phoenix_title wx.dataview.DataViewCtrl

wx.dataview.DataViewCtrl is a control to display data either in a tree like fashion or in a tabular form or both.

If you only need to display a simple tree structure with an API more like the older wx.TreeCtrl class, then the specialized wx.dataview.DataViewTreeCtrl can be used. Likewise, if you only want to display simple table structure you can use the specialized wx.dataview.DataViewListCtrl class. Both wx.dataview.DataViewTreeCtrl and wx.dataview.DataViewListCtrl can be used without defining your own wx.dataview.DataViewModel.

A wx.dataview.DataViewItem is used to represent a (visible) item in the control.

Unlike wx.ListCtrl, wx.dataview.DataViewCtrl doesn’t get its data from the user through virtual functions or by setting it directly. Instead you need to write your own wx.dataview.DataViewModel and associate it with this control. Then you need to add a number of wx.dataview.DataViewColumn to this control to define what each column shall display. Each wx.dataview.DataViewColumn in turn owns 1 instance of a wx.dataview.DataViewRenderer to render its cells.

A number of standard renderers for rendering text, dates, images, toggle, a progress bar etc. are provided. Additionally, the user can write custom renderers deriving from wx.dataview.DataViewCustomRenderer for displaying anything.

All data transfer from the control to the model and the user code is done through Variant which can be extended to support more data formats as necessary. Accordingly, all type information uses the strings returned from Variant.GetType .

styles Window Styles

This class supports the following styles:

  • wx.dataview.DV_SINGLE: Single selection mode. This is the default.
  • wx.dataview.DV_MULTIPLE: Multiple selection mode.
  • wx.dataview.DV_ROW_LINES: Use alternating colours for rows if supported by platform and theme. Currently only supported by the native GTK and OS X implementations but not by the generic one.
  • wx.dataview.DV_HORIZ_RULES: Display the separator lines between rows.
  • wx.dataview.DV_VERT_RULES: Display the separator lines between columns.
  • wx.dataview.DV_VARIABLE_LINE_HEIGHT: Allow variable line heights. This can be inefficient when displaying large number of items.
  • wx.dataview.DV_NO_HEADER: Do not show column headers (which are shown by default).

events Events Emitted by this Class

Handlers bound for the following event types will receive a wx.dataview.DataViewEvent parameter.

  • EVT_DATAVIEW_SELECTION_CHANGED: Process a wxEVT_DATAVIEW_SELECTION_CHANGED event.
  • EVT_DATAVIEW_ITEM_ACTIVATED: Process a wxEVT_DATAVIEW_ITEM_ACTIVATED event. This event is triggered by double clicking an item or pressing some special key (usually “Enter”) when it is focused.
  • EVT_DATAVIEW_ITEM_START_EDITING: Process a wxEVT_DATAVIEW_ITEM_START_EDITING event. This event can be vetoed in order to prevent editing on an item by item basis.
  • EVT_DATAVIEW_ITEM_EDITING_STARTED: Process a wxEVT_DATAVIEW_ITEM_EDITING_STARTED event.
  • EVT_DATAVIEW_ITEM_EDITING_DONE: Process a wxEVT_DATAVIEW_ITEM_EDITING_DONE event.
  • EVT_DATAVIEW_ITEM_COLLAPSING: Process a wxEVT_DATAVIEW_ITEM_COLLAPSING event.
  • EVT_DATAVIEW_ITEM_COLLAPSED: Process a wxEVT_DATAVIEW_ITEM_COLLAPSED event.
  • EVT_DATAVIEW_ITEM_EXPANDING: Process a wxEVT_DATAVIEW_ITEM_EXPANDING event.
  • EVT_DATAVIEW_ITEM_EXPANDED: Process a wxEVT_DATAVIEW_ITEM_EXPANDED event.
  • EVT_DATAVIEW_ITEM_VALUE_CHANGED: Process a wxEVT_DATAVIEW_ITEM_VALUE_CHANGED event.
  • EVT_DATAVIEW_ITEM_CONTEXT_MENU: Process a wxEVT_DATAVIEW_ITEM_CONTEXT_MENU event generated when the user right clicks inside the control. Notice that this menu is generated even if the click didn’t occur on any valid item, in this case wx.dataview.DataViewEvent.GetItem simply returns an invalid item.
  • EVT_DATAVIEW_COLUMN_HEADER_CLICK: Process a wxEVT_DATAVIEW_COLUMN_HEADER_CLICK event.
  • EVT_DATAVIEW_COLUMN_HEADER_RIGHT_CLICK: Process a wxEVT_DATAVIEW_COLUMN_HEADER_RIGHT_CLICK event. Notice that currently this event is not generated in the native OS X versions of the control.
  • EVT_DATAVIEW_COLUMN_SORTED: Process a wxEVT_DATAVIEW_COLUMN_SORTED event.
  • EVT_DATAVIEW_COLUMN_REORDERED: Process a wxEVT_DATAVIEW_COLUMN_REORDERED event.
  • EVT_DATAVIEW_ITEM_BEGIN_DRAG: Process a wxEVT_DATAVIEW_ITEM_BEGIN_DRAG event.
  • EVT_DATAVIEW_ITEM_DROP_POSSIBLE: Process a wxEVT_DATAVIEW_ITEM_DROP_POSSIBLE event.
  • EVT_DATAVIEW_ITEM_DROP: Process a wxEVT_DATAVIEW_ITEM_DROP event.
Notice that this control doesn’t allow to process generic mouse events such as
wxEVT_LEFT_DOWN in all ports (notably it doesn’t work in wxGTK). If you need to handle any mouse events not covered by the ones above, consider using a custom renderer for the cells that must handle them.

GetCurrentItem



GetCurrentItem(self)

Returns the currently focused item.

This is the item that the keyboard commands apply to. It may be invalid if there is no focus currently.

This method is mostly useful for the controls with DV_MULTIPLE style as in the case of single selection it returns the same thing as GetSelection .

Returns first selected item or an invalid item if none is selected.

GetSortingColumn(self)

Returns the wx.dataview.DataViewColumn currently responsible for sorting or None if none has been selected.

Return type: wx.dataview.DataViewColumn


HasSelection(self)

Returns True if any items are currently selected.

This method may be called for both the controls with single and multiple selections.

Calling this method is equivalent to calling GetSelectedItemsCount and comparing its result with 0 but is more clear and might also be implemented more efficiently in the future.

Return type:bool

New in version 2.9.3.

Parameters:
Return type:

wx.dataview.DataViewColumn





Select(self, item)

Select the given item.

In single selection mode this changes the (unique) currently selected item. In multi selection mode, the item is selected and the previously selected items remain selected.

Parameters:item (wx.dataview.DataViewItem) –


SelectAll(self)

Select all items.



SetCurrentItem(self, item)

Changes the currently focused item.

The item parameter must be valid, there is no way to remove the current item from the control.

In single selection mode, calling this method is the same as calling Select and is thus not very useful. In multiple selection mode this method only moves the current item however without changing the selection except under OS X where the current item is always selected, so calling SetCurrentItem selects item if it hadn’t been selected before.

Parameters:item (wx.dataview.DataViewItem) –

New in version 2.9.2.

See also

GetCurrentItem



SetExpanderColumn(self, col)

Set which column shall contain the tree-like expanders.

Parameters:col (wx.dataview.DataViewColumn) –


SetIndent(self, indent)

Sets the indentation.

Parameters:indent (int) –


SetRowHeight(self, rowHeight)

Sets the row height.

This function can only be used when all rows have the same height, i.e. when wx.dataview.DV_VARIABLE_LINE_HEIGHT flag is not used.

Currently this is implemented in the generic and native GTK versions only and nothing is done (and False returned) when using OS X port.

Also notice that this method can only be used to increase the row height compared with the default one (as determined by the return value of DataViewRenderer.GetSize()), if it is set to a too small value then the minimum required by the renderers will be used.

Parameters:rowHeight (int) –
Return type:bool
Returns:True if the line height was changed or False otherwise.

New in version 2.9.2.



SetSelections(self, sel)

Sets the selection to the array of DataViewItems.

Parameters:sel (DataViewItemArray) –


Unselect(self, item)

Unselect the given item.

Parameters:item (wx.dataview.DataViewItem) –


UnselectAll(self)

Unselect all item.

This method only has effect if multiple selections are allowed.
