'Fixed' performs no -- automatic layout management. -- -- For most applications, you should not use this container! It keeps you -- from having to learn about the other Gtk+ containers, but it results in -- broken applications. With 'Fixed', the following things will result in -- truncated text, overlapping widgets, and other display bugs: -- -- * Themes, which may change widget sizes. -- -- * Fonts other than the one you used to write the app will of course -- change the size of widgets containing text; keep in mind that users may use -- a larger font because of difficulty reading the default, or they may be -- using Windows or the framebuffer port of Gtk+, where different fonts are -- available. -- -- * Translation of text into other languages changes its size. Also, -- display of non-English text will use a different font in many cases. -- -- In addition, the fixed widget can't properly be mirrored in right-to-left -- languages such as Hebrew and Arabic. i.e. normally Gtk+ will flip the -- interface to put labels to the right of the thing they label, but it can't -- do that with 'Fixed'. So your application will not be usable in -- right-to-left languages. -- -- Finally, fixed positioning makes it kind of annoying to add\/remove GUI -- elements, since you have to reposition all the other elements. This is a -- long-term maintenance problem for your application. -- -- If you know none of these things are an issue for your application, and -- prefer the simplicity of 'Fixed', by all means use the widget. But you -- should be aware of the tradeoffs. -- * Class Hierarchy -- | -- @ -- | 'GObject' -- | +----'Object' -- | +----'Widget' -- | +----'Container' -- | +----Fixed -- @ -- * Types Fixed, FixedClass, castToFixed, gTypeFixed, toFixed, -- * Constructors fixedNew, -- * Methods fixedPut, fixedMove, fixedSetHasWindow, fixedGetHasWindow, -- * Attributes fixedHasWindow, -- * Child Attributes fixedChildX, fixedChildY, ) where import Control.Monad (liftM) import System.Glib.FFI import System.Glib.Attributes import Graphics.UI.Gtk.Abstract.Object (makeNewObject) import Graphics.UI.Gtk.Types {-# LINE 105 "./Graphics/UI/Gtk/Layout/Fixed.chs" #-} import Graphics.UI.Gtk.Abstract.ContainerChildProperties {-# LINE 108 "./Graphics/UI/Gtk/Layout/Fixed.chs" #-} -------------------- -- Constructors -- | Creates a new 'Fixed'. -- fixedNew :: IO Fixed fixedNew = makeNewObject mkFixed $ liftM (castPtr :: Ptr Widget -> Ptr Fixed) $ gtk_fixed_new {-# LINE 119 "./Graphics/UI/Gtk/Layout/Fixed.chs" #-} -------------------- -- Methods -- | Adds a widget to a 'Fixed' container at the given position. -- fixedPut :: (FixedClass self, WidgetClass widget) => self -> widget -- ^ @widget@ - the widget to add. -> (Int, Int) -- ^ @(x,y)@ - the horizontal and vertical position to place -- the widget at. -> IO () fixedPut self widget (x, y) = (\(Fixed arg1) (Widget arg2) arg3 arg4 -> withForeignPtr arg1 $ \argPtr1 ->withForeignPtr arg2 $ \argPtr2 ->gtk_fixed_put argPtr1 argPtr2 arg3 arg4) {-# LINE 132 "./Graphics/UI/Gtk/Layout/Fixed.chs" #-} (toFixed self) (toWidget widget) (fromIntegral x) (fromIntegral y) -- | Moves a child of a 'Fixed' container to the given position. -- fixedMove :: (FixedClass self, WidgetClass widget) => self -> widget -- ^ @widget@ - the child widget. -> (Int, Int) -- ^ @(x,y)@ - the horizontal and vertical position to move the -- widget to. -> IO () fixedMove self widget (x, y) = (\(Fixed arg1) (Widget arg2) arg3 arg4 -> withForeignPtr arg1 $ \argPtr1 ->withForeignPtr arg2 $ \argPtr2 ->gtk_fixed_move argPtr1 argPtr2 arg3 arg4) {-# LINE 146 "./Graphics/UI/Gtk/Layout/Fixed.chs" #-} (toFixed self) (toWidget widget) (fromIntegral x) (fromIntegral y) -- | Sets whether the 'Fixed' widget is created with a separate 'DrawWindow' for -- its window or not.
