Contents

Description

A widget for displaying both trees and lists.

Synopsis

Description

Widget that displays any object that implements the TreeModel interface.

The widget supports scrolling natively. This implies that pixel coordinates can be given in two formats: relative to the current view's upper left corner or relative to the whole list's coordinates. The former are called widget coordinates while the letter are called tree coordinates.

Represents the x and y coordinate of a point.

Constructors

treeViewNew :: IO TreeView Source

Creates a new TreeView widget.

treeViewNewWithModel :: TreeModelClass model => model -> IO TreeView Source

Create a new TreeView widget with model as the storage model.

Methods

treeViewGetModel :: TreeViewClass self => self -> IO (Maybe TreeModel) Source

Returns the model that supplies the data for this TreeView. Returns Nothing if the model is unset.

treeViewSetModel :: (TreeViewClass self, TreeModelClass model) => self -> model -> IO () Source

Set the TreeModel for the current View.

treeViewGetSelection :: TreeViewClass self => self -> IO TreeSelection Source

Retrieve a TreeSelection that holds the current selected nodes of the View.

treeViewGetHAdjustment :: TreeViewClass self => self -> IO (Maybe Adjustment) Source

Gets the Adjustment currently being used for the horizontal aspect.

treeViewSetHAdjustment Source

Arguments

:: TreeViewClass self 
=> self 
-> Maybe Adjustment

adjustment - The Adjustment to set, or Nothing

-> IO () 

Sets the Adjustment for the current horizontal aspect.

treeViewGetVAdjustment :: TreeViewClass self => self -> IO (Maybe Adjustment) Source

Gets the Adjustment currently being used for the vertical aspect.

treeViewSetVAdjustment Source

Arguments

:: TreeViewClass self 
=> self 
-> Maybe Adjustment

adjustment - The Adjustment to set, or Nothing

-> IO () 

Sets the Adjustment for the current vertical aspect.

treeViewGetHeadersVisible :: TreeViewClass self => self -> IO Bool Source

Query if the column headers are visible.

treeViewSetHeadersVisible :: TreeViewClass self => self -> Bool -> IO () Source

Set the visibility state of the column headers.

treeViewColumnsAutosize :: TreeViewClass self => self -> IO () Source

Resize the columns to their optimal size.

treeViewSetHeadersClickable :: TreeViewClass self => self -> Bool -> IO () Source

Set wether the columns headers are sensitive to mouse clicks.

treeViewGetRulesHint :: TreeViewClass self => self -> IO Bool Source

Query if visual aid for wide columns is turned on.

treeViewSetRulesHint :: TreeViewClass self => self -> Bool -> IO () Source

This function tells Gtk+ that the user interface for your application requires users to read across tree rows and associate cells with one another. By default, Gtk+ will then render the tree with alternating row colors. Do not use it just because you prefer the appearance of the ruled tree; that's a question for the theme. Some themes will draw tree rows in alternating colors even when rules are turned off, and users who prefer that appearance all the time can choose those themes. You should call this function only as a semantic hint to the theme engine that your tree makes alternating colors useful from a functional standpoint (since it has lots of columns, generally).

treeViewAppendColumn :: TreeViewClass self => self -> TreeViewColumn -> IO Int Source

Append a new column to the TreeView. Returns the new number of columns.

treeViewRemoveColumn :: TreeViewClass self => self -> TreeViewColumn -> IO Int Source

Remove column tvc from the TreeView widget. The number of remaining columns is returned.

treeViewInsertColumn :: TreeViewClass self => self -> TreeViewColumn -> Int -> IO Int Source

Inserts column tvc into the TreeView widget at the position pos. Returns the number of columns after insertion. Specify -1 for pos to insert the column at the end.

treeViewGetColumn :: TreeViewClass self => self -> Int -> IO (Maybe TreeViewColumn) Source

Retrieve a TreeViewColumn.

  • Retrieve the pos th columns of TreeView. If the index is out of range Nothing is returned.

treeViewMoveColumnAfter :: TreeViewClass self => self -> TreeViewColumn -> TreeViewColumn -> IO () Source

Move a specific column.

  • Use treeViewMoveColumnToFront if you want to move the column to the left end of the TreeView.

treeViewMoveColumnFirst :: TreeViewClass self => self -> TreeViewColumn -> IO () Source

Move a specific column.

treeViewSetExpanderColumn :: TreeViewClass self => self -> Maybe TreeViewColumn -> IO () Source

Set location of hierarchy controls.

  • Sets the column to draw the expander arrow at. If col is Nothing, then the expander arrow is always at the first visible column.

If you do not want expander arrow to appear in your tree, set the expander column to a hidden column.

treeViewGetExpanderColumn :: TreeViewClass self => self -> IO TreeViewColumn Source

Get location of hierarchy controls.

  • Gets the column to draw the expander arrow at. If col is Nothing, then the expander arrow is always at the first visible column.

treeViewSetColumnDragFunction :: TreeViewClass self => self -> Maybe (TreeViewColumn -> Maybe TreeViewColumn -> Maybe TreeViewColumn -> IO Bool) -> IO () Source

Specify where a column may be dropped.

  • Sets a user function for determining where a column may be dropped when dragged. This function is called on every column pair in turn at the beginning of a column drag to determine where a drop can take place.
  • The callback function take the TreeViewColumn to be moved, the second and third arguments are the columns on the left and right side of the new location. At most one of them might be Nothing which indicates that the column is about to be dropped at the left or right end of the TreeView.
  • The predicate pred should return True if it is ok to insert the column at this place.
  • Use Nothing for the predicate if columns can be inserted anywhere.

treeViewScrollToPoint :: TreeViewClass self => self -> Int -> Int -> IO () Source

Scroll to a coordinate.

  • Scrolls the tree view such that the top-left corner of the visible area is treeX, treeY, where treeX and treeY are specified in tree window coordinates. The TreeView must be realized before this function is called. If it isn't, you probably want to use treeViewScrollToCell.

treeViewScrollToCell :: TreeViewClass self => self -> Maybe TreePath -> Maybe TreeViewColumn -> Maybe (Float, Float) -> IO () Source

Scroll to a cell.

Moves the alignments of tree_view to the position specified by mbColumn and mbPath. If mbColumn is Nothing, then no horizontal scrolling occurs. Likewise, if mbPath is Nothing no vertical scrolling occurs. At a minimum, one of mbColumn or mbPath need to be provided. rowAlign determines where the row is placed, and colAlign determines where column is placed. Both are expected to be between 0.0 and 1.0. 0.0 means lefttop alignment, 1.0 means rightbottom alignment, 0.5 means center.

If Nothing is passed instead of rowAlign and colAlign, then the tree does the minimum amount of work to scroll the cell onto the screen. This means that the cell will be scrolled to the edge closest to its current position. If the cell is currently visible on the screen, nothing is done.

This function only works if the model is set, and path is a valid row on the model. If the model changes before the tree_view is realized, the centered path will be modified to reflect this change.

treeViewSetCursor :: TreeViewClass self => self -> TreePath -> Maybe (TreeViewColumn, Bool) -> IO () Source

Selects a specific row.

  • Sets the current keyboard focus to be at path, and selects it. This is useful when you want to focus the user's attention on a particular row. If focusColumn is given, then the input focus is given to the column specified by it. Additionally, if focusColumn is specified, and startEditing is True, then editing will be started in the specified cell. This function is often followed by a widgetGrabFocus to the TreeView in order to give keyboard focus to the widget.

treeViewSetCursorOnCell :: (TreeViewClass self, CellRendererClass focusCell) => self -> TreePath -> TreeViewColumn -> focusCell -> Bool -> IO () Source

Selects a cell in a specific row.

treeViewGetCursor :: TreeViewClass self => self -> IO (TreePath, Maybe TreeViewColumn) Source

Retrieves the position of the focus.

  • Returns a pair (path, column).If the cursor is not currently set, path will be []. If no column is currently selected, column will be Nothing.

treeViewRowActivated :: TreeViewClass self => self -> TreePath -> TreeViewColumn -> IO () Source

Emit the activated signal on a cell.

treeViewExpandAll :: TreeViewClass self => self -> IO () Source

Recursively expands all nodes in the tree view.

treeViewCollapseAll :: TreeViewClass self => self -> IO () Source

Recursively collapses all visible, expanded nodes in the tree view.

treeViewExpandToPath :: TreeViewClass self => self -> TreePath -> IO () Source

Make a certain path visible.

  • This will expand all parent rows of tp as necessary.
  • Only available in Gtk 2.2 and higher.

treeViewExpandRow Source

Arguments

:: TreeViewClass self 
=> self 
-> TreePath

path - path to a row

-> Bool

openAll - whether to recursively expand, or just expand immediate children

-> IO Bool

returns True if the row existed and had children

Opens the row so its children are visible.

treeViewCollapseRow Source

Arguments

:: TreeViewClass self 
=> self 
-> TreePath

path - path to a row in the tree view

-> IO Bool

returns True if the row was collapsed.

Collapses a row (hides its child rows, if they exist).

treeViewMapExpandedRows :: TreeViewClass self => self -> (TreePath -> IO ()) -> IO () Source

Call function for every expaned row.

treeViewRowExpanded Source

Arguments

:: TreeViewClass self 
=> self 
-> TreePath

path - A TreePath to test expansion state.

-> IO Bool

returns True if path is expanded.

Check if row is expanded.

treeViewGetReorderable :: TreeViewClass self => self -> IO Bool Source

Query if rows can be moved around.

treeViewSetReorderable :: TreeViewClass self => self -> Bool -> IO () Source

Check if rows can be moved around.

  • Set whether the user can use drag and drop (DND) to reorder the rows in the store. This works on both TreeStore and ListStore models. If ro is True, then the user can reorder the model by dragging and dropping rows. The developer can listen to these changes by connecting to the model's signals. If you need to control which rows may be dragged or where rows may be dropped, you can override the treeDragSourceRowDraggable function in the default DND implementation of the model.

treeViewGetPathAtPos :: TreeViewClass self => self -> Point -> IO (Maybe (TreePath, TreeViewColumn, Point)) Source

Map a pixel to the specific cell.

  • Finds the path at the Point (x, y). The coordinates x and y are relative to the top left corner of the TreeView drawing window. As such, coordinates in a mouse click event can be used directly to determine the cell which the user clicked on. This function is useful to realize popup menus.
  • The returned point is the input point relative to the cell's upper left corner. The whole TreeView is divided between all cells. The returned point is relative to the rectangle this cell occupies within the TreeView.

treeViewGetCellArea :: TreeViewClass self => self -> Maybe TreePath -> TreeViewColumn -> IO Rectangle Source

Retrieve the smallest bounding box of a cell.

  • Fills the bounding rectangle in tree window coordinates for the cell at the row specified by tp and the column specified by tvc. If path is Nothing or points to a path not currently displayed, the y and height fields of the Rectangle will be filled with 0. The sum of all cell rectangles does not cover the entire tree; there are extra pixels in between rows, for example.

treeViewGetBackgroundArea :: TreeViewClass self => self -> Maybe TreePath -> TreeViewColumn -> IO Rectangle Source

Retrieve the largest bounding box of a cell.

  • Fills the bounding rectangle in tree window coordinates for the cell at the row specified by tp and the column specified by tvc. If path is Nothing or points to a path not currently displayed, the y and height fields of the Rectangle will be filled with 0. The background areas tile the widget's area to cover the entire tree window (except for the area used for header buttons). Contrast this with treeViewGetCellArea.

treeViewGetVisibleRect :: TreeViewClass self => self -> IO Rectangle Source

Retrieve the currently visible area.

  • The returned rectangle gives the visible part of the tree in tree coordinates.

treeViewConvertBinWindowToTreeCoords Source

-> IO Point

(tx, ty) returns tree X and Y coordinates

Converts widget coordinates to coordinates for the tree (the full scrollable area of the tree).

treeViewGetEnableSearch :: TreeViewClass self => self -> IO Bool Source

Returns whether or not the tree allows to start interactive searching by typing in text.

  • If enabled, the user can type in text which will set the cursor to the first matching entry.

treeViewSetEnableSearch :: TreeViewClass self => self -> Bool -> IO () Source

If this is set, then the user can type in text to search through the tree interactively (this is sometimes called "typeahead find").

Note that even if this is False, the user can still initiate a search using the "start-interactive-search" key binding. In any case, a predicate that compares a row of the model with the text the user has typed must be set using treeViewSetSearchEqualFunc.

treeViewGetSearchColumn Source

Arguments

:: (TreeViewClass self, GlibString string) 
=> self 
-> IO (ColumnId row string)

returns the column the interactive search code searches in.

Gets the column searched on by the interactive search code.

treeViewSetSearchColumn Source

Arguments

:: (TreeViewClass self, GlibString string) 
=> self 
-> ColumnId row string

column - the column of the model to search in, or -1 to disable searching

-> IO () 

Sets column as the column where the interactive search code should search in.

If the sort column is set, users can use the "start-interactive-search" key binding to bring up search popup. The enable-search property controls whether simply typing text will also start an interactive search.

Note that column refers to a column of the model. Furthermore, the search column is not used if a comparison function is set, see treeViewSetSearchEqualFunc.

treeViewSetSearchEqualFunc :: (TreeViewClass self, GlibString string) => self -> Maybe (string -> TreeIter -> IO Bool) -> IO () Source

Set the predicate to test for equality.

  • The predicate must returns True if the text entered by the user and the row of the model match. Calling this function will overwrite the treeViewSearchColumn (which isn't used anyway when a comparison function is installed).

treeViewGetFixedHeightMode Source

Arguments

:: TreeViewClass self 
=> self 
-> IO Bool

returns True if the tree view is in fixed height mode

Returns whether fixed height mode is turned on for the tree view.

Sets the tip area of tooltip to the area path, column and cell have in common. For example if path is Nothing and column is set, the tip area will be set to the full area covered by column. See also tooltipSetTipArea. Note that if path is not specified and cell is set and part of a column containing the expander, the tooltip might not show and hide at the correct position. In such cases path must be set to the current node under the mouse cursor for this function to operate correctly. See also treeViewTooltipColumn for a simpler alternative.

treeViewGetTooltipContext Source

Arguments

:: TreeViewClass self 
=> self 
-> Maybe Point

point - the coordinates of the mouse or Nothing if a keyboard tooltip is to be generated

-> IO (Maybe TreeIter)

Just iter if a tooltip should be shown for that row

This function is supposed to be used in a widgetQueryTooltip signal handler for this TreeView. The point value which is received in the signal handler should be passed to this function without modification. A return value of Just iter indicates that there is a tree view row at the given coordinates (if Just (x,y) is passed in, denoting a mouse position), resp. the cursor row (if Nothing is passed in, denoting a keyboard request).
