View Source wxMDIChildFrame (wx v2.4.3)

An MDI child frame is a frame that can only exist inside a wxMDIClientWindow, which is itself a child of wxMDIParentFrame.

Styles

This class supports the following styles:

All of the standard wxFrame styles can be used but most of them are ignored by TDI-based MDI implementations.

Remark: Although internally an MDI child frame is a child of the MDI client window, in wxWidgets you create it as a child of wxMDIParentFrame. In fact, you can usually forget that the client window exists. MDI child frames are clipped to the area of the MDI client window, and may be iconized on the client window. You can associate a menubar with a child frame as usual, although an MDI child doesn't display its menubar under its own title bar. The MDI parent frame's menubar will be changed to reflect the currently active child frame. If there are currently no children, the parent frame's own menubar will be displayed.

Functions

activate(This)

-spec activate(This) -> ok when This :: wxMDIChildFrame().

Activates this MDI child frame.

maximize/2
restore/1

create(This, Parent, Id, Title)

-spec create(This, Parent, Id, Title) -> boolean()
                when
                    This :: wxMDIChildFrame(),
                    Parent :: wxMDIParentFrame:wxMDIParentFrame(),
                    Id :: integer(),
                    Title :: unicode:chardata().

Equivalent to create(This, Parent, Id, Title, []).

create/5

-spec create(This, Parent, Id, Title, [Option]) -> boolean()
                when
                    This :: wxMDIChildFrame(),

                    Title :: unicode:chardata(),
                    Option ::
                        {pos, {X :: integer(), Y :: integer()}} |
                        {size, {W :: integer(), H :: integer()}} |
                        {style, integer()}.

Used in two-step frame construction.

See new/4 for further details.

destroy(This)

-spec destroy(This :: wxMDIChildFrame()) -> ok.

Destroys the object

maximize(This)

-spec maximize(This) -> ok when This :: wxMDIChildFrame().

Equivalent to maximize(This, []).

maximize/2

-spec maximize(This, [Option]) -> ok when This :: wxMDIChildFrame(), Option :: {maximize, boolean()}.

Maximizes this MDI child frame.

This function doesn't do anything if IsAlwaysMaximized() (not implemented in wx) returns true.

See:

activate/1
restore/1

new()

-spec new() -> wxMDIChildFrame().

Default constructor.

new(Parent, Id, Title)

-spec new(Parent, Id, Title) -> wxMDIChildFrame()
             when
                 Parent :: wxMDIParentFrame:wxMDIParentFrame(),
                 Id :: integer(),
                 Title :: unicode:chardata().

Equivalent to new(Parent, Id, Title, []).

new/4

-spec new(Parent, Id, Title, [Option]) -> wxMDIChildFrame()
             when
                 Parent :: wxMDIParentFrame:wxMDIParentFrame(),
                 Id :: integer(),
                 Title :: unicode:chardata(),
                 Option ::

                     {size, {W :: integer(), H :: integer()}} |
                     {style, integer()}.

Constructor, creating the window.

See: create/5

restore(This)

-spec restore(This) -> ok when This :: wxMDIChildFrame().

Restores this MDI child frame (unmaximizes).

This function doesn't do anything if IsAlwaysMaximized() (not implemented in wx) returns true.
