Overview

Geometry manager that arranges widgets in a grid

The grid command is used to communicate with the grid geometry manager that arranges widgets in rows and columns inside of another window, called the geometry master (or master window).

Class Method Details

.anchor(master, anchor = None) ⇒ Object

The anchor value controls how to place the grid within the master when no row/column has any weight. The default anchor is nw.

# File 'lib/ffi-tk/command/grid.rb', line 19

def self.anchor(master, anchor = None)
  Tk.execute('grid', 'anchor', master, anchor)
end

.bbox(master, col1 = None, row1 = None, col2 = None, row2 = None) ⇒ Object

With no arguments, the bounding box (in pixels) of the grid is returned. The return value consists of 4 integers.

The first two are the pixel offset from the master window (x then y) of the top-left corner of the grid, and the second two integers are the width and height of the grid, also in pixels.

If only col1 and row1 are given, then the bounding box for that cell is returned, where the top left cell is numbered from zero. If col2 and col2 are given as well, then the bounding box spanning the rows and columns indicated is returned.

def self.bbox(master, col1 = None, row1 = None, col2 = None, row2 = None)
  bbox = Tk.execute('grid', 'bbox', master, column1, row1, column2, row2)
  bbox.map(&:to_i)
end

.columnconfigure(master, index, options = {}) ⇒ Object

Query or set the column properties of the index column of the geometry master, master. The valid options are -minsize, -weight, -uniform and -pad. If one or more options are provided, then index may be given as a list of column indices to which the configuration options will operate on. Indices may be integers, window names or the keyword all. For all the options apply to all columns currently occupied be slave windows. For a window name, that window must be a slave of this master and the options apply to all columns currently occupied be the slave. The -minsize option sets the minimum size, in screen units, that will be permitted for this column. The -weight option (an integer value) sets the relative weight for apportioning any extra spaces among columns. A weight of zero (0) indicates the column will not deviate from its requested size. A column whose weight is two will grow at twice the rate as a column of weight one when extra space is allocated to the layout. The -uniform option, when a non-empty value is supplied, places the column in a uniform group with other columns that have the same value for -uniform. The space for columns belonging to a uniform group is allocated so that their sizes are always in strict proportion to their -weight values. See THE GRID ALGORITHM below for further details. The -pad option specifies the number of screen units that will be added to the largest window contained completely in that column when the grid geometry manager requests a size from the containing window. If only an option is specified, with no value, the current value of that option is returned. If only the master window and index is specified, all the current settings are returned in a list of “-option value” pairs.

def self.columnconfigure(master, index, options = {})
  Tk.execute('grid', 'columnconfigure', master, index, options)
end

.configure(*arguments) ⇒ Object

The arguments consist of the names of one or more slave windows followed by pairs of arguments that specify how to manage the slaves. The characters -, x and ^, can be specified instead of a window name to alter the default location of a slave.

def self.configure(*arguments)
  options, slaves = arguments.partition{|arg| arg.respond_to?(:to_tcl_options?) }
  options = options.first
  Tk.execute('grid', 'configure', *slaves, options.to_tcl_options?)
end

.forget(*slaves) ⇒ Object

Removes each of the slaves from grid for its master and unmaps their windows. The slaves will no longer be managed by the grid geometry manager. The configuration options for that window are forgotten, so that if the slave is managed once more by the grid geometry manager, the initial default settings are used.

# File 'lib/ffi-tk/command/grid.rb', line 93

def self.forget(*slaves)
  Tk.execute('grid', 'forget', *slaves)
end

.info(slave) ⇒ Object

Returns a list whose elements are the current configuration state of the slave given by slave in the same option-value form that might be specified to grid configure. The first two elements of the list are “-in master” where master is the slave’s master.

# File 'lib/ffi-tk/command/grid.rb', line 102

def self.info(slave)
  Tk.execute('grid', 'info', slave)
end

.location(master, x, y) ⇒ Object

Given x and y values in screen units relative to the master window, the column and row number at that x and y location is returned. For locations that are above or to the left of the grid, -1 is returned.

# File 'lib/ffi-tk/command/grid.rb', line 109

def self.location(master, x, y)
  Tk.execute('grid', 'location', master, x, y)
end

.propagate(master, boolean = None) ⇒ Object

If boolean has a true boolean value such as 1 or on then propagation is enabled for master, which must be a window name (see GEOMETRY PROPAGATION below). If boolean has a false boolean value then propagation is disabled for master. In either of these cases an empty string is returned. If boolean is omitted then the command returns 0 or 1 to indicate whether propagation is currently enabled for master. Propagation is enabled by default.

# File 'lib/ffi-tk/command/grid.rb', line 121

def self.propagate(master, boolean = None)
  Tk.execute('grid', 'propagate', master, boolean)
end

.remove(*slaves) ⇒ Object

Removes each of the slaves from grid for its master and unmaps their windows. The slaves will no longer be managed by the grid geometry manager. However, the configuration options for that window are remembered, so that if the slave is managed once more by the grid geometry manager, the previous values are retained.

# File 'lib/ffi-tk/command/grid.rb', line 161

def self.remove(*slaves)
  Tk.execute('grid', 'remove', *slaves)
end

.rowconfigure(master, index, options = None) ⇒ Object

Query or set the row properties of the index row of the geometry master, master. The valid options are -minsize, -weight, -uniform and -pad. If one or more options are provided, then index may be given as a list of row indices to which the configuration options will operate on. Indices may be integers, window names or the keyword all. For all the options apply to all rows currently occupied be slave windows. For a window name, that window must be a slave of this master and the options apply to all rows currently occupied be the slave. The -minsize option sets the minimum size, in screen units, that will be permitted for this row. The -weight option (an integer value) sets the relative weight for apportioning any extra spaces among rows. A weight of zero (0) indicates the row will not deviate from its requested size. A row whose weight is two will grow at twice the rate as a row of weight one when extra space is allocated to the layout. The -uniform option, when a non-empty value is supplied, places the row in a uniform group with other rows that have the same value for -uniform. The space for rows belonging to a uniform group is allocated so that their sizes are always in strict proportion to their -weight values. See THE GRID ALGORITHM below for further details. The -pad option specifies the number of screen units that will be added to the largest window contained completely in that row when the grid geometry manager requests a size from the containing window. If only an option is specified, with no value, the current value of that option is returned. If only the master window and index is specified, all the current settings are returned in a list of “-option value” pairs.

def self.rowconfigure(master, index, options = None)
  Tk.execute('grid', 'rowconfigure', master, index, options.to_tcl_options?)
end

.size(master) ⇒ Object

Returns the size of the grid (in columns then rows) for master. The size is determined either by the slave occupying the largest row or column, or the largest column or row with a minsize, weight, or pad that is non-zero.

# File 'lib/ffi-tk/command/grid.rb', line 169

def self.size(master)
  Tk.execute('grid', 'size', master)
end

.slave(*arguments) ⇒ Object

If the first argument to grid is suitable as the first slave argument to grid configure, either a window name (any value starting with .) or one of the characters x or ^ (see the RELATIVE PLACEMENT section below), then the command is processed in the same way as grid configure.

def self.slave(*arguments)
  Tk.execute('grid', 'slave', *arguments)
end

.slaves(master, options = {}) ⇒ Object

If no options are supplied, a list of all of the slaves in master are returned, most recently manages first. Option can be either -row or -column which causes only the slaves in the row (or column) specified by value to be returned.
