A top-level window is either a frame% or dialog% object.
(send a-top-level-window can-close?) → boolean? |
Refine this method with augment.
Called just before the window might be closed (e.g., by the window manager). If #f is returned, the window is not\/ closed, otherwise on-close is called and the window is closed (i.e., the window is hidden, like calling show with #f).
This method is not called by show.
Specification: Called before on-exit to check whether an exit is allowed. See on-exit for more information.
Default implementation: Calls can-close? and returns the result.
direction : (one-of/c 'horizontal 'vertical 'both) = 'both |
Centers the window on the screen if it has no parent. If it has a parent, the window is centered with respect to its parent’s location.
If direction is 'horizontal, the window is centered horizontally. If direction is 'vertical, the window is centered vertically. If direction is 'both, the window is centered in both directions.
(send a-top-level-window get-edit-target-object) |
→ (or/c (or/c (is-a?/c window<%>) (is-a?/c editor<%>)) false/c) |
Like get-edit-target-window, but if an editor canvas had the focus and it also displays an editor, the editor is returned instead of the canvas. Further, if the editor’s focus is delegated to an embedded editor, the embedded editor is returned.
See also get-focus-object.
(send a-top-level-window get-edit-target-window) |
Returns the window that most recently had the keyboard focus, either the top-level window or one of its currently-shown children. If neither the window nor any of its currently-shown children has even owned the keyboard focus, #f is returned.
See also get-focus-window and get-edit-target-object.
(send a-top-level-window get-eventspace) → eventspace |
Returns the window’s eventspace.
(send a-top-level-window get-focus-object) |
→ (or/c (or/c (is-a?/c window<%>) (is-a?/c editor<%>)) false/c) |
Like get-focus-window, but if an editor canvas has the focus and it also displays an editor, the editor is returned instead of the canvas. Further, if the editor’s focus is delegated to an embedded editor, the embedded editor is returned.
See also get-edit-target-object.
(send a-top-level-window get-focus-window) |
Returns the window that has the keyboard focus, either the top-level window or one of its children. If neither the window nor any of its children has the focus, #f is returned.
See also get-edit-target-window and get-focus-object.
x : (integer-in -10000 10000) |
y : (integer-in -10000 10000) |
Moves the window to the given position on the screen.
A window’s position can be changed by the user dragging the window, and such changes do not go through this method; use on-move to monitor position changes.
(send a-top-level-window on-activate active?) → void? |
active? : any/c |
Called when a window is activated or deactivated. A top-level window is activated when the keyboard focus moves from outside the window to the window or one of its children. It is deactivated when the focus moves back out of the window. Under Mac OS X, a child of a floating frames can have the focus instead of a child of the active non-floating frame; in other words, floating frames act as an extension of the active non-frame for keyboard focus.
The method’s argument is #t when the window is activated, #f when it is deactivated.
Refine this method with augment.
Called just before the window is closed (e.g., by the window manager). This method is not called by show.
See also can-close?.
Specification: Called by the default application quit handler (as determined by the application-quit-handler parameter) when the operating system requests that the application shut down (e.g., when the Quit menu item is selected in the main application menu under Mac OS X). In that case, this method is called for the most recently active top-level window in the initial eventspace, but only if the window’s can-exit? method first returns true.
Default implementation: Calls on-close and then show to hide the window.
(send a-top-level-window on-message message) → any/c |
message : any/c |
Specification: A generic message method, usually called by send-message-to-window.
If the method is invoked by send-message-to-window, then it is invoked in the thread where send-message-to-window was called (which is possibly not the handler thread of the window’s eventspace).
Default implementation: Returns #<void>.
(send a-top-level-window on-traverse-char event) → boolean? |
event : (is-a?/c key-event%) |
Specification: Attempts to handle the given keyboard event as a navigation event, such as a Tab key event that moves the keyboard focus. If the event is handled, #t is returned, otherwise #f is returned.
Default implementation: The following rules determine, in order, whether and how event is handled:
If the window that currently owns the focus specifically handles the event, then #f is returned. The following describes window types and the keyboard events they specifically handle:
editor-canvas% – tab-exit is disabled (see allow-tab-exit): all keyboard events, except alphanumeric key events when the Meta (X) or Alt (Windows) key is pressed; when tab-exit is enabled: all keyboard events except Tab, Enter, Escape, and alphanumeric Meta/Alt events.
canvas% – when tab-focus is disabled (see accept-tab-focus): all keyboard events, except alphanumeric key events when the Meta (X) or Alt (Windows) key is pressed; when tab-focus is enabled: no key events
text-field%, 'single style – arrow key events and alphanumeric key events when the Meta (X) or Alt (Windows) key is not pressed (and all alphanumeric events under Mac OS X)
text-field%, 'multiple style – all keyboard events, except alphanumeric key events when the Meta (X) or Alt (Windows) key is pressed
choice% – arrow key events and alphanumeric key events when the Meta (X) or Alt (Windows) key is not pressed
list-box% – arrow key events and alphanumeric key events when the Meta (X) or Alt (Windows) key is not pressed
If event is a Tab or arrow key event, the keyboard focus is moved within the window and #t is returned. Across platforms, the types of windows that accept the keyboard focus via navigation may vary, but text-field% windows always accept the focus, and message%, gauge%, and panel% windows never accept the focus.
If event is a Space key event and the window that currently owns the focus is a button%, check-box%, or radio-box% object, the event is handled in the same way as a click on the control and #t is returned.
If event is an Enter key event and the current top-level window contains a border button, the button’s callback is invoked and #t is returned. (The 'border style for a button% object indicates to the user that pressing Enter is the same as clicking the button.) If the window does not contain a border button, #t is returned if the window with the current focus is not a text field or editor canvas.
In a dialog, if event is an Escape key event, the event is handled the same as a click on the dialog’s close box (i.e., the dialog’s can-close? and on-close methods are called, and the dialog is hidden) and #t is returned.
If event is an alphanumeric key event and the current top-level window contains a control with a mnemonic matching the key (which is installed via a label that contains “\&”; see get-label for more information), then the keyboard focus is moved to the matching control. Furthermore, if the matching control is a button%, check-box%, or radio-box% button, the keyboard event is handled in the same way as a click on the control.
Otherwise, #f is returned.
(send a-top-level-window on-system-menu-char event) → boolean? |
event : (is-a?/c key-event%) |
Checks whether the given event pops open the system menu in the top-left corner of the window (Windows only). If the window’s system menu is opened, #t is returned, otherwise #f is returned.
| ||||||||||||||
width : (integer-in 0 10000) | ||||||||||||||
height : (integer-in 0 10000) |
Sets the size of the window (in pixels), but only if the given size is larger than the window’s minimum size.
A window’s size can be changed by the user, and such changes do not go through this method; use on-size to monitor size changes.
show : any/c |
If the window is already shown, it is moved front of other top-level windows. If the window is iconized (frames only), it is deiconized.
