- In ODF 1 the Framework layer has a more complete View sub-system
- containing the following classes:
-
- FW_CView
- |
- |__ FW_CControl (we don't use the term "Gadget" anymore)
- | |__ FW_CNativeControl
- | |__ FW_CButton (standard push/radio/check buttons)
- | |__ FW_CPopupMenu
- | |__ FW_CScrollBar
- |
- |__ FW_CEditView (standard text-edit)
- |__ FW_CGrowBox
- |__ FW_CListBox (standard 1 column list box)
- |__ FW_CStaticText
- | |__ FW_CGroupBox (= label with frame to visually group
- other controls)
- |
- |__ FW_CSuperView (views which can have subviews and/or can
- scroll)
- |__ FW_CFrame
- |__ FW_CDialogFrame (support for modal dialogs)
- | |__ FW_CAboutFrame
- |__ FW_EmbeddingFrame
-
- In addition we provide utility classes such as:
-
- - FW_CRadioCluster (to handle a group of radio buttons)
- - FW_CViewTabber (to tab between views which can take the keyboard
- focus)
- - FW_KeyF (key filters to use with text-edits)
-
- Our goal was to support all the standard Mac toolbox controls in this
- release in order to make your part's UI development as painless as
- possible. Obviously there is still a lot of work to do to support more
- advanced UI objects (Table view, better text-edit, MS-Windows views,
- etc.) and we look forward to ODF 1 users' feedback to help us set our
- priorities for future releases!
