are placed by the @code{GSHbox} in its
|
||||
subview hierarchy, and moved (and/or resized in the vertical direction)
|
||||
so that they are positioned one after the other, from left to right, in
|
||||
a row. Before adding views to a box, you should resize them to the
|
||||
least comfortable size you want them to have. The @code{GSHbox}
|
||||
considers this size as the minimum size your view should ever have, and
|
||||
never resizes your view below this size.
|
||||
|
||||
The initial size of the @code{GSHbox} is zero; each time you add a view
|
||||
in the @code{GSHbox}, the @code{GSHbox} resizes itself to fit the new
|
||||
contents. Usually, you simply add objects to the @code{GSHbox}, and let
|
||||
it compute its size (this is the minimum size); you may get this
|
||||
resulting size by
|
||||
@smallexample
|
||||
size = [yourHBox size];
|
||||
@end smallexample
|
||||
for example, if the @code{GSHbox} is to be used as the content view of a window,
|
||||
you may create the window exactly with this size.
|
||||
|
||||
You should never force a @code{GSHbox} in a size different from the one
|
||||
it has automatically computed. It sounds quite pointless anyway. The
|
||||
only correct (and meaningful) way to resize a @code{GSHbox} is through
|
||||
@code{-resizeWithOldSuperviewSize:} messages (in the view hierarchy).
|
||||
In other words, after you place your box in the view hierarchy, then you
|
||||
may resize the superview and (if the superview has autoresizing of
|
||||
subviews enabled) your box is resized automatically accordingly.
|
||||
|
||||
By default, there is no space between the added views. By using the method
|
||||
@code{-addView:withMinXMargin:} you may tell the @code{GSHbox} to insert
|
||||
some space (a @dfn{margin}) between the view you are adding and the
|
||||
previous one (the one at its left).
|
||||
|
||||
@c Don't talk about setDefaultMinXMargin: here.
|
||||
|
||||
If what you want is space around the @code{GSHbox}, and not between
|
||||
views in the @code{GSHbox}, you don't want a margin but a @dfn{border};
|
||||
you should then use @code{-setBorder:}, which will add an equal amount
|
||||
of space on all the sides of the box. You can also set a different
|
||||
border on each side (see @code{-setMinXBorder:} and similar methods).
|
||||
|
||||
A useful feature of @code{GSHbox} is that it supports @dfn{separators}.
|
||||
This facility is not directly available in @code{GSTable} (to add
|
||||
separators to a @code{GSTable} you need to create and handle them
|
||||
yourself). A @code{GSHbox} separator is a vertical groove line, used to
|
||||
mark the separation between different elements of a box. To add a
|
||||
separator, simply invoke the method @code{-addSeparator}. The separator
|
||||
is put at the right of the last added view.
|
||||
|
||||
To use @code{GSHbox} proficiently, it is crucial to set correctly the
|
||||
autoresizing mask of each view before adding it to the @code{GSHbox}.
|
||||
|
||||
The @code{GSHbox} treats each view and its margins as a whole (see the
|
||||
@code{GSTable} class description for more information).
|
||||
|
||||
When the @code{GSHbox} is resized in the vertical direction (as a
|
||||
consequence of user intervertion, for example), what happens is:
|
||||
@itemize @bullet
|
||||
@item if the new height is less than the minimum height of the @code{GSHbox}
|
||||
(computed as the maximum of the minimum height of the added views), it
|
||||
simply resizes all the added views to this minimum height; part of them
|
||||
are clipped then.
|
||||
@item if the new height is greater than the @code{GSHbox}'s minimum height,
|
||||
the @code{GSHbox} resizes all the added views to the new height. This
|
||||
is done through the standard superview-subview resizing mechanism, so
|
||||
that, by setting the @code{autoresizingMask} of each view that you add,
|
||||
you are able to control exactly how the resizing effects each view and
|
||||
its margins.
|
||||
@end itemize
|
||||
|
||||
When the @code{GSHbox} is resized in the horizontal direction, its
|
||||
behaviour is as follows:
|
||||
@itemize @bullet
|
||||
@item If the new width is less than
|
||||
the minimum width, all the added views are sized to minimum width; part
|
||||
of them is clipped then.
|
||||
@item If the new width is greater than
|
||||
the minimum width, some of the views are resized. You may decide which
|
||||
views you want to be resized and which not; to disable resizing of a
|
||||
certain view in the horizontal direction, you should specify a @code{NO}
|
||||
value to the option @code{enablingXResizing} when you add the view to
|
||||
the box. Views with X Resizing Not Enabled are always kept in their
|
||||
minimum width (the original one), and never resized. If nothing is
|
||||
specified, a default of @code{YES} for @code{enablingXResizing} is
|
||||
understood. So, when the new width is greater than the minimum width,
|
||||
the excess width is equally divided between the view with X Resizing
|
||||
Enabled. The actual resizing is done through the usual
|
||||
superview-subview resizing mechanism, so that again you may influence
|
||||
the way the resizing affects each view by setting the autoresizing mask
|
||||
of each view.

@subsubsection Adding a View
|
||||
|
||||
@noindent
|
||||
-(void) @b{addView:} (NSView *)@t{aView}
|
||||
|
||||
Add a view to the box, enabling X resizing, and with the default
|
||||
MinXMargin.
|

@ @ @ @ @b{enablingXResizing:} (BOOL)@t{aFlag}@*
|
||||
@ @ @ @ @b{withMinXMargin:} (float)@t{aMargin}
|
||||
|
||||
Add a view to the box, enabling X Resizing only if @code{flag} is
|
||||
@code{YES}, and a MinXMargin @code{aMargin}. If @code{aFlag} is
|
||||
@code{YES} the [view and its margins] should be resized in the
|
||||
horizontal direction when the GSHbox is resized in the horizontal
|
||||
direction. If @code{aFlag} is @code{NO} the view is never X-resized and
|
||||
always left in its original width. The default is @code{YES}.
|
||||
|
||||
The min X margin is used to separate the view from the preceding one.
|
||||
The first view added to the box has no min X margin; if you try setting
|
||||
one for it, it is ignored (zero is used instead).
|
||||
|
||||
When views are added to the @code{GSHbox}, it might happen that some of
|
||||
the added views have a greater height than others. When this happens,
|
||||
the @code{GSHbox} resizes all the views to the highest height. As
|
||||
usual, each view is resized with its margins; the effect of the resizing
|
||||
on each view is determined by the autoresizing mask of the view. The
|
||||
classical options are
|
||||
@table @code
|
||||
@item (NSViewMinYMargin | NSViewMaxYMargin)
|
||||
Center the view vertically
|
||||
@item NSViewMinYMargin
|
||||
Flush the view up (down if the @code{GSHbox} is flipped)
|
||||
@item NSViewMaxYMargin
|
||||
Flush the view down (up if the @code{GSHbox} is flipped)
|
||||
@item NSViewHeightSizable
|
||||
Expand the view to the whole height
|
||||
@end table
|
||||
(you may need to @code{OR} these masks with the mask you use in the
|
||||
horizontal direction, if you use any).

@subsection Overview of the @code{GSTable} Class
|
||||
|
||||
A @code{GSTable} object is used to control the disposition (position and
|
||||
size) of a group of @code{NSView}s. The @code{GSTable} object offers
|
||||
two main facilities to the programmer:
|
||||
@itemize @bullet
|
||||
@item
|
||||
with a @code{GSTable} object, you do not need to specify the exact
|
||||
position and size of each view. You only specify the logical position,
|
||||
relative to the other views in the table. The actual frame of each view
|
||||
is then computed by the @code{GSTable} at run time.
|
||||
@item
|
||||
when the @code{GSTable} is resized (for example, because the user has
|
||||
resized the window in which the @code{GSTable} is), the @code{GSTable}
|
||||
takes care of moving and resizing all its views automatically. This is
|
||||
done in much a advanced and customizable way than in the usual standard
|
||||
@code{NSView}'s autoresizing mechanism.
|
||||
@end itemize
|
||||
|
||||
You create a @code{GSTable} instance with a certain number of rows and
|
||||
columns. The @code{GSTable} object itself is invisible; it is only a
|
||||
logical device used to specify the subview position. Then, you place
|
||||
one by one the views you want to control in the @code{GSTable}, by
|
||||
calling a method of the family @code{-putView:atRow:column:}. Before
|
||||
placing a view in the table, you should resize it to the minimum
|
||||
comfortable size you want it to have. The table then automatically
|
||||
places the views, organizing them in well-ordered columns and rows.
|
||||
|
||||
The initial size of the @code{GSTable} is zero; each time you put a view
|
||||
in the @code{GSTable}, the @code{GSTable} recomputes sizes and as a
|
||||
result resizes itself so that it exactly fits the views it contains.
|
||||
You should not force a @code{GSTable} in a size different from the one
|
||||
it has automatically computed. The only acceptable, reasonable and
|
||||
meaningful way of resizing a @code{GSTable} is through the appropriate
|
||||
@code{-resizeWithOldSuperviewSize:} message when the @code{GSTable} is
|
||||
in the view hierarchy.
|
||||
|
||||
When you add a view, you may specify some particular margins to be used
|
||||
for that view. If nothing is specified, the view is added to the table
|
||||
with the margins of 0. You should think of each view and its margins as
|
||||
a whole. A position in the @code{GSTable} is free or filled with a view
|
||||
and its margins.
|
||||
|
||||
The @code{GSTable} itself knows what is the minimum size it needs to
|
||||
have in order to comfortably display the views it contains. You may get
|
||||
this size by calling the method @code{-minimumSize}. When first filled,
|
||||
the table has this minimum size. If in any moment you want the table to
|
||||
restore itself to this size, you should invoke the method
|
||||
@code{-sizeToFit}.
|
||||
|
||||
When the @code{GSTable} receives a @code{-resizeWithOldSuperviewSize:}
|
||||
message, it automatically rearranges the views it contains:
|
||||
@itemize @bullet
|
||||
@item
|
||||
If the new width or height is equal or less than the table's minimum
|
||||
width or height, the @code{GSTable} simply arranges its views in the
|
||||
initial position. In other words, the @code{GSTable} refuse to resize
|
||||
below its minimum width or height. If you do that, part of the
|
||||
@code{GSTable} is clipped.
|
||||
@item
|
||||
If the new width or height is bigger than the table's minimum width or
|
||||
height, the space in excess is equally distributed between the columns
|
||||
or rows which have X (or Y) resizing enabled. When a column or a row is
|
||||
resized, each view in the column or row is resized together with its
|
||||
margins. By setting the autoresizingMask of each view, you may decide
|
||||
how the resizing operation will act on that particular view and its
|
||||
margins. For example, setting the autoresizingMask to
|
||||
@code{NSViewWidthSizable | NSViewHeightSizable} will always leave the
|
||||
margins fixed to their initial dimensions, and expand/reduce only the
|
||||
view, in all directions. Setting the autoresizingMask to

@subsection Advanced Description of @code{GSTable}
|
||||
|
||||
We call any view which is added to the @code{GSTable} a @dfn{prisoner}.
|
||||
The purpose of the @code{GSTable} is to effectively manage its
|
||||
prisoners. To do so, the @code{GSTable} creates a special view, called
|
||||
a @dfn{jail}, for each prisoner. The jails are subviews of the
|
||||
@code{GSTable}; each prisoner, when added to the @code{GSTable}, is made
|
||||
a subview of its jail. The @code{GSTable} always moves and resizes
|
||||
directly the jails. The moving is automatically transmitted to the
|
||||
prisoners, which are subviews of the jails; the resizing is transmitted
|
||||
through the usual autoresizing machinery, because the jails always have
|
||||
autoresizing of subviews turned on. This works because if a prisoner
|
||||
sends to its superview a @code{-frame} message, the frame of the jail
|
||||
(and @emph{not} the frame of the @code{GSTable}) is returned, so that
|
||||
each prisoner will autoresize itself in its jail frame. Moreover, any
|
||||
prisoner, being a subview of its jail, is clipped in its jail frame. If
|
||||
a prisoner draws something out of its jail frame, the output is
|
||||
discarded by the usual subview/view clipping machinery. This prevents
|
||||
the prisoners from disturbing each other. The dimension of the jail is
|
||||
the dimension of the prisoner plus its margins. Since the
|
||||
@code{GSTable} manages directly the jails, each prisoner is managed
|
||||
together with its margins. When the jail is resized, the prisoner
|
||||
receives a @code{-resizeWithOldSuperviewSize:}, which makes it resize
|
||||
itself and its margins in the new jail size, according to its
|
||||
autoresizingMask.

@noindent
|
||||
-(void) @b{putView:} (NSView *)@t{aView}@*
|
||||
@ @ @ @ @b{atRow:} (int)@t{row}@*
|
||||
@ @ @ @ @b{column:} (int)@t{column}
|
||||
|
||||
Put @code{aView} in the @code{GSTable}, in the specified @code{row} and
|
||||
@code{column}. Zero (0) margins are used. If the column @code{column}
|
||||
(or the row @code{row}) is not enough big to fully display @code{aView}
|
||||
and its margins, the column (or the row) is resized (regardless of the

fact that X or Y Resizing is Enabled or not). It is understood that
|
||||
this will affect each view (and its margins) in the column (or row)
|
||||
according to the autoresizing mask of each view.
