ScrolledWindow objects are ControlsWindow objects with the following
extra methods:
- scrollbars ([wantx, wanty])
-
Create (or destroy) horizontal and vertical scrollbars. The arguments
specify which you want (default: both). The scrollbars always have
minimum
0
and maximum 32767
.
- getscrollbarvalues ()
-
You must supply this method. It should return a tuple
x, y
giving the current position of the scrollbars (between 0
and
32767
). You can return None
for either to indicate the
whole document is visible in that direction.
- updatescrollbars ()
-
Call this method when the document has changed. It will call
getscrollbarvalues
and update the scrollbars.
- scrollbar_callback (which, what, value)
-
Supplied by you and called after user interaction.
Which
will
be 'x'
or 'y'
, what
will be '-'
,
'-'
, 'set'
, '++'
or '+'
. For
'set'
, value
will contain the new scrollbar position.
- scalebarvalues (absmin, absmax, curmin, curmax)
-
Auxiliary method to help you calculate values to return from
getscrollbarvalues
. You pass document minimum and maximum value
and topmost (leftmost) and bottommost (rightmost) visible values and
it returns the correct number or None
.
- do_activate (onoff, event)
-
Takes care of dimming/highlighting scrollbars when a window becomes
frontmost vv. If you override this method call this one at the end of
your method.
- do_postresize (width, height, window)
-
Moves scrollbars to the correct position. Call this method initially
if you override it.
- do_controlhit (window, control, pcode, event)
-
Handles scrollbar interaction. If you override it call this method
first, a nonzero return value indicates the hit was in the scrollbars
and has been handled.
