Detailed Description

Container widget.

Parent class for widgets that contain child widgets.

Signals:

  • Inherited signals from Widget

Member Function Documentation

◆ add()

virtual void tgui::Container::add ( const Widget::Ptr & widgetPtr,
const String & widgetName = "" )
virtual

Adds a widget to the container.

Parameters
widgetPtrPointer to the widget you would like to add
widgetNameYou can give the widget a unique name to retrieve it from the container later
Warning
Widgets should be named as if they are C++ variables, i.e. names must not include any whitespace, or most symbols (e.g.: +, -, *, /, ., &), and should not start with a number. If you do not follow these rules, layout expressions may give unexpected results. Alphanumeric characters and underscores are safe to use, and widgets are permitted to have no name.

Reimplemented in tgui::BoxLayout, tgui::BoxLayoutRatios, and tgui::ScrollablePanel.

◆ askToolTip()

TGUI_NODISCARD Widget::Ptr tgui::Container::askToolTip ( Vector2f mousePos)
overridevirtual

Reimplemented from tgui::Widget.

◆ canHandleKeyPress()

bool tgui::Container::canHandleKeyPress ( const Event::KeyEvent & event)
overridevirtual

Called by the parent of the widget to check if keyPressed would process the event.

Parameters
eventKey event that took place
Returns
True if the event would be handled by the widget, false if the key event doesn't affect the widget
Since
TGUI 1.1

Reimplemented from tgui::Widget.

Reimplemented in tgui::FileDialog.

◆ draw()

void tgui::Container::draw ( BackendRenderTarget & target,
RenderStates states ) const
overrideprotectedvirtual

Draw the child widgets to a render target.

Parameters
targetRender target to draw to
statesCurrent render states

Implements tgui::Widget.

Reimplemented in tgui::RootContainer, tgui::Group, tgui::Panel, and tgui::ScrollablePanel.

◆ focusNextWidget()

bool tgui::Container::focusNextWidget ( bool recursive = true)

Focuses the next widget in this container.

Parameters
recursiveIf the focused widget is a container, should the next widget inside it be focused instead of focusing the sibling of the container?
Returns
Whether a new widget was focused

◆ focusPreviousWidget()

bool tgui::Container::focusPreviousWidget ( bool recursive = true)

Focuses the previous widget in this container.

Parameters
recursiveIf the focused widget is a container, should the previous widget inside it be focused instead of focusing the sibling of the container?
Returns
Whether a new widget was focused

◆ get() [1/2]

TGUI_NODISCARD Widget::Ptr tgui::Container::get ( const String & widgetName) const

Returns a pointer to a widget that was added earlier.

Parameters
widgetNameThe name that was given to the widget when it was added to the container

The container will first search for widgets that are direct children of it, but when none of the child widgets match the given name, a recursive search will be performed.

Returns
Pointer to the earlier added widget
Warning
This function will return nullptr when an unknown widget name was passed

◆ get() [2/2]

template<class WidgetType >
TGUI_NODISCARD WidgetType::Ptr tgui::Container::get ( const String & widgetName) const
inline

Returns a pointer to a widget that was added earlier.

Parameters
widgetNameThe name that was given to the widget when it was added to the container
Returns
Pointer to the earlier added widget. The pointer will already be casted to the desired type

The container will first search for widgets that are direct children of it, but when none of the child widgets match the given name, a recursive search will be performed.

Warning
This function will return nullptr when an unknown widget name was passed

◆ getChildWidgetsOffset()

virtual TGUI_NODISCARD Vector2f tgui::Container::getChildWidgetsOffset ( ) const
inlinevirtual

Returns the distance between the position of the container and a widget that would be drawn inside this container on relative position (0,0)

Returns
Offset of the widgets in the container

Reimplemented in tgui::ChildWindow, tgui::Group, and tgui::Panel.

◆ getFocusedChild()

TGUI_NODISCARD Widget::Ptr tgui::Container::getFocusedChild ( ) const

Returns the child widget that is focused inside this container.

Returns
Focused child widget or nullptr if none of the widgets are currently focused

If the focused widget is a container then a pointer to that container is returned. If you want to know which widget is focused inside that container (recursively) then you should use the getFocusedLeaf() function.

◆ getFocusedLeaf()

TGUI_NODISCARD Widget::Ptr tgui::Container::getFocusedLeaf ( ) const

Returns the leaf child widget that is focused inside this container.

Returns
Focused leaf child widget or nullptr if none of the widgets are currently focused

If the focused widget is a container then the getFocusedLeaf() is recursively called on that container. If you want to limit the search to only direct children of this container then you should use the getFocusedChild() function.

◆ getInnerSize()

virtual TGUI_NODISCARD Vector2f tgui::Container::getInnerSize ( ) const
virtual

Returns the space available for widgets inside the container.

Returns
Size of the container

Reimplemented in tgui::ChildWindow, tgui::Group, tgui::Panel, and tgui::ScrollablePanel.

◆ getWidgetAtPos()

virtual TGUI_NODISCARD Widget::Ptr tgui::Container::getWidgetAtPos ( Vector2f pos,
bool recursive ) const
virtual

Returns the widget that is located at the given position.

Parameters
posThe location where the widget will be searched, relative to the container
recursiveIf the widget at the position is a container, should the search continue inside it instead of just returning the container? The child container may still be returned when recursive is true, but only if none of its children are located at the searched position.
Returns
Widget at the queried position, or nullptr when there is no widget at that location
Since
TGUI 1.2

Reimplemented in tgui::ScrollablePanel.

◆ getWidgetAtPosition()

virtual TGUI_NODISCARD Widget::Ptr tgui::Container::getWidgetAtPosition ( Vector2f pos) const
virtual

Returns the leaf child widget that is located at the given position.

Parameters
posThe location where the widget will be searched, relative to the parent of this container
Returns
Widget at the queried position, or nullptr when there is no widget at that location
Deprecated
Replaced by getWidgetAtPos in TGUI 1.2

◆ getWidgetIndex()

TGUI_NODISCARD int tgui::Container::getWidgetIndex ( const Widget::Ptr & widget) const

Returns the current index of a widget in this container.

Returns
Index of the widget, or -1 if the widget wasn't found in this container

◆ getWidgets()

TGUI_NODISCARD const std::vector< Widget::Ptr > & tgui::Container::getWidgets ( ) const
inline

Returns a list of all the widgets in this container.

Returns
Vector of all widget pointers

◆ keyPressed()

void tgui::Container::keyPressed ( const Event::KeyEvent & event)
overridevirtual

Reimplemented from tgui::Widget.

void tgui::Container::leftMouseButtonNoLongerDown ( )
overridevirtual

Reimplemented from tgui::Widget.
