The basic container widget can be used to group other widgets together. It's a simple blank rectangle and it can be used as a parent for other widgets. A widget can be added as a child to a container by adding the containers GHandle to the childs widget init structure:
GHandle ghContainer; GHandle ghChild; ... wi.g.parent = ghContainer; ... ghChild = gwinCreateXxx(0, &wi);
Border
The container widget can optionally be rendered with a border. To enable the border, GWIN_CONTAINER_BORDER has to be passed as a flag to the gwinContainerCreate() routine.
Note: If you want to use the container as a window-like element, you might want to take a look at the frame widget instead.
Example
The following example shows how to create a container and adding a button to it.
#include "gfx.h" static GHandle ghContainer; static GHandle ghButton; static void createWidgets(void) { GWidgetInit wi; // Apply some default values for GWIN gwinWidgetClearInit(&wi); // Apply the container parameters wi.g.show = FALSE; wi.g.width = 200; wi.g.height = 150; wi.g.y = 10; wi.g.x = 10; wi.text = "Container"; ghContainer = gwinContainerCreate(0, &wi, GWIN_CONTAINER_BORDER); wi.g.show = TRUE; // Apply the button parameters wi.g.width = 120; wi.g.height = 30; wi.g.y = 10; wi.g.x = 10; wi.text = "Button"; wi.g.parent = ghContainer; ghButton = gwinButtonCreate(0, &wi); // Make the container become visible - therefore all its children // become visible as well gwinShow(ghContainer); } int main(void) { // Initialize the display gfxInit(); // Attach the mouse input gwinAttachMouse(0); // Set the widget defaults gwinSetDefaultFont(gdispOpenFont("*")); gwinSetDefaultStyle(&WhiteWidgetStyle, FALSE); gdispClear(White); // Create the widget createWidgets(); while(1) { gfxSleepMilliseconds(1000); } return 0; }
