## Detailed Description

The Fl_Browser widget displays a scrolling list of text lines, and manages all the storage for the text.

This is not a text editor or spreadsheet! But it is useful for showing a vertical list of named objects to the user.

Fl_Hold_Browser

Fl_Multi_Browser

Each line in the browser is identified by number. The numbers start at one (this is so that zero can be reserved for "no line" in the selective browsers). Unless otherwise noted, the methods do not check to see if the passed line number is in range and legal. It must always be greater than zero and <= size().

Each line contains a null-terminated string of text and a void * data pointer. The text string is displayed, the void * pointer can be used by the callbacks to reference the object the text describes.

The base class does nothing when the user clicks on it. The subclasses Fl_Select_Browser, Fl_Hold_Browser, and Fl_Multi_Browser react to user clicks to select lines in the browser and do callbacks.

The base class Fl_Browser_ provides the scrolling and selection mechanisms of this and all the subclasses, but the dimensions and appearance of each item are determined by the subclass. You can use Fl_Browser_ to display information other than text, or text that is dynamically produced from your own data structures. If you find that loading the browser is a lot of work or is inefficient, you may want to make a subclass of Fl_Browser_.

Some common coding patterns used for working with Fl_Browser:

// How to loop through all the items in the browser
for ( int t=1; t<=browser->size(); t++ ) { // index 1 based..!
printf("item #%d, label='%s'\n", t, browser->text(t));
}

Note: If you are subclassing Fl_Browser, it's more efficient to use the protected methods item_first() and item_next(), since Fl_Browser internally uses linked lists to manage the browser's items. For more info, see find_item(int).

## Constructor & Destructor Documentation

## ◆ Fl_Browser()

Fl_Browser::Fl_Browser | ( | int | X,
|  | int | Y,
|  | int | W,
|  | int | H,
|  | const char * | L = 0 )

The constructor makes an empty browser.

Parameters

  [in] | X,Y,W,H | position and size.
  [in] | L | label string, may be NULL.

## Member Function Documentation

## ◆ _remove()

FL_BLINE * Fl_Browser::_remove | ( | int | line | ) |
| protected

Removes the item at the specified `line`.

Caveat: See efficiency note in find_line(). You must call redraw() to make any changes visible.

Parameters

  [in] | line | The line number to be removed. (1 based) Must be in range!

Returns
  Pointer to browser item that was removed (and is no longer valid).

See also
  add(), insert(), remove(), swap(int,int), clear()

## ◆ add()

void Fl_Browser::add | ( | const char * | newtext,
|  | void * | d = 0 )

Adds a new line to the end of the browser.

The text string `newtext` may contain format characters; see format_char() for details. `newtext` is copied using the strdup() function, and can be NULL to make a blank line.

The optional void* argument `d` will be the data() for the new item.

Parameters

  [in] | newtext | The label text used for the added item
  [in] | d | Optional user data() for the item (0 if unspecified)

See also
  add(), insert(), remove(), swap(int,int), clear()

## ◆ bottomline()

void Fl_Browser::bottomline | ( | int | line | ) |
| inline

Scrolls the browser so the bottom item in the browser is showing the specified `line`.

Parameters

  [in] | line | The line to be displayed at the bottom.

See also
  topline(), middleline(), bottomline(), displayed(), lineposition()

## ◆ clear()

void Fl_Browser::clear | ( |  | ) |

Removes all the lines in the browser.

See also
  add(), insert(), remove(), swap(int,int), clear()

## ◆ column_char() [1/2]

char Fl_Browser::column_char | ( |  | ) | const
| inline

Gets the current column separator character.

The default is '\t' (tab).

See also
  column_char(), column_widths()

## ◆ column_char() [2/2]

void Fl_Browser::column_char | ( | char | c | ) |
| inline

Sets the column separator to c.

This will only have an effect if you also set column_widths(). The default is '\t' (tab).

See also
  column_char(), column_widths()

## ◆ column_widths() [1/2]

const int * Fl_Browser::column_widths | ( |  | ) | const
| inline

Gets the current column width array.

This array is zero-terminated and specifies the widths in pixels of each column. The text is split at each column_char() and each part is formatted into it's own column. After the last column any remaining text is formatted into the space between the last column and the right edge of the browser, even if the text contains instances of column_char() . The default value is a one-element array of just a zero, which means there are no columns.

Example:

Fl_Browser *b = new Fl_Browser(..);
static int widths[] = { 50, 50, 50, 70, 70, 40, 40, 70, 70, 50, 0 }; // widths for each column
b->column_widths(widths); // assign array to widget
b->column_char('\t'); // use tab as the column character
b->add("USER\tPID\tCPU\tMEM\tVSZ\tRSS\tTTY\tSTAT\tSTART\tTIME\tCOMMAND");
b->add("root\t2888\t0.0\t0.0\t1352\t0\ttty3\tSW\tAug15\t0:00\t@b@f/sbin/mingetty tty3");
b->add("root\t13115\t0.0\t0.0\t1352\t0\ttty2\tSW\tAug30\t0:00\t@b@f/sbin/mingetty tty2");

  column_char(), column_widths()

## ◆ column_widths() [2/2]

void Fl_Browser::column_widths | ( | const int * | arr | ) |
| inline

Sets the current array to `arr`.

Make sure the last entry is zero.

See also
  column_char(), column_widths()

## ◆ data() [1/2]

void * Fl_Browser::data | ( | int | line | ) | const

Returns the user data() for specified `line`.

Return value can be NULL if `line` is out of range or no user data() was defined. The parameter `line` is 1 based (1 will be the first item in the list).

Parameters

  [in] | line | The line number of the item whose data() is returned. (1 based)

Returns
  The user data pointer (can be NULL)

## ◆ data() [2/2]

void Fl_Browser::data | ( | int | line,
|  | void * | d )

Sets the user data for specified `line` to `d`.

Does nothing if `line` is out of range.

Parameters

  [in] | line | The line of the item whose data() is to be changed. (1 based)
  [in] | d | The new data to be assigned to the item. (can be NULL)

## ◆ display()

void Fl_Browser::display | ( | int | line,
|  | int | val = 1 )

For back compatibility.

This calls show(line) if `val` is true, and hide(line) otherwise. If `val` is not specified, the default is 1 (makes the line visible).

See also
  show(int), hide(int), display(), visible(), make_visible()

## ◆ displayed()

int Fl_Browser::displayed | ( | int | line | ) | const
| inline

Returns non-zero if `line` has been scrolled to a position where it is being displayed.

Checks to see if the item's vertical position is within the top and bottom edges of the display window. This does NOT take into account the hide()/show() status of the widget or item.

Parameters

  [in] | line | The line to be checked

Returns
  1 if visible, 0 if not visible.

See also
  topline(), middleline(), bottomline(), displayed(), lineposition()

## ◆ find_line()

FL_BLINE * Fl_Browser::find_line | ( | int | line | ) | const
| protected

Returns the item for specified `line`.

Note: This call is slow. It's fine for e.g. responding to user clicks, but slow if called often, such as in a tight sorting loop. Finding an item 'by line' involves a linear lookup on the internal linked list. The performance hit can be significant if the browser's contents is large, and the method is called often (e.g. during a sort). If you're writing a subclass, use the protected methods item_first(), item_next(), etc. to access the internal linked list more efficiently.

Parameters

  [in] | line | The line number of the item to return. (1 based)

Return values

  item | that was found.
  NULL | if line is out of range.

See also
  item_at(), find_line(), lineno()

## ◆ format_char() [1/2]

char Fl_Browser::format_char | ( |  | ) | const
| inline

Gets the current format code prefix character, which by default is '@'.

A string of formatting codes at the start of each column are stripped off and used to modify how the rest of the line is printed:

- '@.' Print rest of line, don't look for more '@' signs
- '@@' Doubling the format character prints the format character once, followed by the rest of line
- '@l' Use a LARGE (24 point) font
- '@m' Use a medium large (18 point) font
- '@s' Use a small (11 point) font
- '@b' Use a bold font (adds FL_BOLD to font)
- '@i' Use an italic font (adds FL_ITALIC to font)
- '@f' or '@t' Use a fixed-pitch font (sets font to FL_COURIER)
- '@c' Center the line horizontally
- '@r' Right-justify the text
- '@N' Use fl_inactive_color() to draw the text
- '@B0', '@B1', ... '@B255' Fill the background with fl_color(n)
- '@C0', '@C1', ... '@C255' Use fl_color(n) to draw the text
- '@F0', '@F1', ... Use fl_font(n) to draw the text
- '@S1', '@S2', ... Use point size n to draw the text
- '@u' or '@_' Underline the text.
- '@-' draw an engraved line through the middle.

Notice that the '@.' command can be used to reliably terminate the parsing. To print a random string in a random color, use sprintf("@C%d@.%s", color, string) and it will work even if the string starts with a digit or has the format character in it.

## ◆ format_char() [2/2]

void Fl_Browser::format_char | ( | char | c | ) |
| inline

Sets the current format code prefix character to `c`.

The default prefix is '@'. Set the prefix to 0 to disable formatting.

See also
  format_char() for list of '@' codes

## ◆ full_height()

int Fl_Browser::full_height | ( |  | ) | const
| protectedvirtual

The height of the entire list of all visible() items in pixels.

This returns the accumulated height of all the items in the browser that are not hidden with hide(), including items scrolled off screen.

Returns
  The accumulated size of all the visible items in pixels.

See also
  item_height(), item_width(),
  incr_height(), full_height()

Reimplemented from Fl_Browser_.

## ◆ hide() [1/2]

void Fl_Browser::hide | ( |  | ) |
| inlinevirtual

Hides the entire Fl_Browser widget – opposite of show().

Reimplemented from Fl_Widget.

## ◆ hide() [2/2]

void Fl_Browser::hide | ( | int | line | ) |

Makes `line` invisible, preventing selection by the user.

The line can still be selected under program control. This changes the full_height() if the state was changed. When a line is made invisible, lines below it are moved up in the display. redraw() is called automatically if a change occurred.

Parameters

  [in] | line | The line to be hidden. (1 based)

See also
  show(int), hide(int), display(), visible(), make_visible()

## ◆ icon() [1/2]

Returns
  The icon defined, or NULL if none.

## ◆ icon() [2/2]

void Fl_Browser::icon | ( | int | line,
|  | Fl_Image * | icon )

Set the image icon for `line` to the value `icon`.

Caller is responsible for keeping the icon allocated. The `line` is automatically redrawn.

Parameters

  [in] | line | The line to be modified. If out of range, nothing is done.
  [in] | icon | The image icon to be assigned to the `line`. If NULL, any previous icon is removed.

## ◆ incr_height()

Text may contain format characters; see format_char() for details. `newtext` is copied using the strdup() function, and can be NULL to make a blank line.

The optional void * argument `d` will be the data() of the new item.

Parameters

  [in] | line | Line position for insert. (1 based) If `line` > size(), the entry will be added at the end.

See also
  swap(int,int), item_swap()

## ◆ swap() [2/2]

void Fl_Browser::swap | ( | int | a,
|  | int | b )

Swaps two browser lines `a` and `b`.

You must call redraw() to make any changes visible.

Parameters

  [in] | a,b | The two lines to be swapped. (both 1 based)

See also
  swap(int,int), item_swap()

## ◆ text() [1/2]

const char * Fl_Browser::text | ( | int | line | ) | const

Returns the label text for the specified `line`.

Return value can be NULL if `line` is out of range or unset. The parameter `line` is 1 based.

Parameters

  [in] | line | The line number of the item whose text is returned. (1 based)

Returns
  The text string (can be NULL)

## ◆ text() [2/2]

void Fl_Browser::text | ( | int | line,
|  | const char * | newtext )

Sets the text for the specified `line` to `newtext`.

Text may contain format characters; see format_char() for details. `newtext` is copied using the strdup() function, and can be NULL to make a blank line.

Does nothing if `line` is out of range.

Parameters

  [in] | line | The line of the item whose text will be changed. (1 based)
  [in] | newtext | The new string to be assigned to the item.

## ◆ textsize()

void Fl_Browser::textsize | ( | Fl_Fontsize | newSize | ) |

Sets the default text size (in pixels) for the lines in the browser to `newSize`.

This method recalculates all item heights and caches the total height internally for optimization of later item changes. This can be slow if there are many items in the browser.

It returns immediately (w/o recalculation) if `newSize` equals the current textsize().

You may need to call redraw() to see the effect and to have the scrollbar positions recalculated.

You should set the text size before populating the browser with items unless you really need to change the size later.

## ◆ topline() [1/2]

int Fl_Browser::topline | ( |  | ) | const

Returns the line that is currently visible at the top of the browser.

If there is no vertical scrollbar then this will always return 1.

Returns
  The lineno() of the top() of the browser.

## ◆ topline() [2/2]
