phoenix_title wx.html.HtmlCell

Internal data structure.

It represents fragments of parsed HTML page, the so-called cell - a word, picture, table, horizontal line and so on. It is used by wx.html.HtmlWindow and wx.html.HtmlWinParser to represent HTML page in memory.

You can divide cells into two groups : visible cells with non-zero width and height and helper cells (usually with zero width and height) that perform special actions such as color or font change.

class wx.html.HtmlCell(Object)

Possible constructors:

Internal data structure.


Methods



__init__(self)

Constructor.



AdjustPagebreak(self, pagebreak, known_pagebreaks, pageHeight)

This method is used to adjust pagebreak position.

The first parameter is a variable that contains the y-coordinate of the page break (= horizontal line that should not be crossed by words, images etc.). If this cell cannot be divided into two pieces (each one on another page) then it either moves the pagebreak a few pixels up, if possible, or, if the cell cannot fit on the page at all, then the cell is forced to split unconditionally.

Returns True if pagebreak was modified, False otherwise.

Parameters:
  • pagebreak (int) – position in pixel of the pagebreak.
  • known_pagebreaks (list of integers) – the list of the previous pagebreaks
  • pageHeight (int) – the height in pixel of the page drawable area
Return type:

tuple

ret_value, kp = container.AdjustPagebreak(p, kp, ph)
while ret_value:
    ret_value, kp = container.AdjustPagebreak(p, kp, ph)
Returns:( bool, pagebreak )


ConvertToText(self, sel)

Converts the cell into text representation.

If sel != None then only part of the cell inside the selection is converted.

Parameters:sel (wx.html.HtmlSelection) –
Return type:string


Draw(self, dc, x, y, view_y1, view_y2, info)

Renders the cell.

Parameters:
  • dc (wx.DC) – Device context to which the cell is to be drawn.
  • x (int) –
  • y (int) – Coordinates of parent’s upper left corner (origin). You must add this to m_PosX,m_PosY when passing coordinates to dc’s methods Example:

    dc.DrawText(“hello”, x + cell.PosX, y + cell.PosY)

  • view_y1 (int) – y-coord of the first line visible in window. This is used to optimize rendering speed.
  • view_y2 (int) – y-coord of the last line visible in window. This is used to optimize rendering speed.
  • info (wx.html.HtmlRenderingInfo) – Additional information for the rendering of the cell.


DrawInvisible(self, dc, x, y, info)

This method is called instead of Draw when the cell is certainly out of the screen (and thus invisible).

This is not nonsense - some tags (like wx.html.HtmlColourCell or font setter) must be drawn even if they are invisible!

Parameters:
  • dc (wx.DC) – Device context to which the cell is to be drawn.
  • x (int) –
  • y (int) – Coordinates of parent’s upper left corner. You must add this to m_PosX,m_PosY when passing coordinates to dc’s methods Example:

    dc.DrawText(“hello”, x + cell.PosX, y + cell.PosY)

  • info (wx.html.HtmlRenderingInfo) – Additional information for the rendering of the cell.


Find(self, condition, param)

Returns pointer to itself if this cell matches condition (or if any of the cells following in the list matches), None otherwise.

(In other words if you call top-level container’s Find it will return pointer to the first cell that matches the condition)

It is recommended way how to obtain pointer to particular cell or to cell of some type (e.g. HtmlAnchorCell reacts on wx.html.HTML_COND_ISANCHOR condition).

Parameters:
  • condition (int) – Unique integer identifier of condition
  • param (string) – Optional parameters
Return type:

wx.html.HtmlCell



GetDescent(self)

Returns descent value of the cell (m_Descent member).

See explanation:

_images/htmlcell_descent.png

Return type:int


GetFirstChild(self)

Returns pointer to the first cell in the list.

You can then use child’s GetNext method to obtain pointer to the next cell in list.

Return type: wx.html.HtmlCell

Note

This shouldn’t be used by the end user. If you need some way of finding particular cell in the list, try Find method instead.



GetHeight(self)

Returns height of the cell (m_Height member).

Return type:int


GetId(self)

Returns unique cell identifier if there is any, the empty string otherwise.

Return type:string


Returns hypertext link if associated with this cell or None otherwise.

See wx.html.HtmlLinkInfo. (Note: this makes sense only for visible tags).

Parameters:
  • x (int) –
  • y (int) – Coordinates of position where the user pressed mouse button. These coordinates are used e.g. by COLORMAP. Values are relative to the upper left corner of THIS cell (i.e. from 0 to m_Width or m_Height)
Return type:

wx.html.HtmlLinkInfo



GetMouseCursor(self, window)

Returns cursor to show when mouse pointer is over the cell.

Parameters:window (wx.html.HtmlWindowInterface) – interface to the parent HTML window
Return type:Cursor

See also

GetMouseCursorAt



GetMouseCursorAt(self, window, rePos)

Returns cursor to show when mouse pointer is over the specified point.

This function should be overridden instead of GetMouseCursorAt if the cursor should depend on the exact position of the mouse in the window.

Parameters:
Return type:

Cursor

New in version 3.0.



GetNext(self)

Returns pointer to the next cell in list (see htmlcell.h if you’re interested in details).

Return type: wx.html.HtmlCell


GetParent(self)

Returns pointer to parent container.

Return type: wx.html.HtmlContainerCell


GetPosX(self)

Returns X position within parent (the value is relative to parent’s upper left corner).

The returned value is meaningful only if parent’s Layout was called before!

Return type:int


GetPosY(self)

Returns Y position within parent (the value is relative to parent’s upper left corner).

The returned value is meaningful only if parent’s Layout was called before!

Return type:int


GetWidth(self)

Returns width of the cell (m_Width member).

Return type:int


Layout(self, w)

Layouts the cell.

This method performs two actions:

  • adjusts the cell’s width according to the fact that maximal possible width is w (this has sense when working with horizontal lines, tables etc.)
  • prepares layout (=fill-in m_PosX, m_PosY (and sometimes m_Height) members) based on actual width w

It must be called before displaying cells structure because m_PosX and m_PosY are undefined (or invalid) before calling Layout .

Parameters:w (int) –


ProcessMouseClick(self, window, pos, event)

This function is simple event handler.

Each time the user clicks mouse button over a cell within wx.html.HtmlWindow this method of that cell is called. Default behaviour is to call wx.html.HtmlWindow.LoadPage .

Parameters:
Return type:

bool

Returns:

True if a link was clicked, False otherwise.

New in version 2.7.0: (before OnMouseClick() method served a similar purpose).

Note

If you need more “advanced” event handling you should use HtmlBinderCell instead.



SetId(self, id)

Sets unique cell identifier.

Default value is no identifier, i.e. empty string.

Parameters:id (string) –


Sets the hypertext link associated with this cell.

(Default value is :ref:`wx.html.HtmlLinkInfo`(“”, “”) (no link))

Parameters:link (wx.html.HtmlLinkInfo) –


SetNext(self, cell)

Sets the next cell in the list.

This shouldn’t be called by user - it is to be used only by wx.html.HtmlContainerCell.InsertCell .

Parameters:cell (wx.html.HtmlCell) –


SetParent(self, p)

Sets parent container of this cell.

This is called from wx.html.HtmlContainerCell.InsertCell .

Parameters:p (wx.html.HtmlContainerCell) –


SetPos(self, x, y)

Sets the cell’s position within parent container.

Parameters:
  • x (int) –
  • y (int) –
