Constructor & Destructor Documentation

wxBoxSizer::wxBoxSizer ( int  orient)

Constructor for a wxBoxSizer.

orient may be either of wxVERTICAL or wxHORIZONTAL for creating either a column sizer or a row sizer.


Member Function Documentation

virtual wxSizerItem* wxBoxSizer::AddSpacer ( int  size) [virtual]

Adds non-stretchable space to the main orientation of the sizer only.

More readable way of calling:

        if ( wxBoxSizer::IsVertical() )
        {
            wxBoxSizer::Add(0, size, 0).
        }
        else
        {
            wxBoxSizer::Add(size, 0, 0).
        }

Reimplemented from wxSizer.

virtual wxSize wxBoxSizer::CalcMin ( ) [virtual]

Implements the calculation of a box sizer's minimal.

It is used internally only and must not be called by the user. Documented for information.

Implements wxSizer.

Reimplemented in wxStdDialogButtonSizer, wxStaticBoxSizer, and wxWrapSizer.

int wxBoxSizer::GetOrientation ( ) const

Returns the orientation of the box sizer, either wxVERTICAL or wxHORIZONTAL.

virtual void wxBoxSizer::RecalcSizes ( ) [virtual]

Implements the calculation of a box sizer's dimensions and then sets the size of its children (calling wxWindow::SetSize if the child is a window).

It is used internally only and must not be called by the user (call Layout() if you want to resize). Documented for information.

Implements wxSizer.

Reimplemented in wxStdDialogButtonSizer, wxStaticBoxSizer, and wxWrapSizer.
