Efl_Canvas_Object* evas_object_table_child_get	(	const Evas_Table *	obj,
		unsigned short	col,
		unsigned short	row
	)

Get the child of the table at the given coordinates.

Note:: This does not take into account col/row spanning

Eina_List* evas_object_table_children_get ( const Evas_Table * obj )

Get the list of children for the table.

Note:: This is a duplicate of the list kept by the table internally. It's up to the user to destroy it when it no longer needs it. It's possible to remove objects from the table when walking this list, but these removals won't be reflected on it.

Parameters:

[in] obj The object.

Returns:: Children list

Since :: 2.3

void evas_object_table_clear	(	Evas_Table *	obj,
		Eina_Bool	clear
	)

void evas_object_table_col_row_size_get	(	const Evas_Table *	obj,
		int *	cols,
		int *	rows
	)

Note:: columns and rows are virtual entities, one can specify a table with a single object that takes 4 columns and 5 rows. The only difference for a single cell table is that paddings will be accounted proportionally.

Parameters:

[in]	obj	The object.
[out]	cols	Columns in table
[out]	rows	Rows in table

Since :: 2.3

Evas_Object_Table_Homogeneous_Mode evas_object_table_homogeneous_get ( const Evas_Table * obj )

Set how this table should layout children.

Todo: consider aspect hint and respect it.

EVAS_OBJECT_TABLE_HOMOGENEOUS_NONE If table does not use homogeneous mode then columns and rows will be calculated based on hints of individual cells. This operation mode is more flexible, but more complex and heavy to calculate as well. Weight properties are handled as a boolean expand. Negative alignment will be considered as 0.5. This is the default.

Todo: EVAS_OBJECT_TABLE_HOMOGENEOUS_NONE should balance weight.

EVAS_OBJECT_TABLE_HOMOGENEOUS_TABLE When homogeneous is relative to table the own table size is divided equally among children, filling the whole table area. That is, if table has WIDTH and COLUMNS, each cell will get _WIDTH / COLUMNS_ pixels. If children have minimum size that is larger than this amount (including padding), then it will overflow and be aligned respecting the alignment hint, possible overlapping sibling cells. Weight hint is used as a boolean, if greater than zero it will make the child expand in that axis, taking as much space as possible (bounded to maximum size hint). Negative alignment will be considered as 0.5.

EVAS_OBJECT_TABLE_HOMOGENEOUS_ITEM When homogeneous is relative to item it means the greatest minimum cell size will be used. That is, if no element is set to expand, the table will have its contents to a minimum size, the bounding box of all these children will be aligned relatively to the table object using evas_object_table_align_get(). If the table area is too small to hold this minimum bounding box, then the objects will keep their size and the bounding box will overflow the box area, still respecting the alignment. Weight hint is used as a boolean, if greater than zero it will make that cell expand in that axis, toggling the *expand mode*, which makes the table behave much like EVAS_OBJECT_TABLE_HOMOGENEOUS_TABLE, except that the bounding box will overflow and items will not overlap siblings. If no minimum size is provided at all then the table will fallback to expand mode as well.

Parameters:

[in] obj The object.

Returns:: Table homogeneous mode

Since :: 2.3

void evas_object_table_homogeneous_set	(	Evas_Table *	obj,
		Evas_Object_Table_Homogeneous_Mode	homogeneous

Eina_Bool evas_object_table_mirrored_get ( const Eo * obj )

Control the mirrored mode of the table. In mirrored mode, the table items go from right to left instead of left to right. That is, 1,1 is top right, not top left.

Parameters:

[in] obj The object.

Returns:: true if mirrored, false otherwise

Since (EFL) :: 1.1

Since :: 2.3

void evas_object_table_mirrored_set	(	Eo *	obj,
		Eina_Bool	mirrored
	)

Control the mirrored mode of the table. In mirrored mode, the table items go from right to left instead of left to right. That is, 1,1 is top right, not top left.

Parameters:

[in]	obj	The object.
[in]	mirrored	`true` if mirrored, `false` otherwise

Eina_Bool evas_object_table_pack	(	Evas_Table *	obj,
		Efl_Canvas_Object *	child,
		unsigned short	col,
		unsigned short	row,
		unsigned short	colspan,
		unsigned short	rowspan
	)

Add a new child to a table object or set its current packing.

Note that columns and rows only guarantee 16bit unsigned values at best. That means that col + colspan AND row + rowspan must fit inside 16bit unsigned values cleanly. You will be warned once values exceed 15bit storage, and attempting to use values not able to fit in 16bits will result in failure.

Parameters:

[in]	obj	The object.
[in]	child	The child object to add.
[in]	col	Relative-horizontal position to place child.
[in]	row	Relative-vertical position to place child.
[in]	colspan	How many relative-horizontal positions to use for this child.
[in]	rowspan	How many relative-vertical positions to use for this child.

Returns:: true on success, false on failure.

Since :: 2.3

Examples:: evas-table.c.

Eina_Bool evas_object_table_pack_get	(	const Evas_Table *	obj,
		Efl_Canvas_Object *	child,
		unsigned short *	col,
		unsigned short *	row,
		unsigned short *	colspan,
		unsigned short *	rowspan
	)

Get packing location of a child of table.

Parameters:

[in]	obj	The object.
[in]	child	The child object to add.
[out]	col	Pointer to store relative-horizontal position to place child.
[out]	row	Pointer to store relative-vertical position to place child.
[out]	colspan	Pointer to store how many relative-horizontal positions to use for this child.

[out]	vertical	Vertical padding

Since :: 2.3

void evas_object_table_padding_set	(	Evas_Table *	obj,

Examples:: evas-table.c.

Eina_Bool evas_object_table_unpack	(	Evas_Table *	obj,
		Efl_Canvas_Object *	child
	)

Remove child from table.

Note:: removing a child will immediately call a walk over children in order to recalculate numbers of columns and rows. If you plan to remove all children, use evas_object_table_clear instead.

Parameters:

[in]	obj	The object.
[in]	child	Child to be removed

Returns:: true on success, false on failure.

Since :: 2.3
