Detailed Description

A tree event holds information about events associated with wxTreeCtrl objects.

To process input from a tree control, use these event handler macros to direct input to member functions that take a wxTreeEvent argument.

Events using this class

The following event handler macros redirect the events to member function handlers 'func' with prototypes like:

void handlerFuncName(wxTreeEvent& event)

Event macros:

  • EVT_TREE_BEGIN_DRAG(id, func):
    Begin dragging with the left mouse button. If you want to enable left-dragging you need to intercept this event and explicitly call wxTreeEvent::Allow(), as it's vetoed by default. Also notice that the control must have an associated image list (see SetImageList()) to drag its items under MSW.
  • EVT_TREE_BEGIN_RDRAG(id, func):
    Begin dragging with the right mouse button. If you want to enable right-dragging you need to intercept this event and explicitly call wxTreeEvent::Allow(), as it's vetoed by default.
  • EVT_TREE_END_DRAG(id, func):
    End dragging with the left or right mouse button.
  • EVT_TREE_BEGIN_LABEL_EDIT(id, func):
    Begin editing a label. This can be prevented by calling Veto().
  • EVT_TREE_END_LABEL_EDIT(id, func):
    Finish editing a label. This can be prevented by calling Veto().
  • EVT_TREE_DELETE_ITEM(id, func):
    Delete an item.
  • EVT_TREE_GET_INFO(id, func):
    Request information from the application.
  • EVT_TREE_SET_INFO(id, func):
    Information is being supplied.
  • EVT_TREE_ITEM_ACTIVATED(id, func):
    The item has been activated, i.e. chosen by double clicking it with mouse or from keyboard.
  • EVT_TREE_ITEM_COLLAPSED(id, func):
    The item has been collapsed.
  • EVT_TREE_ITEM_COLLAPSING(id, func):
    The item is being collapsed. This can be prevented by calling Veto().
  • EVT_TREE_ITEM_EXPANDED(id, func):
    The item has been expanded.
  • EVT_TREE_ITEM_EXPANDING(id, func):
    The item is being expanded. This can be prevented by calling Veto().
  • EVT_TREE_ITEM_RIGHT_CLICK(id, func):
    The user has clicked the item with the right mouse button.
  • EVT_TREE_ITEM_MIDDLE_CLICK(id, func):
    The user has clicked the item with the middle mouse button.
  • EVT_TREE_SEL_CHANGED(id, func):
    Selection has changed.
  • EVT_TREE_SEL_CHANGING(id, func):
    Selection is changing. This can be prevented by calling Veto().
  • EVT_TREE_KEY_DOWN(id, func):
    A key has been pressed.
  • EVT_TREE_ITEM_GETTOOLTIP(id, func):
    The opportunity to set the item tooltip is being given to the application (call SetToolTip()). Windows only.
  • EVT_TREE_ITEM_MENU(id, func):
    The context menu for the selected item has been requested, either by a right click or by using the menu key.
  • EVT_TREE_STATE_IMAGE_CLICK(id, func):
    The state image has been clicked.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ wxTreeEvent()

wxTreeEvent::wxTreeEvent ( wxEventType  commandType,
wxTreeCtrl tree,
const wxTreeItemId item = wxTreeItemId() 
)

Constructor, used by wxWidgets itself only.

Member Function Documentation

◆ GetItem()

wxTreeItemId wxTreeEvent::GetItem ( ) const

Returns the item.

Note that the item may be invalid for wxEVT_TREE_SEL_CHANGED events when the previously selected item has been deselected and there is no new selection any longer, as it notably happens when deleting all tree control items.

◆ GetKeyCode()

int wxTreeEvent::GetKeyCode ( ) const

Returns the key code if the event is a key event.

Use GetKeyEvent() to get the values of the modifier keys for this event (i.e. Shift or Ctrl).

◆ GetKeyEvent()

const wxKeyEvent& wxTreeEvent::GetKeyEvent ( ) const

Returns the key event for EVT_TREE_KEY_DOWN events.

◆ GetLabel()

const wxString& wxTreeEvent::GetLabel ( ) const

Returns the label if the event is a begin or end edit label event.

◆ GetOldItem()

wxTreeItemId wxTreeEvent::GetOldItem ( ) const

Returns the old item index (valid for EVT_TREE_SEL_CHANGING and EVT_TREE_SEL_CHANGED events).

◆ GetPoint()

wxPoint wxTreeEvent::GetPoint ( ) const

Returns the position of the mouse pointer if the event is a drag or menu-context event.

In both cases the position is in client coordinates - i.e. relative to the wxTreeCtrl window (so that you can pass it directly to e.g. wxWindow::PopupMenu()).

◆ IsEditCancelled()

bool wxTreeEvent::IsEditCancelled ( ) const

Returns true if the label edit was cancelled.

This should be called from within an EVT_TREE_END_LABEL_EDIT handler.

◆ SetToolTip()

void wxTreeEvent::SetToolTip ( const wxString tooltip)

Set the tooltip for the item (valid for EVT_TREE_ITEM_GETTOOLTIP events).

Windows only.
